How strong is SI when trying to drink SN?

[Kvothe_alThor]

My SN will arrive in a few days and I was thinking about SI, has anyone here prepared the death potion but couldn't drink it cause of SI? I believe a simple act like drinking something should be really easy to do, thoughts?

I have no idea because I haven't tried it, but like you I assume it would be fairly straightforward, especially if the stakes are high (for example, the regimen has been done specifically for this moment, tagamet and meto taken 30min prior, perhaps specific conditions have been made so that you won't be found, etc). I think for me at least the overcoming of the SI would be deciding to go on with the process/really commit to gathering all the items, and then starting and continuing the regimen.

I did everything and had the drink in hand two days ago. Couldn't do it. Too much uncertainty? Wanting to make things as best I could before I go? Scared of what lies ahead? Not sure but I didn't do it. I had gotten rid of everything after I made the two drinks. So I had to order more and wait. Been doing everything I can to soften the blow before I go without being obvious.

The 48 hour regimen is when SI is likely to kick in, I reckon. It seems to me to be like standing hooded on the gallows, rope around neck, waiting, waiting for the trap to drop.

I need to be impulsive.

The regimen seems to offer a better chance of success than taking a stat dose though.

I'm gonna start the meto and again and not push it at the 48hr mark. If you take it for 60 or 72 hours doesn't matter. That way you're always just an hour away.

Same with N it's the taste of it. One sip of SN and it's yuk.

I don't know how it tastes but if the taste is bad then even drinking becomes difficult; your through just tightens and you start to gag. Such reflex might be really hard to overcome, especially if you want to drink everything in one go. At least drink it cold if it's possible.

I have a really bad gag reflux! SN no way for me, even with emetics I'd throw the lot up x

Sorry my ignorance, I searched but didn't found nothing, what is "SI"?

Jesus, true. I totally forgot it, thanks : - )

Depends on the person and moment entirely, I suppose. Last night I took xanax to test the effect, and resisted even that. Going to sleep too early/too deeply felt like a little death. If my SI was a worm it would be Shai-Hulud.

I completely agree .... That wait of 48 hrs will be worst. I guess I will try and have a 24 hrs regime if possible .... Have antihistamines every 8 hrs .. Also probably have a large dose abt 30 45 mins prior to sn ,along with some Valium so when I take SN its more or less lights out for me ... Hope this method works for me. Any comment
