This sentence itself however looks unlikely to be true for me. If something slowly kills you over a prolonged period of time, there should be a moment in time where your brain is already seriously damaged but still can survive. Should you be "saved" at that moment, there should be some permanent damage left. Why should SN be very different in that respect from any other method killing brain by hypoxia?
The thing is Sodium Nitrite can naturally be digested by the enzymes in your stomach. It's just that in large doses you don't have enough of those enzymes, so neutralization is delayed, and those excess nitrites react with the rich-oxygen blood instead, causing methemoglobinemia, leading to hypoxia. So if doctors were to give you a lot of methanyl blue, those Nitrites can be neutralized pretty quickly and your blood is supplied back with oxygen. Sodium Nitrite itself is not poisonous, the dose makes the poison.
In cases of death by hypoxia, compared to the exit bag method, SN has never been reported to cause permanent brain damage
separate from cardiac arrest. So, if you drink SN and go into a cardiac arrest, you have a higher 4% chance of getting brain damage. Most (healthy) people do not get any problem with the heart after ingesting SN, so they will either die or get saved and be fine.
I agree. I tried it, SN + meto + antacid + painkillers, I only took a few sips; barely what I was supposed to take. Still, the pain was like 8/10 for me, but it was more the survival instincts than anything. Heart was beating so fast I could literally see it pumping against my ribcage when I looked in the mirror, ended up throwing up all of it like 15 mins later. Id give it a 7.5/10 on the pain scale; 10 being torture, 1 being a walk in the park.
Some people just have lower pain tolerance, average might say it's a 4-6/10 pain, people with higher pain tolerance would have no problem with it. If you're not used to pain, any method will be painful. Just focus on your will to ctb, the pain will be over soon before you know it.
I've read almost every thread on SN here on SS I think. I'm not convinced it's as peaceful as a 7/10 for most people even if you follow Stan's regime. Having said that, the real question is, relative to other methods, how peaceful is SN? For me, it seems after N, it's still the best way to go. Beggers can't be choosers is the saying.
Please, it should be as clear as day that N is the golden ticket. Like, people, SN is just the good enough rip-off. It's an alternative for poor and unmotivated people like me who can't get N.
