It all depends on what the mg was of the clonadine you took

I'm so sorry that your family has all passed away. I know that must be very very very painful. I hope you're still fighting for the will to live.
Have you been to grief counseling?

I think I got my answer. I was just prescribed colonizing 0.1 msgs and it say two a day. Last time I was on this medication was years ago and n rehab. It was given with alternate doses of phenobarbital. They had to discontinue the clonidine after first day because my bloodbpressure bottomed out so am a little concerned about how will I know that there is the same thing happening?

Ok I put a post up earlier my daughter is 4 and weighs 32 lbs her doctor put her dosage of clonidine from .02 to .03 at night to help her sleep because the .02 she doesn't sleep through the night she is adhd I was wondering if there would be any side affects to her health with the higher dose.Idk maybe stop breathing or something like that being she is so small if anyone has any help that would be great I was told one point for every 10 pounds I also have a 11 yr old son and he's on .03 that why I'm asking

So very sorry for the loss of your family member. I couldn't imagine that emotional feeling, then the terrible thing we call abuse I have been there so I completely understand why you did what you did. So did I, so let me tell you that it truly gets better. I can't say how long but it does, so please hang in there. Hope this helps. Wish I could help more in other ways. With a lot of love and concern I responded to your story.

Laura,

You might want to consult a local crisis center if your having thoughts of overdosing on clonodine...I get that ur parents family or friends at your age can seem indifferent but there's always someone that cares enough to listen if you reach out . Please take care,Kenie

Seroquel is a dangerous drug. Read some info on it and be careful. I stopped taking it after I researched it.

I'm 15 and 100 lbs
But you should be completely fine. I've been reading about overdoeses on clonidine and you'd have to take much more than that. I was actually planning to down the bottle maybe a little less than that.

I am so extremely sorry to hear of all you've been put through. I cannot imagine living through my two children dying, and I've been through a severely abusive marriage, as well. I really don't know what to say, except I want you to know I believe your life will be better without that person you felt you must live with. You are worth so much, though no one in your life (probably?) let you know this. I would have done the same as you, using whatever I had. Please, if you've any strength left, use every bit of it to seek out help you need to stop taking--or at least reduce the dosage of--the pain meds--and to be around people who care--they could be people at a hospital or anywhere--they don't have to be family, and they don't even have to be friends yet. I am on this forum only this once, as I, myself, was wondering about the lethal dose of clonidine--I am not killing myself, but when certain things happen, I do think of dying, because I think I am only a burden on others. But, would you let me know what has happened since your post? Somehow, somehow, may peace be with you.

Holy cow honey! I'm so sorry for your loss!! I lost my 20 year old daughter to opiates five yrs ago. Her Dad, my ex, took his own life fifteen months before that. Addiction related. My family barely talks to me since I lost my daughter. The stigma attached to addiction is awful. I'm alone too. I hope you get help and find a place to call your own. I've also thought of taking my life. It's always in the back of my mind. God bless you!

My son died Thursday, and I lost my daughter in 2011. I have absolutely no one, I mean no one left. My parents, my baby sister are all gone now. I lost my son to an overdose. I just went thru an abusive marriage & have a dozen scars to prove it. I left him 2 yrs. ago & came to see my half sister. Hadn't seen her since funeral. Since the 1st month I've been here, she has been abusing me. I only receive SS. So I'm stuck. With our severe fighting she wants me out in a week. I have no car, no friends, or family in this whole world. I have a cousin in WVA, but I'm in Florida. Well, yesterday morning I took a very high dose of Clonidine. I survived, but, barely. I'm in soooo much pain. I had severe hallucinations. Everything was blocked for me. Then a black cloth or dome was coming over my head and eyes, and I knew I was either going to die or be in a coma! Then all of a sudden a flash cut it in half & I woke up. Last night I had convulsions, shaking, plus I have been taking pain meds and ran out, so withdrawals upon that. More hallucinations, so intense it's too much to explain. I woke up like a paraplegic. Twisted beyond belief. I am 54, and a strong woman but only 5'6 & 130lbs. I managed to twist my body the way it should go, & stretched back to normal. I'm in so much pain. Now I'm scared of what I've done to my inner organs? My lungs hurt. I will be going to the E. R. shortly. Thanks for reading and as a lesson to all, don't take more than you should, unless you want to go through that....
