SN permanent damage

[Beachedwhale]

Everyone says that SN doesn't cause any permanent damage if you survive it but where is the evidence for this? It doesnt make sense to me that depriving your brain and other organs of oxygen for hours would leave them unscathed.

From what I've seen, most people who "survived" SN usually end up getting help from the hospital and some didn't follow the correct procedure either wrong dosage or wasn't prepared for.

Thanks for your response but it doesn't answer the question...

I think people who is unconscious after taking it as you mentioned lack of oxygen for hours, I think they will end up ctb successful if that's the case. Lethal dose of SN is 9g and you're taking 3x the amount.

From what I've gathered there are two possible outcomes of SN poisoning. The first is the poisoning is caught in time and treated properly with methylene blue which reverses the methemoglobinemia before any permanent damage is done. The second is the SN is left to do its job long enough to be irreversible. So it is either successful or it isn't with no in between.

I don't understand the full science behind it, but apparently up until the point of fatality the effect on the blood isn't enough to permanently damage any of the body's systems or components. Once the fatal level is reached then the damage is immediate and seemingly irreversible.

because anyone who is saved is not deprived of oxygen for hours, if thy are deprived of oxygen for hours they are dead.

The ones who are saved are given treatment in time, that depends on how quickly they get treatment, how much they took, etc.

Some observed SN deaths on here take only 25 to 30 minutes.

I just wished SN would be available forever in my country. I don't need to ctb now but this sounds so great to me. Permanent damage is my biggest fear when thinking about suicide

There's no studies or anything to prove it. But you can make an educated guess.

Obviously, anyone who suffers permanent damage probably isn't able to report back and say so. So maybe it happens and we don't hear about it.

But based on what we do hear... what we have to go by is lack of news coverage blaming bad outcomes on SN (you know they'd be latching onto that), reports of people who died, and stories from people who supposedly took it and recovered.

Studying this, it seems like a logical assumption that the risk of serious damage is minimal.

If someone survives poisoning, of course organs in the body can be damaged.

 

[SweetDreams500]

There are no cases of long-term damage done by SN in the medical literature. This doesn't mean that it is impossible to be left with long term impairments after a failed suicide attempt using SN, just that there has never been a reported case of it happening.
