Dying from gas poisoning also means dying from lack of oxygen

[DEATH IS FREEDOM]

Dying from gas poisoning also means dying from lack of oxygen. We need oxygen to survive. Almost all overdoses lead to death. You can die from nitrogen poisoning, helium poisoning and carbon dioxide poisoning. You can also die from oxygen poisoning. In the case of gas poisoning, you will suffer from both symtoms of gas poisoning and lack of oxygen. Unless you pass out immediately, you will feel these symptoms before you die. Symtoms of lack of oxygen: respiratory distress, palpitation, increased blood pressure, headache, memory loss, confusion, reduced reaction time, impaired judgement, cognitive problems, visual impairment, dizziness, fatigue, nausea and vomiting, cramps and tingling in fingers and toes. Divers suffering from deep intoxication (nitrogen narcosis) suffer from tunnel vision, anxiety, nausea and impaired responsiveness. These suicide methods described in books - how does the author know how the death process will be in these cases when he was alive when he wrote the book? Not even the process of assisted suicide can guarantee a peaceful and painless death. Some patients die relatively quickly but many patients hang on for hours or days. It is diffult to kill a human being. Both birth and life have been painful - so why should death be painless? A painless death is a romantic fantasy.

Pretty sure the body can't actually detect low oxygen levels

Yeah doesn't it detect the buildup of CO2?

Don't forget carbon monoxide poisoning!
