DOSE:
23 mg transdermal Nicotine (patch)
BODY WEIGHT: 130 lb
One day I was at a relatives house and I wanted to get high. I had no herb. No alcohol. Nothing. But then I remembered that my Uncle had been trying to quit smoking and had a bunch of Nicotine patches among other things. I have never been much of a smoker, Just a Cig now and then. I did a little reaearch and figured 7 would be a safe dosage. Now they are supposed to enter your bloodstream over the course of 12 hours, so having seven on is about 12mgs an hour. I put them on and went walking around Boston. It was fun I had a huge Nicotine buzz and I even smoked a Stog for good measure. Well after about 2 hours I got home and grubbed. Man I was loaded. I wasn't scared because I knew the LD50 was something like 81 mgs. I just sat around enjoyin a kind of light headed care-free stupor.

Then the nausea hit. I tried to get over it but couldn't. I ran to the bathroom and puked. I had never thrown up because of drugs before and it sucked. I thought I was done but I kept vomiting and had dry heaves after. Finally I took off the patches and sat around. It was over as soon as it started. I walked to the skate shop a bit tired but alot smarter. I didn't even pick up a ciggarette fo r at least 6 months after that.
