Carbon Monoxide or SN ?

[EfiLoneVolon]

Hello,

I already gather a lot of informations about these two different methods.
I would like to know different opinions about those and which one would you choose if you had to make a choice.
For the time being, I think I prefer CTB using MC (if I understand you can loose consciousness very quick if CO concentration is high) but it's less convenient and need more organization.

CO has at least two disadvantages compared to an inert gas: once you are breathing CO, there is no easy way back if you change your mind, and I've read that the chances of having permanent brain damage are higher in case of a failed attempt (or "rescue").

SN seems like a more final way, but CO2 seems like a more comfortable way to go. This is just my opinion however and I've never experienced either. Personally I'd use CO2, but this is just my opinion. If you have any doubts about your method just do more research and make sure your doing the right choice. This is a big decision to people, and shouldn't be rushed.
Choose a method you feel most comfortable with, both methods are peaceful ways to go, but sometimes you can panic and have a bad experience.

CO2 is not CO.

CO2 is not CO.

I didn't know this, I'm new to the forum, sorry but I did mean carbon monoxide. I also have dyslexia so the similar words are hard to see.

Breathing CO2 will also do the job, but has other disadvantages than CO.

What I learned from reading quite a bit about this, is that inert gasses like nitrogen or helium are preferred.

From what i read, nitrogen will be ideal but making a exit bag seem too complex and costly. If not disturb, CO seem quiet peaceful, only problem with this one, you can't do it everywhere (could harm somebody) but i have some idea about that.

I don't see any real problem with the exit bag. Getting the right tubing and flow regulator, and connecting these in the right way seems more difficult to me.

CO is better as long as the level of CO is 10000 PPM or more. At that level, it takes mere seconds until unconsciousness and not much more until death.

CO is better because you can do a test run in car or a tent without you in it before to measure how high the concentration in ppm goes with a CO meter and you can see if something goes wrong before going for real suicide. You cannot do a test run with SN.

I was thinking about using a large metal bowl in the middle of my room filled with briquettes and burning them to a point that there is no fire coming from it anymore, but still burning slowly. Smoke a lot of weed before, down a bottle vodka and then just go to sleep while it burns away. I'm just not sure about how long it would take to fill the room enough for a ticket to CTB.

Maybe that works, but, besides CO, it certainly also produces a lot of CO2 and smoke, both of which seem pretty unpleasant. Add to that the risk of waking up with brain damage, it doesn't seem a reliable and safe method.

SN has soo many advantages over gases. Eg, no chance of someone else being accidentally harmed. Much less chance of being found/revived, no known(?) chance of ending up a vegetable. Just easier and faster. Etc

CO looks pretty good to me. Cheap and accessible, straight forward in the method. Of course, there is the possibility that a stupid person trying this could burn down their house. Other than that, it's high on my list, but I can be a bit of a control freak, and I have a hard time trusting sn, and my own body's ability to accept it. If I woke the next morning from trying CO, I would simply try again. But sn? I would be crushed. And not in the mood to shop for some more.

I went back and forth for sometime over which of these two method to choose. Ultimately I decided SN would be easier and less complicated for me in my situation. At one point I did have all the necessary items for CO poisoning. I just could not find a reliable place to do it without risking the health of others. That was a big factor in my choice. I considered doing it in my car, but worried about it not being sealed enough and a good opportunity never really presented itself. I will say that CO seems more peaceful if executed correctly.

I have finally collected all the meds I need for for SN. Ive been grooming myself for this for some time. I just need the timing to be right. And by that I mean enough time alone to execute it. I expect some unpleasantness, but it will be brief and hopefully with my benzos I will have lost consciousness for some of it.
