Is there any way to ctb via anesthesia gone wrong? Is there any way to intentionally cause yourself to be given a wrong/fatal dose? I'm not having surgery, but I just want to know if this is a viable method

It is very difficult to buy anesthetics, it is not viable.

No I mean like if I hypothetically need anesthesia one day, could I somehow make myself be given the wrong dose so that it's fatal?

People do die due to complications from anesthesia, but it's very rare. And no, there is no way to make doctors give you an incorrect/fatal dose, unless you know how to do the Jedi mind trick or something.

It is almost impossible, there is a specialization only for anesthesia, it is almost impossible for an anesthetist to get the dose wrong.

I've heard that some drugs are dangerous in combination with anesthesia, but nothing legal and nothing that wouldn't otherwise be dangeorous, and I don't think there's anything you can really do to make them dose you incorrectly.

Ctb with anesthesia is very peaceful method, but it is impossible to buy this medicine.

They are pretty careful- from my experience. They weigh you, find out about any medication you are taking. They even check your teeth aren't wobbly- well- they asked me. For when they push a tube down into the throat to intubate you. Weird that your lungs can forget to breath but the heart remembers what it's doing.

Plus- they would get in so much shit I imagine, so I think if someone worked out a way to do it, they ought to leave a note to say they deliberately mislead the anaesthetist.

Plus of course- you'd need a reason to be put under anaesthetic. A lot of the exploratory surgeries- endoscopy etc. they do under a sedative rather than a general anaesthetic. They would be unlikely to just give you major surgery without doing a bunch of tests to see what needs fixing.

The line between being generally anaesthetised and being dead is quite narrow. (That's why about 1 person in 10,000 who has an operation never comes out of the anaesthetic.) So it is certainly possible to die that way. I doubt that you could persuade a trained anaesthetist to make a mistake. So that means you would have to do it yourself. The main difficulty would probably be obtaining the necessary anaesthetic, and my guess is that it would be a big difficulty. If you can obtain it, information on dosage is presumably available online. Most anaesthetics are administered by injection, so you would have to be willing to do that to yourself.

Unfortunately no, it's not possible. Their career is on the line and they get in a ton of legal trouble if they mess up so they are very careful not to make any mistake.
