Discussion Why is SN preferred?

[SanguineShark]

This is not me asking people about advice for my method, I'm purely asking out of curiosity as I noticed SN to be preferred by a lot of people here and I was curious why

 

[FuneralCry]

Because it's a reliable poison method. Many of the other methods are more brutal, risky or more difficult to overcome the survival instinct with.

The thing is, I heard that the side effects after ingesting SN are pretty harsh, especially the rapid heart rate
I was wondering how that compares to, for example, hanging? Like is hanging harder? And if so, is it because of the SI or the pain on the neck?

It's reliable, relatively peaceful, not too difficult to get (depends on where you live ofc) and if you fail there's not thaaat much damage compared to other methods.

Accessibility was the major factor and it's easy to prepare and easy to store and cheap, relatively quick and peaceful if it's pure enough.

that makes sense, a lot of methods that involve some physical form of asphyxiation can lead to brain damage if rescued

that's fair, I guess the nausea is the biggest hurdle
I do take quetiapine so it is one of the methods I was considering

I think hanging is harder. I didn't try it but I imagine drinking a shot is way more easy then hanging yourself

 

[SanguineShark]

Hanging is popular too

I'm not really surprised, it's quite easy to do and you can get knocked out fast, I guess the only problem, at least for me, is the lack of place to do it at
I was thinking a lot about doing it, but it's getting cold outside so it's harder for me to go to some secluded area without getting super cold on the way there, especially at night

that's true, it may be easy in my head, but probably once I have to actually try to do it I'd get too scared

I've never attempted hanging but I've read of many failed attempts because of the SI kicking in. I just think a method like SN would be easier to go through with in the first place, what would particularly scare me with hanging is it going wrong and leading to potentially way worse suffering.

I get that, it's sad how hard it is to die

Most of them can be mitigated by pre medication and fasting. The fast heart rate doesn't bother me as much as the nausea, headaches and abdominal pain but those can be mitigated with beta blockers if you can get them

aniemetics are so hard to come by though, I'm afraid I'd just vomit it all up and it would be pointless

 

[AliceTheGoon]

Mainly because it's doable. Everyone I've chatted privately with here who has CTB'd used SN. They were mostly like me, non-impulsive folks long suffering from degenerative illness. They may not have had it in them to shoot themselves or jump or hang but they managed to gulp down a salty concoction. And that's really what makes a good method...can you do it.

i didn't understand the thing you said about purity. is there a huge difference if the purity is %95-98 instead of %99?

Wish I'd joined here years ago and bought SN when easily available.

That makes sense, I'm sorry you have to go through that. I personally suffer from incurable mental health disorders that make my life hell. I think I'd be able to drink a liquid, though I really wouldn't want to vomit or be found in time.

Not a huge difference but SN can convert to Sodium nitrate bc of Poor storage Or open it and expose it to the air this can take sn down. So u must store ur sn properly and never open it until the day u will use it, make sure that ur sn is pure enough before by testing it.

 

[Old Friend]

Hanging is popular too

Not as peaceful but at least you can buy a rope in the UK without needing some sort of business license or have the fuzz round to "check up" on you. We'll see how long that lasts.

You've gotta love the "youkaay".

I ordered some SN today but I'm not from UK, I hope it will get to my house without any issue :x

 

[Old Friend]

Let's hope. Good luck.

Everyone else has given the answer already, I just wanna add that I've attempted CTB by hanging several times and I really thought that it'd be way easier than SN especially since I have emetophobia. I was dead wrong and I had to change my method, while SN is harder to obtain than anything that could be used for hanging, it's a method that's far more accessible in terms of success if you're someone who's disabled.

You gotta store it properly and not open it until the day of your CTB but you also gotta test it? How is that supposed to work? Do you just open it, get a bit of SN out to test and then immediately reseal it or? Testing it right before an attempt doesn't work for me because if it turned out to not be pure at that point, I'd have no way (or time) to get SN from another source

U can buy 2 bottles of SN the first one for testing and the second for the ctb, personally I'll do that. It's not recommended to open it For any reason until the ctb day.

if i opened mine to test it and then sealed it back up do you think its lost its potency

Another day, another question about sn that's already been answered, WHEN WILL IT STOP...just kidding @SanguineShark. Reasons are quite vast for why SN. I like to think of sn as a method people followed because they researched and came to their own conclusions that it could work when done correctly, not because it was the "in thing" and everyone was doing it. It's reliable, easy to get depending on where you are, easy to hide and keep. People worry about opening it but I don't see what's the big fuss because what reason would there be for people who actually buy sn for research to open it if they need to be as pure as possible, it's not that sensitive to air but that doesn't mean to be careless with it.

Everyone I've chatted privately with here who has CTB'd used SN. They were mostly like me, non-impulsive folks long suffering from degenerative illness.

Hmm, was it confirmed that they did ctb, sorry for asking if these members were close to. Everyone has different reasons for whatever they chose to use in the end.

your CTB but you also gotta test it? How is that supposed to work? Do you just open it, get a bit of SN out to test and then immediately reseal it or? Testing it right before an attempt doesn't work for me because if it turned out to not be pure at that point,

And this is how confusion causes problems on this forum especially when it comes to sn, ive never seen such a method divide opinion and general consensus over the past few years. It wouldn't make logical sense to be afraid of opening sn to test it when it's already been tested to meet certain standards to be graded as pure as it is for analytical purposes, not to ctb with.

 

[tinyghost]

its reliable and non violent, si is lower than with other methods like hanging or jumping, its unlikely to cause long term damage if you fail, and its believed to be relatively peaceful.

Personally i think it is bc when u open the bottle there's some air will enter it and can oxidize nitrite to nitrate, it's better to never open it until the ctb day, if u opened yours u have to test it in the same day of ctb before with strips or aquarium test to know the potency and purity level or buy another one if possible.

 

[sad_rock]

it's peaceful and reliable when you follow a regimen that isn't overly complicated. it can still be effective on its own. sn is the closest thing to ctb like the "ideal overdose"- you pass out and never wake up. basically closest form to dignified ctb as it isnt violent/painful when done correctly.
