Modern antifreeze has bitterants added to make it extremely unpleasant to swallow bc of ppl poisoning themselves or children & animals drinking it bc of ethylene glycol's sweet taste. Drinking straight antifreeze would also likely make you vomit

I did
It was Christmas time
I mixed it with soda
It doesn't taste that bad but it's thick
I actually didn't vomit which surprise me because I thought I would
I only was dizzy at moments and urinated a lot
I only lasted maybe about 16 hrs
It takes up to 3 days to kill you
I suppose I missed the painful part because I wasn't able to make it to day 2
I'm impatient
So do it at your own risk
It is possible but that was my experience

Nope, it's naturally sweet & now at least in the US the manufacturers add stuff to make it taste horrible after some states passed laws abt it

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! So I can't do it. My brother moved to Texas to spend sometime with me and if it takes 3 days they will save me for sure.

My friend drank a full glass of pure ethylene glycol and despite not being found for 3 days, she did survive. However, she is now disabled. She has kidney failure, which means she has to self catheterise, she struggles with extreme tiredness and problems with mobility, she needs crutches to get around, she has been left with neurological issues such as vertigo. At the time she was found, she had gone blind and she needed to be resuscitated. She can't take a lot of medications now, even psych ones that might help her feel better in herself, and she has to have regular blood tests and faces more rounds of dialysis.

This method was actually my plan, though she didn't know that, but now I've seen what's happened to her, it makes me more wary in case I did survive and I'm left with a bunch more shit to deal with.

I wouldn't. It's extremely bitter due to the bitterants added. I shouldn't have to mention all of the consequences, @PinballWizard39 mentioned things that happened to their friend, which covers a lot I was going to mention. As others mentioned, it takes extremely long to die, and I believe the typical cause of death is organ failure, which would be painful as It happens. I won't tell you what to do, but I would suggest to find.a different method.
