Discussion Restricting calories before VSED

[fluffycliff]

If I cut my caloric intake to 500-800 calories a day before VSED, as well as limiting hydration, will this hasten the process? The maximum I've made it before was 3 days before getting myself out of that head space. I am assuming for me it would take a week or two, but I would plan for three.

I have the resolve, so if my preferred method is unavailable, this seems like the most logical next option.

Non-methods that should not be attempted

IMO there's nothing logical about attempting with non-methods. Idk what else to tell you.

I was looking for advice on this method, I am aware it is considered a non-method for most.

Maybe ask @Dejected 55 for advice as he's posted about his experiences with it.

I guess it might help you, but what will help you the most is the lack of water intake, that alone will make the fatigue so bad you might sleep even longer and not have much of a desire to get out of bed

Thank you.

@LastDayOnEarth I agree, I'm usually well hydrated. Do you think coffee would prolong the process? My initial reaction is no, but once your body starts to shut down, I don't know if it will just makes things more difficult.

I understand I'm answering something I wasn't asked, but someone still drinking coffee (or drinking anything) is not doing VSED.

Yeah I think coffee and alcohol will speed up the process but also make it more painful, specially alcohol

So... partly because I was looking for a way to die and partly because I literally had no money... I ran out of food and my water service was disconnected. I still had some bottled water for a bit.

Basically I had 2 weeks of not eating anything, but having a couple of bottled waters per day. Then I had some pennies and bought a few packs of ramen and at those over 3 days. Then I was out of food again and by then had ran out of bottled water also.

So, I had about 5 days of no food and no water at all. I then discovered I could get a trickle out of my faucet even with no water service, and I could manage a couple of cups of water a day that way so I had about a week of that level of minimal water.

It was at that point, 5 weeks of virtually no food and 2 weeks of very limited water, I passed out in my chair. I had been getting weaker if I walked much so I tried not to do much physically... but I passed out 3 times from a sitting position, each time waking up in the floor after being unconscious for some period of time all taking place over a couple of hours.

I went to the hospital the next day because I chickened out and got IV fluids for several days before I was semi-normal again.

Your mileage may vary of course.
