There's No Painless Way to Kill Yourself

There are - just ask some real good doctor how will put an end to the game if it comes to this. We had this conversation with some MD while dating - both of us suffering from severe hypofunction of the empathy glands. So after some discussion in detail (and grossing out the couples dining around us) we come to the conclusion that a massive shot of important hormone with healthy dose of prescription stuff should do the trick due to the way breathing is done in the human body. Somewhat improvement on the current lethal injection protocols.

Breath pure nitrogen. It's totally painless. Your body can't tell you are suffocating that way. You just pass out.

I like the point of this article, which I think are: 1) You can rebuild from any point in your life 2) Take care of yourself 3) Live in the moment

People in the UK are committing a criminal offence if they help someone kill themselves, and this might include providing specific information to people about means and methods. Having said that, ex-politician Michael Portillo made a programme about the death penalty and that included ways to kill people that were pain free. How to Kill a Human Being (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/tvradio/programmes/horizon/broadband/tx/executions/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/tvradio/programmes/horizon/broadband...) This isn't a response to the article because there's not much I can say. i guess I'm glad I live in a country where CBT type therapies are available free at the point of delivery.
