So long story short im considering CTB but if I go through with it I really sont want a failed attempt. Like I said im not set with anything yet but do any of you know if having caffeine before CTB idk helps or makes SI worse? I also haven't decided on a method so im all ears but it has to be painless. This is my first post BTW so sorry if I sound dumb.

I think caffeine would make the SI worse. That's why when I ctb i will dull my SI with a hefty dose of xanax. My method of choice will be SN

xanax blackout before you do it makes it so easy that you won't even remember doing it. I've tried
not necessarily recommending it* legal reasons

I agree. Caffeine can make anxiety worse. So it makes sense that it could heighten SI also. That's what I think.

Welcome to SaSu. Sorry life has brought you to this place. It depends on how caffeine affects you. Some people do not feel much from caffeine, others, it can make them very, very, jittery. So whether this makes your SI worse or not is partially dependent on what caffeine does to you personally.

I would be careful with caffeine, depending on your method also. If you are ultimately trying to get your brain activity to die and your heart to stop, you probably do not want to be taking a stimulant that will make your heart beat faster. I have no research to back this up. This is just a thought off the top of my head.
