Confirmation of your Death

[eashanm]

So, once I take SN or any lethal substance, how can I confirm that I've died? Maybe say after 1 or 2 hours? Can I get someone to check on me after that time? Or someone will lie to me again?

What do you mean someone will lie to you again?
Anyway, you definitely can't assume you're dead after 1-2 hours from drinking it. Technically, it should take up to 4-8 hours but in reality you can never be sure. If your SN turns out to not be pure enough, there's a chance you won't die at all.

You cant do that lol, how are you supposed to know anyway. Either your wake up in your vomit and piss or you die for real.

Obviously, you probably can't have any proof by yourself that you died .

You cannot ask someone to check whether you're dead or not after a few hours bc they will immediately interfere your plans - by law they would be forced to interfere in many if not all countries on earth.

Do you mean- how will you alert authorities so that they find your body? Delayed email is one way. I plan on setting up a scheduled email to my solicitor to alert the police- if I do it. Probably scheduled for two days after the event. That way- if I fail, I can cancel the email before it sends. (Hopefully.)

I didn't understand the gravity of this question until I finally understood it. Imagine trying to ctb and waking up after few months or years on a hospital bed . I don't know what is more scary ..the current life or finding out you are not gone after few months/ years.I guess this wouldn't be the case with assisted deaths . You would never wake up again.

Completely understand. I suspect we are all afraid of failing an attempt and the possible consequences. Not just the health ones too. Sometimes I also think about how differently people may treat you after a failed attempt.

I agree, it's awful that we can't be assured a peaceful and reliable exit. That we really just have to take this enormous risk and wing it basically.

True. The worst thing about waking up is to find out , how gruesome it was and having experienced it once , to take a decision, again , whether to repeat it or not .

When we dissociate from reality, whatever state we are in becomes our reality and it feels as though others are lying to us.

That's exactly the issue

I agree, wait a couple days. Unless you actually want to be found before you might have died.
