OP mixes prescription tranquilizers with booze. Again. Her fiancé calls the cops, and OP spends 72 hours on an involuntary psych hold. She goes to /r/LegalAdvice, asking if she can sue her boo for false hospitalization.

OP - who, by the way, is going to hell for lying - tried to delete her idiocy, but too late!
My fiance lied to the police and told them I tried to overdose on Klonopin to get me placed into a psych hold to spite me. I did not overdose on Klonopin, I only took like 10 mgs and had a couple of beers. I was not trying to kill myself and I would have been just fine, but he decided to be a prick because we got into a fight and of course the police believed him because I have a history.
Yeah. She does have a history. Read on.
Whole thread. She deleted most of her stupid, but not all of it, as she argued with a lot of Reddit's top legal minds. Some excerpts from her testimony (hers are bolded):
"I do this all of the time and he knows that."
These are the words of someone who will die soon.
I hope so lol
This right here is why the hospitalization was legal and reasonable.
There was good reason for me to be hospitalized, now I definitely have a bunch of necessary and predictable bills that I understand are my fault and mine alone.
Ftfy.
Omg, it's not a big deal. I would have been fine, I've done way more and survived.
Regardless of what you think, it is a big deal. Source: you have been involuntarily hospitalized for it at least once.
I've been hospitalized for it before last year twice. I was only trying to kill myself the first time tho
So my fiance can just abuse the system to get me locked up and no one gives a shit? Great.
A bit of self-awareness, for once
Background pharmacology details. TLDR, 10 milligrams of Klonopin is not a small dose. It's a die-like-Bon-Scott dose.
Legal scholars of BOLA find that OP doesn't let her mental illness stop her from posting terrible content online teehee . One eBOLA virus says it for all of us:
Oh my...her post history is interesting and she seems to hate men. I'd never hear of /r/GenderCritical but it's the female version of /r/Incels. I really feel for the poor fella who has to put up with her looney tunes bullshit. Then there's the copious drug use she constantly talks about. Sounds like a real catch.

10 mg of Klonopin isn't a small dose but it's not a mega dose either. The max allowed prescription is 2mg at a time (or maybe it's 2.5 mg at a time) so it's only 4 or 5 times the max allowed. And you build resistance to it too
n/a scatmunchies 2017-06-27
The largest pill is 2 mg, but thats not the "max allowed prescription." If you're taking it for seizures, you might take up to 20mg/day (probably in 2-3doses/day, tolerance dependent, etc.), and typical maintenance dose is 2 to 8 mg/day. But that's also enough to make most people very unconscious, even without booze; unless you're a long term user.
n/a mohkohnsepicgun 2017-06-27

Being only 1/8th hillbilly, I obviously have only a mere fraction of your wisdom in re Rx drug abuse . . . but 10 mg of clonazepam still sounds like Trouble.
n/a backltrack 2017-06-27
Super hard to OD on it, but super easy to get sectioned.
n/a ZagsAgain 2017-06-27
is it really hard to OD with it? seems like everyone in here is saying it's the way to check out
n/a backltrack 2017-06-27
By itself yes very hard. I was prescribed some benzo for sleep once. It's like most people die using beenzos or another class of depressants (barbiturates, alcohol, opiates) because of that gnarly respiratory depression.
And I think that people just look at oh no, they only prescribe it at 2mg doses therefore 10mg must kill you.
It won't if that's all you take, but since it's like a super drunk with even worse decision making you're liable to end up in the hospital or jail. The withdrawals could also kill you. None of this happened to me, I just started researching and was like... Oh fuck this whole class of drug.

It's not trolling if it actually happened. If you're so smart, what are you doing with your intelligence besides ODing on drugs and shitposting about it on Reddit?
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
Do you realize how many great people have had drug issues? I want to be the female Hunter S. Thompson. I don't even do drugs anymore, but all of my experiences were just fodder for a boom I'm writing. Kurt Cobain said something like, "this suffering will be good for my art". I am an artist above anything else and I don't even do drugs anymore. I've been clean going on a month now and I feel fantastic. You'll see in a couple of years when I'm a brilliant writer.

I hear ya. I dumped a few loads in some desperate whores. At least you didn't get knocked up.
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
And I am very thankful for that. All the drugs I was doing would have killed it anyways, or maybe not because with my own eyes I watched an extremely pregnant prostitute hit the crack pipe like it was her job. Sad.

