sorry, I didn't get what you meant, I've taken lorazepam for many years for sleep/nausea and it seems to me it would take a lot to lessen the pain from hanging. but really I don't know. Avoid pain is #1 for me. It seems that your method could take a few minutes or even more, although ultimately it's your choice, I think it would be painful. At this site, I have to be honest, so if you also want to lessen or avoid pain, I don't think hanging is the way to go (and during those last minutes, what if you change your mind?). Sounds like you've thought these things through but I wanted to mention, because that's what this site is for. I can't know how you feel, you know what is best for you, and I wish only the best for you too.
