...starvation?

[misunderst0od]

How long do you think one can starve themselves to death? Any thoughts?

 

[Threads]

Over 3 weeks.

I read that it is also a peaceful way to go....eventually slip into a coma and die.

food doesn't interest me anymore anyway

A long time if just food, a healthy person can take 2 months.vsed without water is much quicker but even then can take 2 weeks.

Maybe the death will be okay, but actually starving yourself sounds like a bad time. It will be hell forcing yourself to the point in which you starve to death.

I'm not sure but it'll take a lot of time for your body to succumb to death mostly if you are a healthy person. You'll suffer from anorexia I believe.

Walk around the desert

Partial suspension hanging is my method of choice, but starvation's also a method that I'm interested in. I've read a lot of conflicting information about it, though.

I believe for a healthy individual it often takes at least two months before death (I'm hardly an expert on the subject, though). In my case, I'm already a bit underweight, so I don't think it would take me quite as long as that.

Food and I have fallen out.just can't be bothered to even eat now and feeling weak.

Imo there are faster and less painful methods. Although I totally believe in the right of the individual to choose a method that has meaning or works for them. My only advice to anyone is to research it and make an informed decision.

 

[Vvoiid]

No. Don't even bother trying it.

 

[Dip]

I tried starving and dehydrating myself for 4 days before chickening out; it was awful and horribly drawn out and I still needed to keep going to the toilet.

Now imagine going through the slow agonizing process for weeks on end. Or better yet look into a faster method.

Depends on how fat you are. The process is really painful and you will be so hungry that in the end you will eat ANYTHING to survive. So unless you are alone in the desert, forget it. There are better ways.
