Alcohol and SN

[hadenough]

After reading through the posts here I have decided to go with SN but I like a few beers in the evening to relax me. I would certainly want a few beers before I CTB just to relax me. How would a few beers affect SN absorption? Is there anything, like antacids, that I could take to help absorption? Thanks

Not sure if it matters in this case but most suicides are probably at least tipsy when they do it.

Alcohol decreases the absorption rate and increases the likeliness of vomiting.

If you want to relax before taking SN consider taking a benzo 20-30 minutes before ingestion :)

Well I haven't been sick from drinking for many years, I guess I've built a tolerance. I'm concerned about absorption mostly - will it take longer? I don't have access to benzos so it will be the only thing that will relax me.

It will take longer but I couldn't tell you how long. You're taking Cimetidine/Ranitidine to reduce the amount of acid in your stomach. Alcohol is a bad idea as it will increase stomach acidity.

I can see the appeal of wanting to be relaxed during your attempt but is it worth decreasing the success rate? I also can't say on what scale drinking alcohol would affect this as there's too many variables.

I don't think any tolerance to alcohol will matter; more the fact SN is likely to induce vomiting on its own and with alcohol even more likely. If it's absorbing slower it's less likely you'll have absorbed a fatal dosage into the bloodstream if you throw up with alcohol vs no alcohol as an example.

At the end of the day there have probably been cases of success with the use of alcohol but I think it's in people's best interest to decrease the likeliness of having a failed attempt by any means possible. Vomiting seems to be the biggest risk along with not following an anti emetic regimen

Most alcohol is acidic, I'm not sure if it would effect SN or not but you want to avoid acid in your stomach because it'll cause pain.

I got some benzos off the darknet.

I'm planning on taking a course antiemetics for a few days before SN so would that lessen the risk of vomiting if I drank a beer?

I'm tempted to put a random amount in my coffee and drink it now. I don't have anti emetics
