"Unfortunately, online forums exist that detail how to dose sodium nitrite for suicide."
Yeah it's sure unfortunate that people who've decided life isn't for them have a peaceful way out...
"Furthermore, it has been recently discussed in popular news streams after a celebrity died of an overdose."
...what, just an overdose in general or someone in the public consciousness took sn?
Edit: Near the bottom of the article this is mentioned, some actor called Matthew Mindler. Though all the news articles say sodium nitrate instead...
I'm reading more and more reports that people are failing with SN. And the reports are really freaking me out like this one. I wonder if it has to do with purity. But people are failing and waking within days of doing SN with awful headaches etc. Am I going to have to do VSED because I can't handle failing with SN, I'm not happy after reading this stuff.
This is the same type of clueless guy that would fuck up an attempt with a gun. No idea what he's doing, no research, it sounds like he just swallowed SN from a spoon with no antiemetic. He might have just read about it in the NYT article and not researched further.
This is also potentially a scare-tactic article, the author's biases are very clear in their language.
