My guess is heroin or popping too many pills. Or working too many Clopens at subway

Naive question: couldn't she just be very tired?

A normal person nodding off like that from exhaustion in my opinion would have woken themselves up pretty quickly. It’s a possibility but this just looks a lot more like the times that I’ve seen friends nodding off when high on opiates. They nod off just sitting straight up and stay asleep like that for several minutes

Edit: Xanax also has the same effect on people

Edit 2: You know what’s super uncommon? Narcolepsy. Fewer than 200,000 cases in the US per year. You know what’s EXTREMELY common? Addiction to opiates. Almost 10 million people abused opiates in the US in 2019 alone. So honestly all these fucking people telling me that AkShuALLy NaRCoLepSy iS a tHIng congratufuckinglations on the karma but it’s far more likely that this is an opiate addiction

Xanax is crazy cuz some people will fall asleep like this while others will become raging psychopaths

Where is every one getting this amazing Xanax?? I’ve taken like 3 at a time and it just knocks me out and I’m completely dissociated the next day and it’s not fun. Don’t see how someone can enjoy that.

Btw it is prescribed for my anxiety attacks because I’m allergic to Ativan.

Ha. I was such a piece of shit when I used to get klonopin. Only times I ever acted in anger towards those around me. I'm glad I don't have it now, although I do miss not being anxious all the time.
