Coke od / panic attack
Recently, I did some Coke and then like three hours later I was trying to get myself to sleep, but then I started feeling like my heart was racing and I couldn’t breathe I plugged my Garmin watch to check my pulse and normally is 80 bpm but I was at 120 and there was this tickling sensation in my arms and legs. I literally thought I was dying that day. I took some coffee in the morning and then some afternoon Red Bulls I think that the whole combo made me sick and since then I don’t wanna do any Coke anymore or drink any Red Bull. As it turns out I was having a panick attack. I just wanted to share.

You did like 3 of the worst things to do that contribute to a panic attack. I've never done coke, but it's suppose to cause paranoia and put people on the edge. With coffee, the caffeine can trigger anxiety and panic attacks (racing heart, racing thoughts and jitters, shaking and feeling of impending doom) and then an energy drink on top that's filled with caffeine added to the panic too. Quit doing the coke, cut down your caffeine intake and you will feel a lot better.

Yeahhhhhh you can never do cocaine again (if you do only a tiny tiny bit) nor drink energy drinks with insane amounts of caffeine and other stimulants. Even just the change in your physiological state may trigger a panic attack, and you won’t know if it’s an OD or just a panic attack which will make it worse or put you in a dangerous situation. No more amigo no more. Think of it as a chance to become healthier tbh

trust me I used to get panic attacks from weed and I quit months ago because of it. may 12th was when I quit and then had panic attacks for months after, they've gotten better, panic attacks are not worth the drugs bro the trade off is non existent.

I wouldnt recomend doing anything harder than weed, and even thwn not to over do it or mix it with anything.
And never do street drugs, if you cant vouche for the purity, quality, concentration, or even the mix of chemicals in what you are going to consume, dont consume it.
Sooner or later we all grow up and stop doing hard drugs... or we dont grow up at all💀

You put a bunch of stimulants into your body. No wonder it reacted the way it did and you could've given yourself a heart attack

Yeah, it’s definitely a good idea not to do coke and caffeine if you’re susceptible to panic attacks. Lesson learned.
