Today, I had a very important test. Last night, I'd had such bad leg pains that I couldn't sleep, so I took two very strong painkillers and went to sleep pain-free. I apparently accidentally overdosed, because when I woke up, I couldn't see properly or even stand up. And I missed my test. FML

Today, I had a headache when I woke up for school. I had final exams that day, so I took what I thought were 2 advils. They were two sleeping pills. FML

Today, I broke my toe. My mom didn't think it was necessary to take me to hospital, opting to give me some painkillers instead. They were so strong that I fell asleep for an hour during my exam. FML

Where are you?

Today, I had an important test at 7 in the morning, so I sat the alarm at 6 o'clock and fell asleep. Later I was woken up by a call from my friend asking me why I didn't show up for the test. It was 9:30. I'd sat the alarm at 6:00 PM. FML

Today, I took a major test, worth half my grade, not realizing that there were questions on the back of the sheet. FML

Today, I woke up in the hallway. I took a sleeping pill the night before to get a good sleep in for work, but it turns out it was too strong. I got dizzy and passed out on my way to my bed, fell in the hall and chipped my two front teeth, and slept there - straight through work the next day. FML

Today, as I was leaving for my chemistry exam, I stepped on one of the countless sheets of chemistry notes that littered the floor following last night's studying. I managed to slip and knock myself out in my own living room. FML

Today, I studied all night for a big test. I ended up falling asleep on the bus ride there. I woke up in a different province. FML

Today, after having stayed up all night studying, all the coffee I'd drank to keep me awake hit my gut with a vengeance. I ended up missing two exams because I was emptying my bowels into the toilet all morning. FML

Don't do drugs, kids

Today, I've been awake for nearly three days due to homework and my mom's wedding preparations, so I took some Adderall to keep me awake at school. I took too much, totally zoned out in class, became hopelessly fascinated by my own hand, and was accused of doing drugs. FML

Not prepared enough

Today, I had a maths test and I realised that I'd studied the wrong topics. The teacher said the test would be difficult and I stayed up till 1 a.m. just to be prepared. FML

Over-the-counter painkillers are not strong enough to give you that reaction just by taking two of them, even if they're "extra-strength". So YDI. There are only a few possibilities: - By "two very strong painkillers" you meant that you mixed two different types of painkillers. - You took painkillers that were prescribed rather than over-the-counter. Sub-possibilities: - - You took painkillers prescribed for someone else. - - You took more than the doctor-recommended dose. - You mixed painkillers with alcohol, or other drugs (whether prescribed or recreational) without knowing the effects/contacting your doctor. No matter how it happened, you did something pretty epically retarded.

Taking "strong" painkillers without any prescription or control = not too smart. Taking two doses simultaneously or mixing drugs = pretty frigging dumb. Sorry about your leg and test OP, but YDI no doubt.

...tylenol wouldn't do? I mean seriously two normal pain killers would be enough but two strong ones? I'm surprised your alarm even woke you up.

She took way too much medicine when she should have taken less, or none at all. How did she not deserve this ?

By "way too much" you mean "possibly one more than she should have". She probably just had a bad reaction to them.

The wording used in this post makes it seem like the OP was not only unfamiliar with the effects of this drug on her personally, but also generally unfamiliar with the drug, its dosage, and its proper usage. YDI for taking that much the night before an important test. People often get addicted to prescribed painkillers for a reason: they have very strong affects on the human neural system! Learn about the drugs that you are thinking of putting into your body, before you take them. You apparently have internet access, and it would have only taken a few minutes to research whatever it was that you took.

If you're assuming she's not familiar with them, you're assuming they're not prescription painkillers.

Go to the doctor. Leg pain could indicate a blood clot and the lack of sensation and vision loss could signify that the clot moved to your brain. Do you take birth control pills? They can cause clots.
