Starvation suicide

[I’vehadenough]

After reading all these posts, it seems the only sure suicide is starvation. No one has ever lived through starvation lol. Anyone ever try this?

Seems like a slow painful way to go. Unless you live alone, it might be tough to do.

Starving is the least wise way to die. It can take from weeks to even months, it causes a lot of pain, and evetually you'll be hospitalized for it.

i have anorexia so i'm already living this.

Where did you read that the only sure suicide is starvation? That is 100% misinformation and starvation is NOT the way to go. Look up Wernickes Encephalopathy to see what happens to the body as a result of essential Thiamine/Vitamin B1 depletion from malnutrition. Do NOT do this to yourself. You will maim yourself and be permanently disabled, but you will not die.

Yeah, I do not recommend starvation one bit

I mean I don't know your situation but I can't imagine that starvation is the easiest method available to you. Jumping, night night, CO, helium and hanging are all immediate options for anyone who has access to transportation and a bit of cash.

A friend of mine tried it months without food although (only source of calories was coming from drinking beer) . He developed an autoimmune disorder that left him covered in painful sores and significant scarring. There are plenty of articles from reputable sources linking eating disorders to developing autoimmune disorders. Not to say that it will occur only that it might and you may want to read up on it.

When you're incapable of anything sometimes it happens by accident rather than design

Thanks, I'll read up on it. How come starvation didn't kill him?

The problem with those methods are that people sometimes survive them...braindead

Would you be hospitalized if no one finds you?

I've read that anorexics die by heart failure, weird how they die from starvation easier than someone not anorexic who can get all kinds of illnesses

Thanks for the info. I thought you would eventually die by not eating
I was reading up on vsed, hospices use this to kill people

The pain he experienced from the sores made him reconsider he went to several dermatologists until they were able to diagnose the problem and tied it directly to starvation. For him his conditions turned around.

I've linked to this story once before. VSED is very difficult to do on your own. It's painful after a few days, and you would likely need support. This woman's husband took 10 days to die, and he had round the clock care. https://www.phyllisshacter.com/the-vsed-choice/vsed-in-9-½-days/

I see. I guess that's why they say you can only do this method under medical care

malnourishment over the years weakens the heart, also overexercizing, bingeing, purging, laxative abuse, all that. you either recover or die, basically. here's a case https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3822148/ i wish they didn't refeed us and just let us die

Thanks for sharing, that seems painful. Damn, it seems you can't die. I was considering hanging, but so many things can go wrong with that too. I have to find a way :/

That's true. If I knew this would be my fate, I would've been anorexic early on, seems easier to die of a heart attack

yeah, you can drop any time from a cardiac arrest, your organs might shut down. eating disorders are the deadliest mental illnesses. i really hope by some chance this is how it takes me and no one will be able to save me. no need to off myself violently. but... probably not. knowing my luck, nothing i want is for me

I am very underweight due to Crohn's disease and gastroparesis, and further complicated by vestibular problems. My asshole GI had the nerve to threaten me with hospitalization and a feeding tube. She's a frickin GI but can't seem to wrap her head around the fact that I'm underweight due to DISEASE. But no matter why a person is underweight, refeeding should not be a thing. If a person can refuse chemo, dialysis, etc., they should be able to refuse a feeding tube.

Ironically, my recent heart work up showed that all was well. Kinda surprised me.

I hear you. I HAVE to die, there's no way to live w what I have, but I need to find a method that will surely kill me

felt this. if it was possible to astral project from my body and fucking strangle myself. i'd do it

Lol that would be awesome. I think I'll go with hanging, it worked for all these celebrities

 

[sleepy dog]

I thought about this method also a month ago. Dying after 3 days of no water and dying after a week of no food seems to be a myth. Watch Naked and Afraid, sometimes they don't get any food, and they survive 21 days. Somebody on another forum kept claiming people slowly and painfully lose their teeth, and don't die anyway. It seems it would be really slow death. And if others intervene, you would be too weak to stop them.

I hate GI doctors. Ever single one I have encountered have been pompous asshats. I went through a period where I could not eat without severe bloating/nausea/vomiting went from 180 to 120 in a matter of months. After being treated like garbage (threats of tube feeding blatant disregard and tests that felt violating) having 180k worth of tests done I was diagnosed with IBS. My dentist just recently told me to have my NP test me for celiac. 5 years later 375$ blood test it's frigging celiac. Another thing to consider with starvation is if you faint it unfortunately is fair game to be admitted and tube fed even if they can not admit you into psych.

going with hanging too. people here say there are so many methods when in fact... this is almost always the only one for a regular person. i just hate how uncertain it is. if i knew for sure im dying i wouldn't hesitate one bit, not at all.

But no matter why a person is underweight, refeeding should not be a thing. If a person can refuse chemo, dialysis, etc., they should be able to refuse a feeding tube.

yes i agree. there was this case in uk(?) where a woman with 20% chance of anorexia recovery was ruled by the court to be forcefuly fed, she wanted to die too. and they knew refeeding would triggered her trauma severely. i just don't get this logic at all, and they all acted so heroic about it. sickened me. pro life world is fucked up and upside down.

I think most doctors are pompous asshats! My real GI is actually very nice, but now days, they only let you see their assistants. I'm glad you were able to find out what your gut problem was, but it sure sucks that it took so much misery before it happened. Doctors really need to learn how to LISTEN to their patients.

There are a lot of methods that will hurt you, but possibly not kill you. I'm not dying of a disease, but I'm permanently living with something much worse, so I don't mind the pain of hanging, as long as it kills me

A doctor fucked me up, that's why I'm commiting suicide. There should be a law where if a Dr fucked up your life, he is responsible for killing you at your request

i meant if i knew that hanging would be successful for sure i'd go through with it faster. but i'm still doing it anyways. sorry to hear that, life is fucked up. hope you find peace

If my doctor never existed, I wouldn't be on here. He ruined my life.

Yeah, I would do it right now if I knew for sure I'd be dead. Maybe I'll try shooting a lethal amount of heroin while my head is in a noose, idk...let's keep each other posted on sure methods, I want you to find peace too

Just remember that most times it's the entire healthcare system failing and not a singular doctor at fault. I say that as someone who developed crps after a tendon repair(that failed) I had to go through him for the repeat surgery as well due to workers comp. It's never just the doctors fault. They usually have to see too many patients, and like us they too make mistakes. Unfortunately when they do its at a more devastating level than most. The entire system needs a change. Which is why we are all here. I find it repugnant that my chronic pain is a result of medical procedure yet I do not have the right to die with dignity , peace, and pain free. Regardless of the reasons we are here it saddens me that starvation is even a consideration to die with dignity.

That may be true and sorry to hear of your situation! In my case, it originally was the drs fault and he even admitted it...until he changed his notes to cover it up. Some drs should be in prison doing hard time, how often do we see that...almost never
