A member asked:
Could combining anesthesia with poisons give you a painless death ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't count on it: I've known people to try this and live on for decades with brain damage, regretting their attempt. If you are thinking of harming yourself, call 911 if you feel you are losing control, or talk with your physician as soon as you can. Whatever the circumstances, people will not think well of you for taking your life, but will admire any attempt you make to get it back in order. Be truly brave ; live.
