I'm considering my options. I have long been planning to ctb by hanging. But recently thought of insulin overdose. I'm hesitant. I'm afraid if I miscalculate I'll live all fucked up. But arguably I can say the same for hanging.

Any advice? Opinions. Stories on the use of insulin. Good or bad.

The PPH doesn't speak good about it. Supposed to be pleasant upon first look only. Dr. Nitschke in the PPH explains why it doesn't at all work that well and all associated problems when it comes to insulin overdose. You need quite a large amount too, which is mostly not getting prescribed to anybody non-diabetic. It was given one of the lowest, if not the lowest rating in the book of all options available.

On this count, including an MD of experience's insight, I would say final verdict is not recommended.

As a Type One Diabetic who has tried twice with over 1000 units each time, I do not recommend. I did not even lose consciousness. All that happened was that I spent some days in the hospital while they pumped glucose into my bloodstream periodically.

I don't recommend insulin because it has a very low reliability rate...
