He's overdosed and I'm paralyzed

AH is currently overdosing. I'm paralyzed and don't know if I want to call an ambulance. This cycle has happened so many times, and when he wakes up in the hospital, he's agitated and nasty and resents the help.

I returned this afternoon after spending the night at a hotel, and he hadn't been acting quite right. I went out to an appointment and I came home and he's unresponsive. He's agreed he wants to go to detox and is supposed to go either tomorrow or Saturday.

His breathing is shallow and he won't wake up to pain stimuli. Should I just leave him be? I know I probably sound insensitive not calling an ambulance right away, but I hate the cycle that ensues when he is saved.
