I think article that you have found is overly positive. Drowning is not the same for every situation, it can trigger different responses of the body and people report different experiences, from painless to agony

Yeah it did seem fairly positive didn't it . Just thinking post things can never be painless. I can't get N or SN now -I've been flagged up by the Uk supplier - they won't sell it to me

Yeah it did seem fairly positive didn't it . Just thinking most things can never be totally painless. I can't get N or SN now -I've been flagged up by the Uk supplier - they won't sell it to me

As soon as the fluid filled his lungs, all feelings of chilliness and pain would cease, the indescribable semi-delirium that accompanies anæsthesia would come on, with ringing in the ears and delightful visions of color and light, while he would seem to himself to be gently sinking to rest on the softest of beds and with the most delightful of dreams.

that sounds too good to be true, but i really wish it were. drowning is my back-up... as KiraLittleOwl has said, everyone experiences it differently, but from what i've read it seems that the less panic there is the less painful it will be.

Presumably there are other suppliers?

Some thoughts?

Just as I have recently been recommened that is the method that would cause the least upset, upon discovery of body.
Wow that article is great as it says that drowning is painless if you inhale water into your lungs. Here's just one quote from it:
"If death by drowning be inevitable, as in a shipwreck, the easiest way to die would be to suck water into the lungs by a powerful inspiration, as soon as one went beneath the surface. A person who had the courage to do this would probably become almost immediately unconscious, and never rise to the surface."

So here's a tentative plan. I'll take a boat out to the middle of the ocean so no one can "save" me. Take 25 grams of SN. Strap weights on me with ratchet straps.
Jump in the water and as soon as I'm in under the water inhale as much water into my lungs as I can. So then I'll be unconscious in a few seconds . And I sink to the bottom quickly unconscious with the SN as a backup. Does that seem like a good plan to finally escape this trap called life where what we are is just spoiling flesh on disintegrating bones as Ligotti said in his book the Conspiracy against the Human Race?

Never heard of that book- sounds interesting. I'll look it up for sure

I use to be against this method, then for it, now I'm against it. Yeah for some it's peaceful, while others it's very painful, so for this reason I'm against it.

Salt water is supposedly more painful than fresh too, right?
