Is it possible to OD on ADs? What would happen if you took 30 times your normal dosage? I'm guessing not much because it takes to long for your body to react and they would be flushed out of your system before they had time to affect you too much.

They can kill you.
Everything is toxic at a certain dose. Too many Anti depressants and i think you can suffer seretonin syndrome.
That involves seizures, gnawing teeth and huge pupils. NOT GOOD.

I've never heard of seretonin syndrome. Is there such a thing?

Yes there is- and as Shaolin said, it's not good at all.

basically think of it this way. the only way you could get a syndrone or other side effects would be if you didnt overdose enough to kill you. generally, when you overdose, you will die if the hospital doesnt intervene

You can OD on ANYTHING. Even tylonal. (sp?)

Yeah, you can, but you won't get high off of the tylenol (not that I know of). BTW, 30 times your normal dosage is ABSOLUTELY fatal. I don't how much you're taking, how often, or what medicine. Still, you will die. They will wreak havoc on your liver and all of your plumbing that has to process all of that shit. It makes no sense to say that it won't get processed. THATS WHAT DRUGS DO! They get processed and take effect before they are excreted! By the way, I wasn't talking to grave.
