Has anyone successful starved to death

[Jkennedy]

When people talk about SI, can't people just stop eating out do most find they give in?

 

[RealLostSoul]

I wanna try it as I am anorexic anyways. I think if you live alone and no one is going to "find you" you may have a chance. It may be very hard though and takes some time. It's the most noble way of dying.

And yes real anorexia people for life are able to pull it through.

 

[Jkennedy]

Was thinking going a few days with out food and water, having something small and water and gradually building up to it

 

[Superdeterminist]

It's rare, but it has been done. A prominent example is Irishman Bobby Sands and some of his supporters. A horrible way to go though. It's incredibly difficult to resist hunger when food is available. I don't know too much about the physiology of hunger, but I read that ghrelin and neuropeptide Y are two proteins which become upregulated in the state of hunger. These cause you to seek out food and think obsessively about it. Starvation is painful and has system-wide consequences on the body.

Got nothing to lose

I read about some ppl who ctb by starvation/dehydration. I'm hoping to start my starvation campaign today as a backup for full suspension.

 

[RealLostSoul]

I would try doing it slowly like you stated. Not all or nothing from one day to the other but cutting down. I believe water is worse to get off. Maybe starvation clears your head for a few hours if it is severe? I mean that's a reason why some people do wildlife challenges.

Have you also stopped drinking? If not do you plan to do so in the future?

 

[Jkennedy]

Yes no food or drink

Thinking about 2 days then a little bit food and water then carry on slowly become Skinner

Do you live alone?

 

[Jkennedy]

Yes

Do you live alone?

Yes, u want a update, how many days

 

[scarletohara]

prob one of the most painful ways to go, would/could take months and months and u would have to suffer the side effects, dizziness, vomiting, blindness, migraines that last for days, all in the hope u have a heart attack and die

 

[Jkennedy]

It only takes less than a week if no fluids are involved

I'm out of ideas, too much si for the rest but really wanna go and I have a great pain threshold
Won't I pass out after a few days of dehydration?

 

[death137]

Yes

Yeah it would be great if you give update.

I live with my family so it's going to be difficult but I will see as time goes.

Some ppl can last for more than a week without fluid. But yeah dry fasting greatly reduce the time that is needed to die.

It would be an incredibly drawn out and horrible way to go. The only people who die peacefully and relatively quickly are those who are in a hospice being pumped full of drugs like morphine. Or they can die at home with access to medical care and drugs (depending on their circumstances) to make their passing more comfortable. Nutrition and/or fluids are then withdrawn so that they don't take months and months to die and they do so in a relatively pain-free manner.

If you watch videos on YouTube about the concentration camp victims during the Holocaust, you'll see that many of the prisoners are just skin and bones and yet astonishly they're still standing. The body has a way to compensate for long term starvation. Of course many of them succumbed to starvation alone but it didn't happen overnight. Starvation also makes one more prone to infections so it's possible that many may have succumbed to subsequent diseases and not necessarily just by starvation itself. When the concentration camps got liberated, many of these "walking skeletons" died because once they got fed their bodies couldn't process the sudden influx of food, termed "refeeding syndrome."

So the hunger is starting to really hit, plus the dehydration as it's one of the hottest days of the year so far.

Thanks for this one, was thinking I might pass out in a few days

tbh u wont be able to give up water, even if its just sips, ur wired to survive. ur organs will fail one by one, this will be agony, the pain will be relentless, u will hallucinate and may go blind. also if u are a healthy weight it will take longer as ur body will use up its fat reserves

this reply is way better than mine

 

[WornOutLife]

I think it's possible but that would be a very slow and unpleasant way to ctb.
I would never do it.

Sorry you're considering doing it.

Hugs and love,

Matt

Thank you, that's very kind of you to say.

 

[FuneralCry]

I think if somebody is trying to starve themselves purposely then the SI will kick in and it would be hard to do. People probably have died of this though, for example hikers getting lost and having and a lack of resources. It will always be prolonged, an awful way to go.

 

[Jkennedy]

So what u all saying scrap this idea I'm 2 hours away from no food or drink for 24 hours, was going to go another 24 hours

 

[scarletohara]

Thank you, that's very kind of you to say.

u really got the point across better, really is an awful way to go, i have struggled with anorexia for ever (natm) and know how much op would struggle

So what u all saying scrap this idea I'm 2 hours away from no food or drink for 24 hours, was going to go another 24 hours

scrap it, come up with a better more humane way to ctb

 

[Jkennedy]

The stomach has rumbled a few times and spasmed a few times. Mouth is dry so is the throat. But so far so good. Nothing too bad.
Don't wanna wait that much longer, don't have the balls for a hanging or jump. SN or N would be nice but living in the UK makes it a challenge.

dont torture urself, u could be doing this for days/weeks, spend some more time on here, do some more research on different methods, ask more questions/advice. the people here are so nice and supportive, they will understand u

 

[All Things Must Pass]

SI is not some magical unstoppable force some make it out to be. Just lock yourself in a room and throw the key out of the window if you really want to do it.

 

[Jkennedy]

Think I've just got to man up and hang myself to be honest, no partial but full. There's a park close by, hop the fence and use the bandstand might jump to break the neck!

maybe try and find somewhere a bit more private so kids dont find u, should u succeed

 

[Jkennedy]

The park warden would find me first park would stay closed and police will investigate, loved ones will be contacted.
Just gonna point out I'm still not eating, gonna continue once u get started why stop. Plan is to waste away then eat makes it easier!

The dream lol

LInk the article next time.

People can die from giving up the fight

People can die simply because they've given up, life has beaten them and they feel defeat is inescapable, according to new research.
