If you take to much insulin will it or can it kill you?

This question has been bugging me! I've been thinking since i usually take insulin right before i go to sleep when im really tired and one time i took alittle too much and i felt horrible! If that does happen again and i do take alot could it possibly kill me? It's bugging me sooo much!!!

    It will not kill you the same day, but I've read many times that an excess of insulin makes your body getting old faster, as your body becomes insulin-resistant, that means insulin will not help you any more when you need to take it every day. A lot of health complications arise from that insulin resistant condition, as you could not be able to accomplish carbohydrates digestion in the future.

    Too much insulin will kill you. Sounds like you need to go back to your doc for re-education.
