      The Rhode Island Department of Health was giving away free Narcan at Providence Pride this weekend, so I picked some up. I’ll keep it on hand in just in case someone needs it. Go fuck yourself :)

      Everyone else: Narcan’s readily available in states and there’s very little risk to administering it. It’s a spray up the nose.

      (eta: context. My brother overdosed and you pretty much wished that others experience the same pain.)

        As a precaution, you should expect that the person who you give narcan to will become violent for you taking away their high. You should still save their life, but be careful and be prepared.

          That’s quite fair. People don’t tend to react well to becoming suddenly not-high. I don’t even react well to becoming suddenly not-asleep.
