Discussion Do you intend on being sober when you CTB?

[VegasLyra]

I personally can't imagine going through with it sober. The survival instinct would be insanely strong. I don't know when I'm gonna CTB, but when I will, I intend on dampening my SI by being drunk as hell. Alcohol inhibits the amygdala (the part of the brain mostly responsible for fear, anxiety, and fight-or-flight which constitute the SI) so doing it sober is not an opinion for me

Hell yes! I wanna be totally clear, as I expect the experience to be psychedelic anyway

Wouldn't it help if I drank? I think I might end up drinking

Alcohol would be too unpredictable for me. Maybe a bit of weed a few hours before, but not when I'm supposed to follow protocol. I'm more focused sober and too afraid something may go wrong if not of sober mind.

i would LOVE to be drunk when dying, bc i'm often happy and at peace when drunk. however i don't think i'd be able to get away with for 2 reasons: the first being i'm under 21 and don't have easy access to alcohol, the second being i plan on using SN and am too afraid the alcohol would trigger vomiting, as it has in the past when i got drunk. so unfortantely i plan on being stone cold sober, unless you count the sedative that'll put me to sleep

Not a chance I'm going out sober. Part of my method involves drugs anyway. Also, whenever I drink I always feel certain that I am ready to ctb.

if its possible and wont block whatever method i end up using then yes i think it'd make it easier

Got drunk once thinking it would help and it made me so relaxes I no longer wanted to die. I also do not want to risk messing up by being impaired.
