Right. But I was disputing your point that they are always taking the same “dose.” A person may start with 5 cc, but move up to 10 or 15 as they get more tolerance.

Then along comes a more potent batch and their 15 is like 30 of the last batch.

The point is that it is accidental.

I wouldn’t say accidental, either. Unintentional might be a better word choice. Any fool has to know that taking illegal drugs can kill you with the first or 20th dose.

I just spent some time with a father after a CPR on his son. Drug paraphernalia was present and he had a history of possession of illegal drugs. The term “drug overdose” is not accurate and family thinks it’s a suicide when you use it. I explained that any dose can kill at any time and it’s a crap shoot if it will take your life or not to use illegal drugs. Father was beating himself up because he didn’t see the “suicide” coming. I very much doubt it was a suicide, just accidental death using recreational drugs.
