would you be ok with being a braindead vegetable in case of a failed suicide? i mean, at least you'd be braindead and out of pain

[xXSufferingXx]

nobody wants to end up like that for obvious reasons, but then again tho... you WOULD be out of pain.
i doubt those vegetables feel anything.
i just would hope that they would turn off the respirator or whatever all that hospital shit is called

I wouldn't mind. Like you said, the hospital would eventually pull the plug anyway. Your consciousness would be long gone from the body. So, why not? I'm not paying to exist anymore, and I'm going to get what I want anyway. It's a win-win.

I fear that Couse I will be rotting in the street while being a dish for hungry animals...tho I would be reducing hunger. ( Moral logic) But if I'm brain-dead and can't feel or have consciousness at all then yes please.

 

[never mind me]

I don't really know how much or how little people feel or notice without consiousness. I read about a woman who survived a suicide attempt and was in a coma for several days before eventually recovering and she claims to have memories of the period in a coma. I am not sure, if I am willing to trust this information or if it is some pro life bullshit. But I have heard this notion before that noone really knows, if people in a coma still notice what is going on around them and are just unable to react in any way.

 

[bloodmoonhypothesis]

No cuz then I'll still be a useless financial burden on others, its better off to ctb and die than to ctb and still have others financially support a dead vegetable

 

[Oiled Sandwich]

Would rather be gone, but that might be the next best thing to be honest. Are you really there if you're a vegetable?

 

[gardenoflonely]

This is my worst fear omg, if I fail that horribly just let me go. Being forced to listen to my family with no escape sounds like torture. I'd only be okay with it if there was a way to ban them from coming in but if I'm unable to express that desire then I'm just stuck.

 

[Kokonoe]

yes absolutely. it would still be better than this.

 

[Forveleth]

If I am 100% not conscious then yes. My spouse has to pay a massive hospital bill after finally pulling the plug and I could be an organ donor. Maybe even get an honor walk. That would be dope.

 

[Quietist]

I fear that more than death itself.

The idea of possibly feeling pain or terror or being aware of my state yet unable to say or do anything about it.

Like locked-in syndrome.

Also, in the US economy/healthcare system? It's doubtful they'd even allow me to take up residence as a veg.

Shit, they don't even like helping me now.
