Hi I'm new to being a posting member but I've been a long time follower. I have been appreciating from afar how empathetic and supportive everyone is on here.
I have been thinking about ctb for about 2 decades now. There are many reasons.. But i feel like I've gotten to the point of feeling like there's no quality of life in struggling and suffering as much as I am.
So of course, like everyone else, I want to find the most efficient and accessible way with the least amount of suffering. I've been wondering if it would be a relatively quick ctb (unfortunately not painless) from doing a self induced intravenous embolism (self inducing a heart attack or stroke)? How agonizing and how long do you think it could be? And if no one was there, what are the survival chances? I have basic phlebotomy skills (that most likely anyone could learn) so I feel like I could put silicone or vaseline in a syringe and use a small gauge to get it into the venous blood stream -aka vein- (with possibly a butterfly).
I've never put an IV in myself before so I'm thinking the foot veins would be easiest?
What are your thoughts??
(The only thing that has stopped me from ctb over the last 8 years is because of my dog. I love him so much and he's my world. It'll be impossible to leave him
