I am new to the group, and I am looking at passing with the help of codeine phosphate, valium, percocet, and xanax. I will have more than 50 of each pill when I'm ready, which will be a few months from now. I am so grateful to have found all of you and to have someone to talk to (or write to:). Miss Clefable, I only joined last night and I have not had time yet today to really explore this forum. I live with many animals and identify more with animals than with people. That said, there is a point where their presence cannot help a person continue. JMO. I dread having to face taking them to the pound or finding some other solution that will be painful for all involved (people who want pets already have them, and mine are rescues, not pretty, etc.). I, like you, will need to hold onto something. It most likely will be a stuffed animal. May I ask, are you well informed about opiates as the method of deliverance? Their efficacy, side effects that might appear before death (vomiting, severe anxiety, etc.)? I have not read much positive data about this method, yet it is appears to be the easiest option. My dream would be to go to Switzerland and pay for Dignitas or one of the other clinics there. Are you grounded in this method and sure of it? I don't know what else to say at the moment. As I finish cleaning and readying myself for the day, you will be in my thoughts, and I'll write more later, if I hear from you.