Ok jesus christ. For all readers out there if you ever wonder why Vice is such flaming garbage it's because it's made up of people like this.
Lady HST is my literary idol. I went to journalism school because of him. And you are just like so many kids there in that you misunderstand one fundamental thing about him. He was a great writer in spite of the drugs, not because of them. His abilities as a writer were due to his own merit and nothing more. The drugs didn't make him a great writer, in fact all they did was make his time as a great writer unnecessarily short
Tell me what truly memorable pieces did he write between 1973 and 1993? The Lono book? Even if we rank that as anything more than average that's one thing worth remembering in 20 years. What memorable pieces did he write between the 80s and 9-11?
Kingdom of Fear came out because the Bush administration gave him a final kernel of inspiration but the fact of the matter is that the coke and the booze killed his writing after Fear & Loathing On The Campaign Trail.
And we only got what, 3 years of bush administration coverage out of him? When we could otherwise still be reading his take on the trump administration today.
He put a gun in his mouth at the same age that my grandparents were still running half marathons because he was so fucked up from being a junkie for 30 years straight that he was in a wheelchair shitting himself by his 60s.
And to be totally clear he was Hunter S. Thompson because he sat down at a typewriter every single day in the 60s and forced himself to learn how to write. I've known enough people like you to know you find every possible excuse to not sit down at your laptop and write for hours a day every single day.
I'm not denying the usefulness of psychedelics on the creative process. I am denying that you need to be a useless burnout to be the next Hunter Thompson. Especially since it's so much exponentially harder to become a professional writer today than in his time.
Hunter would have been Hunter with or without the drugs. If you don't believe that then you're doing exactly what he criticized The Merry Pranksters for. Using enlightenment as an excuse for drug seeking behavior.
You popping benzos and drinking too much isn't aiding you to be the next HST, it's just making you a stupid useless junkie.
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
The point I was trying to make is, I've wasted years of my life to drug addiction, there's no way around that. I can either be emo about it, or I could turn all of that suffering and misery into something positive: art. Which is what I'm choosing to do. Right now I'm just writing poetry, I've been told it has potential. I've always been a gifted writer, teachers told me this all through out my school years, but unfortunately the drugs have taken a toll. It's hard for me to form coherent sentences. Make fun of me all you want I don't care, I'm trying to do something positive with my life once. I'm tired of being an abject failure. I'm almost 25 goddamn years old and I have nothing to show for it, okay? I am serious about being a writer. Right now all I have is poetry to show for it, I'm still in the process of planning my book. I know I need to write more. I was going to buy a new keyboard because the one I got, the fucking keys stick. It's a piece of trash. Maybe crack cocaine fried my brain and I can't write for shit anymore, I don't know, but I'm at least going to try.
n/a Denny_Craine 2017-06-27
PM me some of your work. I'd be interested to read it.
What poets do you admire or consider influences?
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
I'm really into Sylvia Plato and where I'm from there is a local poet who I really admire and look up to. I don't want to say her name because she probably Googles her name, she's kind of a stuck up narcissist and a bitch in the best way, and she would immediately know it was me and I can't deal with that mess. :/
n/a Denny_Craine 2017-06-27
Ha! Only thing worse than pompous narcissists are pompous narcissists with talent lol
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
Ugh she's so talented, always winning slams and shit but she's so full of herself but omfg do I wish I could write like her. :/
n/a Denny_Craine 2017-06-27
Have you ever read any E.E. Cummings? If you're a fan of Plath you might like some of what he did. There's also a rapper named Sadistik aka Cody Foster who is heavily influenced by Plath
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
I have read some E. E. Cummings but not much honestly. I'll have to check that rapper out because I love rap music.
n/a Denny_Craine 2017-06-27
It's probably a dumb suggestion because you've almost certainly read him already but if on the off chance you haven't I can't recommend TS Eliot enough when it comes to dark poetry

Yea, taking any mental drug is just never been a fun ride for me, Acid is as far as i'm willing to go down that road and the hallucinations are crazy enough, it's much more fun to stick to Painkillers and such.
For Dramas sake i'm going to say snorting a bunch of Adderall is a good way to get a days work done.
n/a Plexipus 2017-06-27
More because snorting benzos is totally fucking pointless, but they don't call 'em bartards for nothing.
n/a Imgur_Lurker 2017-06-27
Why is snorting Benzos useless compared to the drugs you cut and snort?
It's a class of drug I don't mess with
n/a Plexipus 2017-06-27
Because its nasal bioavailability is garbage compared to other drugs people like to snort. Some drugs are more effective via nasal administration (or at least will give a rush as it will hit the bloodstream faster than ingesting). Not really true with benzos, and the people who snort them are people who end up with stuffed up nostrils and a bit of benzos in their tummy and they'd have just been better off eating them.
But people who are addicted to benzos aren't known for making the smartest life decisions in the first place, and before all the fentanyl-cut heroin flooded the US markets, mixing downers was pretty much the leading cause of overdose death.

n/a OniTan 2017-06-27
If it actually happened, then how is it bait?
n/a Prolixin 2017-06-27
I greatly exaggerated the post. What really happened was I was fucked up on pills and alcohol and fell down the stairs so my fiancé called an ambulance and I did two weeks in the psycho ward for that. This event I based my post on actually happened last year. I never wanted to sue him, or anything.
