First off, I personally want to recognize this amazing person for all they contributed here. Well thought out threads, filled with links to back everything up (always), and a true desire to want to leave a lasting positive contribution to this community they valued so much. For allowing them to speak their mind in a safe space, without being judged etc. Joe has left us with many many threads that will go on to help people make the best choices for themselves. They made too many well informed comments for me to link them all, but you can find them via searching the username; I have linked their originally authored threads below in the comments.

I hope the same for this thread. It was all our hope that it would help inform and educate people who may be also choosing this path.

This documentation was taken by a third party Joe trusted explicitly, and who I have complete trust in their accuracy and reliability. As previously mentioned, please refrain from speculation, since this negates all the safety measures we have taken for the sake of all involved.


Joe believed strongly in the concept of stepping into nothingness, for them, this was the ideal ending to what was a long time filled with pain, both mental and physical. Please respect this thread as if it was written by Joe. Please do not derail it or try to source within it. If there are questions, please make a separate thread and inquire that way, but I am kindly asking that any kind of reaction threads whether peaceful or potential intense reactions to what you may read below, etc do not directly include his username, so as to not mess with the amazing legacy of posts they have left us with. I respect the need and desire to discuss and I encourage it, but please let's do it in a respectful way.

Thank you.

Joe's Goodbye Thread and Protocol can be found here:


—————————

"Joe went into his protocol very dehydrated and running on a complete lack of sleep, they do not suggest this. Take care of your body while you can"

***I have a rough theory that the speed of everything below may be partially attributed to the dehydration they were experiencing***

2:47 Preparing protocol OTC meds, plus 25mg Benadryl (vs the 50mg that is mentioned in their protocol)
2:50 Took the above meds with a small sip of water.
3:05 Took Meto
3:06 "Meto was bitter"
3:30 Preparing YT Brand SN x 3 (25g SN x 50mL water)
3:33 "anxiety wave"
3:36 "a little nervous, but excited"
3:39 "It was observed that allowing the SN to settle and then return to stirring is better than adding more water. Make sure all is dissolved."
3:42 Benzos, chewed up and taken with a small amount of water.
3:51 Glass 1 - "Very salty"
3:58 Mentioned bathroom, unclear if they got up in that moment.
4:00 Some low groans, it was the friends understanding that it's unlikely they got up as things seem to happen very fast.
4:01 "Second glass is a no go"
4:02 Spaced out breath, possibly in and out of consciousness, no longer responding clearly.
4:03 Temporary silence, microphone may have been obscured temporarily as audio picks back up clearly in a short time.
4:10 Small background noise
4:13 Small breath sounds, sounds may be compromised still. Friend believes they may be unconscious now as they are not responding.
4:15 Audio is clearer now, breath is more spaced out now.
4:16 Slower, ragged breath.
4:17 Slightly high pitched breath, still very spaced.
4:18 Ragged, slow breath, definitely unconscious.
4:19 Longer breath sounds, still very spaced out.
4:20 Slower breath, not labored, low grunt noise.
4:21 Very ragged, almost akin to a snore
4:22 Very spaced out breath sounds.
4:23 Even more spaced out breath sounds
4:24 Same as above.
4:25 VERY SLOW, final breath sound.
4:26-5:20 Silence


Now, before everyone goes off the rails asking why they did not throw up. This is pretty rare. There were no typos or mistaken noise, the person who gave me this account was VERY CLEAR that Joe did not throw up, they asked how they were feeling nausea wise a couple times, and it seemed like things were already starting to affect them in terms of hearing clearly etc. Essentially one minute they were talking, the next it was low groans, a check in on the second glass, and things QUICKLY escalated.

You can see the test results for this source (YT Brand) on the Goodbye Thread written by Joe at the top of this post.

As far as is my understanding, Joe went as quickly and as peacefully as is possible with this method. I do not personally recommend going into this dehydrated and I can't speak on whether it really had anything to do with absorbing the SN etc. If someone wants to make a thread discussing this, feel free, but please don't do it here.



Many, many thanks. I appreciate the hell out of our amazing mods, this community, and feel peace knowing my buddy is at peace.

I want to take a quick second and highlight the various very well researched and well written threads left by Joe. If these are relevant to you or maybe you want to bookmark them to help out someone else, here's a good chance to do so.








Much love, all. Be good to each other. Thank you for all the kind words thus far. I know that if Joe could see them they would be really happy<3

Thank you to the person who was with Joe in his final moments for documentation. That must not have been easy to do.

Glad his self deliverance seemed to be as peaceful as it can be with this method.

I mentioned this on his goodbye thread, but he really had a huge impact on this forum and so many of its users. I always respected how kind and patient he was with others, and his willingness to answer questions. He seemed like a good soul. Here's to a peaceful nothingness :heart:
