One of my most famous overdoses was in 1977. A beautiful 17 year old was pimped out by her stepfather into some shocking videos, and she took 30 Doridens to kill herself. We got her back.
So, she went to the library and read about it. She figured out that the capsules got gelled together in her stomach and turned into one giant pill, which released Doriden too slowly to kill her.
Next week, she took 100 Doriden dissolved in hot water.
That worked.
About 25-30 years ago, a preferred drug combination was Doriden and Tylenol IV with Codeine. It was referred to as “Fours and Doors” and was reputed to be similar in effect to heroin.
