I know it's bc the lack of oxygen, but I'd it because they stick you on life support?

What if your power of attorney would pull the plug for you, would doctors have to do what they say, or will they keep you alive anyway bc they are sadistic a-holes?

You can state in your will that you don't want to be kept alive when braindead but doctors often listen to close family members where i'm from so it can very.

I'm sorry you're contemplating such things. There are end-of-life directives on line to use as a template. They aren't always respected but it's far better to have it in writing.

I recently say a YouTube video of a girl who committed suicide. I guess they found her before she actually died. They put her on life support. The next day they declared her brain dead. They kept her alive for a few more days, her family donated her organs. It was hard to watch her family was devastated

If anyone kept anyone alive while being braindead....omg the most selfish sadistic people in the world. Those people that let others be in construction years and years. God that thought makes me sick but I know I'm not going to be found so I'm not worried about that part.

This was made known to us through the tributes posted across social medias earlier today. Please receive our deepest condolence during this period.

Its seems the most news outlets don't mention suicide as cause of death. This one did

I hate that "lost her battle" phrase. I have wanted to die for twenty years and am alive under sufferance. Not because I want to be

Totally. Well I'll be found maybe 12 hours after my suicide, because I have to do it in a hotel. So that better be enough time

Tortured_emph, are you a tortured artist as well?

I think it depends on the law of your own state. But I can tell you directly that, if someone calls emergency services, the rules of implied consent might well be followed and your advanced directives may be ignored. I can tell you first hand that I've known doctors (3 actually) who refused to honor DNR directives, because they were strong pro-life people. I could go into more detail, as it gets a bit worse.

Find out your local and state laws and resussitating and don't trust in a piece of paper on its own. Immediate family members may override you, if you are incapable of making decisions.
