      There’s also at least one article (well the only one I found was more recent in 2016 could have sworn I knew one from the 2000s, no amount of water in the one I read) out there of someone dying from drinking too much water while high. I want to say it was like 1-2 gallons in a fairly short amount of time, a few hours or something.

      That said I’ve been high a ton and never got close to that amount of water so stay hydrated just don’t down like a gallon in a couple hours, even extremely dehydrated I’m fairly certain our bodies aren’t meant to process that amount of water, though too lazy to check amounts.

        I remember there being a few cases of mdma ‘overdose’ in the late 90s/early 2000s that actually ended up being due to water toxicity.

      It’s important to note that she was also trying to hold in all of her urine. Refusing to pee when your bladder is in pain is a really bad thing to do!
