Help Tylenol OD?

[Kokonoe]

Methods are very limited for me, so I have to try and work with what I've got. What amount of extra strength tylenol (500mg per pill I think) could do the job, if at all?
I've looked up the effects of a tylenol OD, and it does seem like it could at least potentially kill me, but I'm not sure how reliably. The side effects don't seem to be too bad, but the chance of seizures scares me a lot (My sister nearly died from seizures and I have been horrified of them ever since, I start crying whenever they're even mentioned), and that possibility alone is the main reason I haven't tried the method yet. So, if this method potentially could work, is there a dose that would minimize or avoid the chances of experiencing seizures during the OD?

i am not giving advice but if it were me I would never do this. Too unreliable.

I know it's unreliable but I really don't have much choice. It's this or stab the carotid artery in my neck and CTB that way, but I don't think I'd ever have the courage to do that.

It's an exceptionally painful, unreliable method that if it works could take weeks for you to die in excruciating pain. If you live (which is very likely), you may have permanent damage.

I appreciate that sounds like I am being a bit brutal in my response, but this is the reason it is not recommended as a means of suicide. Please reconsider and look for something else if you can.

In the past I took over 100 Tylenol pm over a course of 3 days. It caused a lot of pain and suffering. You will puke a ton, get dehydrated, and disoriented, but you are unlikely to ctb.

Spoiler: I work in pharmaceuticals.

Acetaminophen poisoning is long and painful. The rate of success is really low. Chances are you'll seek help before it'll work due to the symptoms. It's like having the worst stomach flu along with increased heart rate (possibly just from the anxiety). It can take up to 72 hours to peak. If you can make it through the worst of the symptoms, being successful is still low and you'll more than likely need a liver transplant.

Thank you all for the replies. I did not realize just how bad it was.

Glad I did not try it.

I doubt you could take enough and keep it down to be successful. You'd just end up with liver and kidney damage.
