How does one accidentally overdose on prescription pills? Does one think, "Oh, a handful isn't enough. Tonight I go for two handfuls!"

"Ooops, that's too many..." Falls to the ground.
Depends on what the pills are but "prescription" usually mean painkillers/sleep aids or antidepressants.

One gets usuallyt a habit out of those. So tyo have any effect you increase the dosage, since the withdraweal is awful shit, until you do too much and end up in hospital.

Happened to me once and i didnt mean to overdose or kill myself. I looked for it but it was partly accidental. Although is a sign of addiction, that's true.
