Consequenses of a failed sn attempt?

[duingmann]

I will most likely take sn without any antiemetic or benzos because they are hard to get. I am thinking what happens if I fail and start puking the sn out of my body. What kind of permanent damage will i get?

Permanent damage is extremely unlikely with reversal, and even less so with vomiting. If you vomit, you'll just experience any potential damage from vomiting (strain on the neck, mallory-weiss tear.

The ones who survive with permanent damage might be too incapacitated to report back to us about their experiences. I would take experiences from people who survived an attempt using SN, with a grain of salt. Not because there's a reason to not believe them, but because of survivorship bias.

Some people here have shared their experiences of brain injuries after a failed SN attempt. I think this website is generally way too optimistic about SN. Not that it's a bad method... but if you are revived after nearly dying of hypoxia you're not going to spring out of the hospital bed with no ill effects...

I had never really considered this aspect of it before. Very scary to think about really since we can never be sure what happens after that last message.

Personally I am a "puked almost immediately" survivor but your thoughts are definately something I will consider when planning method for the next attempt

I will make sure to be in a place where i will not be found in many hours. Then I guess there is not a big chance of me surviving or getting revived after nearly dying?

I thought about the same. If you want something in life, you must earn it.

did you ask for help after puking?
and did you have the 2nd sn drink?
also prior to your sn attempt did you have any problems with your stomach?

Didn't ask for help, didn't have second drink as the puking was too violent there was no point, yes I have stomach problems since numerous ODs previously.

I read about someone being found & saved after 24hrs… :(

I think that sn is not an appropriate method when someone has stomach and esophageal problems. I do have a somewhat sensitive stomach for instance I cannot eat spicy foods and I am wondering if that translates into an extra chance of vomiting with sn.

This is a good thread to start with.

This is true, and there's no real way to know without objective, third-party, reputable forms of research publications across a large enough sample size. I'm not sure if this already exists.

You are probably right but unfortunately when you are desperate enough and in that frame of mind then you will try just about anything that has even the slightest chance of success. I haven't had any lasting problems from it but it probably didn't have much chance to get into my system.
