900units Insulin - Side Effects

Hello everyone.
I'm a 32 year old strength enthusiast. Have been training for a few years and not used any pharmaceuticals except what I have noted below.

I suffer from clinical depression and ADHD. A few months ago I went through my worst bout of depression and contemplated suicide. After researching various means I decided on using an overdose of Insulin.

I started my 1st day with 10iu..nothing. Then 30iu..nothing...kept escalating... 100iu.. 300iu...till in the end on April 19, 2014 I took 900units (Nine hundred) of Humalog Lispro direct release insulin. That's 3 vials. That gave me a severe hypoglycemia, a wretched one hour of pain , severe needle stings from the injections since my pen allowed me to only inject 60units at a time. No death.

I am back with my psychiatrist and also undergoing counseling for the past few months and glad to say my depression is under control.

What I wanted to know is are there any side effects because of it?
*Fat gain on the sites where I injected it?
*Any change in the LPL or HSL receptors in that area?
*I am asking because after going through a low carb diet for the past few weeks it looked like I am not losing any fat from my belly area (where I injected insulin). But previously when I used to cut carbs like I did..I used to lean out nicely. So did my suicide attempt change something in my body or perhaps my current diet and training is not as strict as it was before?

Thank you for your time.
Please note that currently my depression is completely under control. Also I put this query here and not on any diabetes site cause I don't suffer from diabetes.
 
900 units of slin is insane. I'm glad you are getting the help you need now.
 
Highly doubt that's a factor. You mention "when I used to cut carbs I would lean out nicely" the word "used to" is a key word, why don't you get some blood work done . Your not the same whipper snapper you used to be.
