I live in the UAE in my own room and as I have heard that you can obtain insulin from pharmacies without a doctor prescription - I am still not very sure about that-.
I am planning to buy two vials of long acting insulin and two vials of short acting insulin and I will take them with 5 ml syringes after I starve myself for 24 hours and then I will eat fried chicken without any carbs and I will start drinking alcohol.
Things that I want to make sure about:
- Are four vials of insulin sufficient to end my life?
- How long does it take to pass away after injecting them?
- Is it very likely to faint before taking all the insulin that I planned to take?

The reason why I like insulin more because it's very hard to rescue me before passing away and there will be no hesitation while I am taking insulin but if I jump from s building it will be very difficult or if drown myself in the sea it's very likely that someone will notice or my instinct may push me to fight back plus I really hate drowning

It's a method I've strongly considered and haven't entirely ruled out. But it is actually a pretty iffy method. It is easy for someone to be saved, if found. All that's needed is a shot of glucagon to quickly raise your glucose level. I've heard about people who OD'd on insulin and then woke up days later from a coma. There can be serious organ damage. Also it may not be a peaceful death, as hypoglycemia can cause seizures. The amount of time it takes to work is unclear- for one, because a lot of other hormones interact with insulin and could take longer or shorter for one person than the next.

I'd be really curious too, if anyone has more info on this, tho
