Does a prisoner have the chance to stop eating and drinking to die or will they give fluids?

In my country (Canada), they'll take you to the forensic mental health hospital and put a feeding tube in.

Unfortunately that is highly unlikely, they will even go through the process of force feeding you with a machine if they have to. The only chance one can get at death inside prison is from another prisoner with a weapon, etc or through thorough planning and hanging or poison. I wouldn't wish that sort of death on anyone, it is truly horrible.

It's sick. I wonder how you could get away with it. Maybe in solitary confinement.

And load you with meds. Wow..

I truly do hope your situation gets better and that you will not have to go through undeserved suffering.

I reckon in most countries treatment would be forced on you. I also suspect the desire for food and water would become unbearable and you would give in to it. Good ole SI.

Yeah the prison could get sued if they don't force-feed you I would think.

This is actually something I know a little about, at least how it's handled in my country, Norway, and it's probably handled the same way throughout Northern Europe at least.

In Norway you will not be forcibly fed if you stop eating while at an institution. Doing that would constitute breach of your human rights. But the state will monitor your health and they will continue to offer you food at mealtimes. The staff will continue to watch you and they have instructions to look for certain signs, like when your body starts to smell like acetone. When that happens they have to call for a doctor. The doctor will then asses your situation and might take action. A loop hole with the law is that when you lose your consciousness, then the doctor are legally allowed to treat you the way he sees fit since you are no longer able to give him instructions. He probably has to assume you want to live.

Edit:
To clearify my point: The first days of a hunger strike is not dangerous and you are not in mortal danger. Then the prison/hospital has no statutory authority to do anything. But when your body starts to die they can invoke necessity. But then there are strict guidelines on what they can do.

Where is it going? :)

If you were in prison, you wouldn't be here on forum.

If you're planning to go to prison, you can come up with some crazy reason for hunger strike ("Free Julian Assange!") and get some publicity. They would probably not force feed you in such case.

I have also considered suicide by this method, but I read somewhere on this website that this is actually a very painfull way to die. And it takes a long time to complete. So it's not recommended.

What kind of draconian society still force feed people who want to die?

Trapped in prison? Thats the worst case scenario. This is where the "nightnight" method comes in handy. I heard of a woman who killed herself in prison by tying knots on a shirt or something and strangled herself with the knots blocking off carotid arteries.
