Death is permanent anesthesia

[Oneiron]

There are different stages of general anesthesia. The "lightest" stage resembles deep sleep. The brain activity recorded in EEG is characterized by delta rythm, which is exactly the same EEG pattern as sleep. As anesthesia deepens, brain activity in the cerebral cortex stops completely. The EEG resembles that of a dead person. So whoever experienced general anesthesia knows how death feels like.

I didn't think CTB could get any more appealing, but you just achieved that. I fucking love anesthesia. I've been put under over 20 times and I get so giddy every time, it's literally better than sex lmao. Of course, unless you're CTB with Propofol it won't be quite like that, but still, I like this way of looking at it

There are three rules of death:

1) You cannot consciously experience it.

2) Suicide is not a sin which leads to hell (separation), but rather unbelief. (John 3:16-21)

3) In spite of everything you do to make it foolproof, there is always that one-percent chance you'll survive because "it wasn't your time yet".

I've had anaesthesia 3 times and hated it every time. It was such a mind fuck

I had ECT under anesthesia 17 times for my severe depression. It didn't work but I loved the feeling of drifting off to oblivion. Always hoped I would die while under. Obviously didn't happen.

Death being described and metaphorized in ways like this always brings me comfort and eases my fear of the unknown.
