starving

[fwompie]

Starvation and dehydration, you can quickly forget about that. For very old people, yes. With healthy people it can take up to 3-4 weeks. It doesn't work at all on your own. After 2 days you get hallucinations due to lack of water etc.

In anorexia, people eat and drink very little, hardly take any carbohydrates, no fats, no sugar. After eating, they put their finger in their mouth to vomit it all up again.

The body is not supplied with enough nutrients. Deficiency symptoms develop. Those affected are often tired and cold. They have a too slow heartbeat, possibly cardiac arrhythmias, circulatory problems and concentration problems.

Anorexia part not being completely true.
Anorexia is the medical term for loss of appetite, usually leading to losing too much weight. The eating disorder is anorexia nervosa. Of which the symptoms and diets are different per person. They actually usually drink a lot of water actually.

People who purge their food are bulimic, or might have a mix of disorders. It's not part of anorexia nervosa itself I think if I remember correctly.

It takes a long time to get so ill from anorexia nervosa that you die by it, your body will start eating away at organs, organs shutting down until it gets to your heart. In anorexia nervosa cases it can take up to a year and I'd consider that short. But they do eat some things. Will be quicker if you don't consume anything. Anyways, it will take a very long time and it hurts very much. I don't think you'll be able to pull through and when you don't you will have chronic consequences from the starvation period. Your body will fight back during starvation and because you don't have a AN it would be even harder to resist eating and drinking, I'd think.

Literally better off choosing anything else.

So dehytratation is painless?

No. You'll feel thirsty, if it was painless more people would casually die from dehydration because they don't care about drinking something

"Literally better off choosing anything else."

Yes, I didn't want to expand the topic now ;)

But while we're at it:

Experts and doctors distinguish between three main types of eating disorders: Anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. However, these forms can also occur simultaneously or alternately.

Mixed forms (e.g. bulimic anorexia) are even more common than the sole occurrence of a single disorder. For example, anorexia can also lead to binge eating followed by vomiting, which is more typical of bulimia. Similarly, some people with bulimia show symptoms of anorexia at times: After phases of binge eating, many try to control their weight and lose weight through strict starvation diets.

Special forms are also possible, in which those affected show certain criteria of one of the three eating disorders, but not all of them. In this case, anorexia, :! Bulimia or binge eating disorder cannot be clearly diagnosed.

This is like my 4/5 day without eating.. i feel really weak, but im fine, not painful

How many days you need for starving? do you think its possible? there are some side effect if i can't endure in the last days?
It will become painful?

Ive not eating longest 4 days. My body somewhat used to it then after 3 days. Althrough i would make sure not to have much food in house or only food that takes long to prepare like frozen meat or fish. then just live off coffee and tea and lemonade. Im 37 yo heavy chronic phycial constant trouble. The first starve then overdose method is a way which i very very serious consider, as it looks very efficient to first make yourself phicial as weak as possible so any overdose will be as twice as potent minimum and you will start looking to see more vague i think after more then 5 days of not eating.
You then start losing concincious already more and more by the day. Its a way that requires you to be "ready" 100% percent. Not if you want to go death, yes of sure thats the goal and will be your destin. but the road to death due to starvation is long and personal and that is my downside of the method. I would rather just take bottle of some substance and fall immediate concicious and glide away.

I have some experience with this, in a way. I am barely eating now, and what I do eat isn't absorbing (I suspect Lupus). I have lost the most weight I have ever lost, which is saying a lot because I had an eating disorder for years..

It's not fun. At all. I'm weak, constant brain fog. I bounce between horrible hunger pains and complete numbness. I sleep most of the day. I'm constantly "hangry" due to low blood sugar.

I look like a skeleton. Even my temple bones on my skull are sunken in. I have horrible bloating from the inflammation in my gut (likely due to lack of nutrients).

If this is not for you, please don't continue.. because it gets worse. Your hair falls out in clumps. Your eye-sight deteriorates and your hands will shake so much you will barely be able to type.

The end would come in an organ failure (liver, heart, etc), a stroke, or, more rarely, a lethal seizure. It isn't pretty. It's uncommon for even the final end to be quick and painless. Heart attacks hurt like hell. Organ failure is arguably the worst way to go. Seizure would be best, but it's unlikely to happen, not to mention it may not leave you fully unconscious, so suffering is also very possible.

Barely eating is apparently more painful than stopping eating entirely.

Ten irish prisioners starved to death, in 1980 and 1981, in a british prison. They only drink water with salt. They died between 46 to 73 days. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1981_Irish_hunger_strike
