I'm scared that once I take it I'm gonna be terrified of the lack of oxygen and what not. How do I get over this?

I have an awful gag reflex so I'm positive that as soon as I start drinking it I'll just get sick and that will be it.

And yes, SN is not peaceful. Just imagine running and then getting the sensation of being out of breath and not being able to breathe and that's how you die 😭😭😭

This is simply wrong info. Youre talking about asphyxia, the lack of air sensation. With SN you can still breathe but the oxygen in your blood doesnt get to your tissues/organs causing hypoxia.

Because the situation will likely be like this, it's preferable to use Benzos with it. From my experience, I can tell you that the air hunger is no joke.
Also, extreme exhaustion, the inability to sit or stand, and the loss of control over your body are not things I would wish on anyone trying to end their life peacefully.

Good luck.

Did you have an attempt and this is what you experienced?

I tried almost 3g of SN and i experienced most of the symptoms.
Seemed pretty painless for @Carryline if you see his thread he said caffeine was more painful, he got unconscious in 16-20 minutes

Someone once said to me "you came into this world from pain, don't think you can leave the world without it," sadly I think it's true. There isn't really any pain free way to go.

It's one of the many things you have to consider when it comes to ctb. You will suffer in one way or another. Just don't rush into anything.

First off, I'm really sorry you had a bad experience.

From an informational standpoint, I think it's important to note that most of the reports we have of people experiencing very distressing/painful symptoms are from those who took much lower amounts than recommended by the protocol. Meanwhile, for those who took the recommended 25g and survived (because of being interrupted, receiving medical help, etc.) reports of mild symptoms and a short time to unconsciousness are by far the most common.

This is a big reason why 25g is the recommended amount, even though it's far more than is needed for lethality. The goal is to overwhelm your system so unconsciousness comes quickly, and you aren't awake to experience what would otherwise be very uncomfortable symptoms of SN poisoning.

@searchingforpeace What I've done is read the reports of people who followed the protocol, and determined whether I'd be okay with the type of symptoms they described. Of course, none of us can know with certainty how our bodies will react, but it atleast gives us baseline information of what the "average" experience is.

Yeah, I have a friend on here that CTBed via SN. She had no benzos. And took SN 3 hours after taking AE. The person who watched her die told me she was very nauseous, throwing up a lot, had a headache, dizziness, and felt weak. But, still smiled at him as she slipped away he said.

I know it was painless for many members here, but I'm talking about my personal experience, which wasn't good, by the way.

They watched her via video chat not in person.

Was your attempt recent? And did you do the protocol?

Thoughts of suicide is not being weak. Insensitive thing to say especially on a pro choice forum.

From experience, you don't feel short of breath, you feel weak, dizzy, sleepy, and nauseous.skin begins to turn pale.
But if you vomit everything you drank and don't pass out yet, there might still be time to save yourself, depending on the timing.
