SN - Pain, Convulsion, Discomfort

[raybd]

Hello everyone. My sole reason to go is health. After years of circling the drain... my time has come. But, SN (very old SN at that) is my only choice. Given my health, I am worried about Pain, Convulsions, Throwing up and other discomforts. I read an eye witness account here. Is this typical? Or uncommon? How quiet or peaceful is SN really? Is there no chance that you just take the SN and just sleep it off, never to wake?
I have an anti-emetic, Zantac and some Ibuprofen along with the SN. But, that's all I got.
Anyone know how age, weight, health and gender affect reaction to SN?
Given my health, do y'all have any suggestions how to make SN as quiet and peaceful as it can be?

There is no definitive answer to this, SN is going to at best be mildly painful and at worst a fucking nightmare where you are awake for up to 45 minutes being in agony. For me this eliminates it from being a viable painless method but I understand it's appeal given that all of the drugs that would actually give you a painless death aren't really available at the moment. I'm just personally not going to take the risk, even though I want to ctb.

I just read that eye witness account. Thanks for sharing that. I can't answer your question because I don't know. I'm in the same boat, I really only think I have SN as an option but I really wouldn't like for it to be super violent and painful. I can get over bad nausea if I have to, but I don't want to have a seizure or something. I just wish it was easy and painless..

This is a bit scary... I wonder if taking sleeping pills would prevent the agony maybe?

That's the thing. Info here and there about the actual SN experience sounds like YMMV. All over the place. The eye-witness account doesn't sound horrible but doesn't seem peaceful. But, what happens most commonly? That is what I like to find out. I don't expect snow in June or a heat wave in January... what happens average case.... and what factors would make people react more violently to the same SN thing?

Yes, but, you got to time it right so you don't make a mistake taking the SN and the sleep-aid doesn't kick in too soon etc. What I read somewhere. And people use a variety of sleep-aids, people tolerate them to different levels. Seemed a whole lot more stuff to worry about. I had a sleep-aid in my SN kit 1 year ago. Expired. Not getting any this time around. $ one issue. Availability from discreet source another.

I guess they might work similarly to the benzos.

Worth repeating: Yes, but, you got to time it right so you don't make a mistake taking the SN and the sleep-aid doesn't kick in too soon etc. What I read somewhere.

ALSO: A double dose of Tramadol is a suggestion I have seen... Tramadol is easier to find.
