Is it possible to CBT by injecting air on a vein or artery? Preferably an accessible one, like the superficial ones on the arm. If so, how much would air would I need (small amounts are usually absorbed by the body from what I've read)? I know it causes embolism, that can lead to heart attack, but is it too painful? Is it reliable? How long would it take for it to work?

It doesn't sound like something that could be easily achieved. I think you might be better off with a different method.

I've researched about it in the past and although theoretically it should work, in practice it does not because the air is absorbed into the bloodstream.

You would have to inject a lot of air and even then it could still be absorbed in the bloodstream. If successful it can cause cardiac arrest I believe. I'd recommend doing some research on it if you want to attempt this.

Exceptionally difficult unless you're a medical professional, and excruciatingly painful even if you are.

I think there are better, easier, and less painful ways.

The more i research the more it seems that SN will be the one.
