Guy survives 15g Nembutal after 3 day coma and 3 weeks in hospital.

[DisaffectedOne]

Found this from last year on reddit:

"Hi – have to vent.

So, despite disbelief which I cant blame you for, I survived 15g of Nembutal (and, no, I wont give you the supplier).

No idea how it happened- spent 3 weeks in hospital after a 3 day coma. I lay undiscovered for 2 days.

Doctors could only say I was lucky- I dont feel it. I was calm and happy to go. So at peace."

This is my big fear...

wtf

 

[Final Escape]

Oh that would piss me off so bad lol! If I happened to be the person who for some reason survived this. Guess it wasn't his time eh? I wonder if it was diluted or he was just indestructible lol!

The Reddit post is from 1 year ago though. Is it you, OP?

Not me, I just did a search for Nembutal.

 

[iHeartRockArt]

This would end up being me, with my luck, compromised immune system and gastrointestinal issues. I probably wouldn't absorb it correctly. That's Scary.

 

[ReadyasEver]

Wow....the person must have a liver and a metabolism off the charts.

 

[Xerxes]

I have a super fast metabolism, which is why I'm always skeptical about ODs and taking dangerous stuff. I thought about the drinking antifreeze method because usually it takes 3 days to kill, 2 days to metabolize in the blood stream, with me I think I'll be dead in a day. I already consume 5000+ calories a day just to gain 1 lb.

 

[Retched]

Dang it, that's rough.

 

[Retched]

Wait...I just read the whole thread there...so he is bored? He wasn't put in psych hospital after? I'd lose my job, be put in hospital for psych ward and then after 7 days be released with a gigantic bill and a "see ya, try not to kill yourself again" advice. But he's going to the gym. Hummmm....

 

[DisaffectedOne]

So I've been reading the guy's post history a little more, and he describes himself as 'a bit overweight' (may have been a factor). Also, he was discovered because his workplace called for a welfare checkup when he didn't show..

 

[Jenna]

That's scary.

 

[DisaffectedOne]

Another post he made about the attempt:

"I attempted suicide in December using N. but after a 48hr coma, where I lay undiscovered, a work welfare check led to my being hospitalised. It was Hell in ICU. Incredibly vivid hallucinations.

But incredibly I survived with no damage and a recovery which startled the doctors. Some called it miraculous."

 

[TiredHorse]

I haven't read the Reddit, but two things come to mind:

1) Was it N from a reliable source, or did he get scammed with fake/dilute/low-potency N? I have read a couple accounts here of forum members taking a test of their N and reporting that the small test-dose did virtually nothing, suggesting the possibility that there's low-potency/expired/dilute N out there. I don't mean to be an alarmist, but even aside from any discussion of where to source it, should the quality of N be a factor in our method decisions?

2) Is he telling tales? Is this a pro-life troll discrediting N? For verifiability, are hallucinations typical of barbituate use (I don't recall them being so) or could this be a "side effect" invented to lend verisimilitude?

Okay, three things come to mind:

3) The only sure-fire way to die is old age.

 

[mattwitt]

If I drank 2 bottles of N from A and survived that would suck big time because then I would have to get a job for about a month so I could order 3 bottles of N

 

[Jupiter]

Can the report be verified through other sources?
I only know of that medical report of this Indian doctor in the UK. But if I remember correctly the person was found soon after taking the N.

Ich did a quick Google search and it does seem like one of the withdrawal symptoms from barbiturates is hallucinations.
I have a feeling a prolifer would make up some kind of damage as well maybe?

Unsettling either way.

Anyone know how rare a survival like this is? I'm really concerned

 

[Made4TV]

I'm not concerned about N from A. I'm guessing it was the Chinese powder. Why does he not want to give info about the supplier? Also if you're really worried about your N you could test it.

I really doubt what he is saying is true. Some people lie to get attention or whatever else or maybe he got the N from someone and it wasn't actually N etc. No one survives 15gs on N unless they are found right away, yet alone two days later!

It's virtually impossible, he's either making it up or was scammed with diluted N. Provided your N is from A and you don't throw it up or get discovered straight away you're practically guaranteed to die

I think he just made it up.

I'm not able to get N, but it's still scary.
How to tell it was 3 days in coma? Was there a suicide note with a date on it. Went into a coma after discovery, or assuming went into a coma shortly after consuming?

 

[Jupiter]

I have to agree. There are so many liars online who just seek attention. He may not be a pro lifer though.

Ok that was really, really funny.

Reddit is censored. And you will get banned for wrongthink.

 

[Moms_Spaghetti]

Lots of variables going on here. Potency and possible cross tolerance to something else he was taking are the biggest. Or he's just a straight up bullshitter we won't ever know.
