That's a totally normal reaction and serves only to beat yourself up. Try not to spend too much time questioning if you could have done anything to change the outcome. Symptoms of gasoline poisoning may include: difficulty breathing. I've lost two friends to suicide and it sucks. Swallowing gasoline can cause a wide range of problems for your vital organs. I haven't been suicidal in over a decade now, but if I ever got a horrible terminal diagnosis or something, inert gas would definitely be my way out, being basically the same but without the unpleasant effect. More modern cars with better emissions controls may well be less unpleasant, but that's nothing more than a hunch. The second time I actually had a change of heart, but on the walk from the car to the garage door I passed out (likely from the sudden extra movement of de-oxygenated blood). You get dizzy and your limbs get heavy, then you just pass out. Your throat and sinuses start to feel a bit raw. If you keep your eyes open they sting and water. A CO-bound hemoglobin is called Carboxyhemoglibin and in the most serious cases a hyperbaric chamber is used to speed up the separation of CO and. The experience is unpleasant, but far from the most unpleasant thing I've ever experienced. Additionally, carbon monoxide bonds to hemoglobin more readily than oxygen does and takes longer to release, meaning the effects of CO poisoning can last much longer than the exposure duration to CO. I tried to kill myself twice using carbon monoxide (car exhaust).īoth times I was discovered after I passed out and transported to hospital where I was put on oxygen and later regained consciousness. I can actually give a first-hand answer on this. Like, why not? You aren't above literally killing them, and lethal injection is an awful way to go, so why not bust out the rack again? And if you're in favor of that, you may as well be in favor of torture. This is literally the only argument for it. We do it because we want the emotional satisfaction of "eye for an eye" style justice. There just isn't a good argument for the death penalty. Innocent people have been executed, investigations have been hindered by killing necessary witnesses, etc. It's not an effective deterrent, it's needlessly expensive, it gives the state (even more) power to decide who lives and dies, it eliminates the possibility for reform, it introduces the possibility of executing innocent people, and it eliminates the possibility of further investigation after the deed is done. Here's one of my favorites: If you're in favor of the death penalty, you should also be in favor of relentless, medieval style torture of anyone on death row. It's because people want the death penalty used as retributive justice.
