Mine really doesnt count but it is kind of funny. One time I had a really bad case of bronchitis, was laying in bed coughing in my sleep and my husband got worried. He also felt guilty because he gave me the cold, so he woke me up and pushed me to take a couple of these cough tablets he had used himself (over the counter med). I tried to refuse but he argued with me and I finally agreed to take one of the two. Took it, tried to lay back down and go to sleep, but about 20 minutes later I started feeling strange. My heart started racing really fast, so I called him back in and said feel this, my heart is racing like Im running. (wasnt panicked just worried at that point). He feels it and gets a weird look and tells me my face is super red too.

So I sit there trying not to get upset, and all the sudden I am HIGH as a kite, like whoaa wtf. He is talking about getting the kids up to take me to the ER when the 'high' part hits so Im like "no wait a minute" and then my heart starts racing again so Im like okay yeah hospital. He walks out of the room and a few seconds later,, whoa high again. I call him back and said isnt that stuff in those pills what they were talking about on tv that teenagers are getting high on? He had no idea so I said give me the phone and phone book Im calling poison control.

So I get on the phone call them and explained the situation to the guy and ended with "So my question is, is this going to kill me or am I just high?" The guy legitimately laughed out loud and said "Yes Ma'am, your just high, it should wear off in the next 20 minutes but go to the hospital if it gets worse or things change". Whew.. scared the hell out of me. I dont know what is supposed to be fun about feeling like you just ran a mile with dips of high in between. I thought my heart was going to explode. Needless to say I always take child sized doses of cold medicine or any medicine because I realize I am child sized so I really cant take the typical adult dose of most medicines.
