How quickly do you feel death when you shoot yourself in the head?

Since you don't cease to exist, you'll feel for a long time.

Wait what??? You keep existing?? That's fucking awful. What can I do to alleviate this suffering??

>>16733846
Usually shooting yourself helps

Yea you know how when your foot falls asleep? It's like that but for your whole consciousness. The body is a filter. Not an antenna.

For captain Sobel of "band of brothers" fame, 17 years.
He shoot himself in the head turned himself into a retarded blind man and spent 17 years in a hospital until he died of whatever.

Did he miraculously regain his will to live after his survival or was just too far gone to try again? If the latter, that sort of scenario is why I think euthanasia is sometimes 100% the ethically sound choice.

They force-fed him through a tube until one day they got tired of doing it.

>>16733944
Ah, so yeah, one of those situations where euthanasia is 100% the ethically sound choice and the alternative is an ethical nightmare, but for some reason that isn't immediately obvious to many people.

This is why people ought to shoot themselves in the heart. If you aim correctly it mechanically makes blood circulation impossible, then you die from lack of blood circulation. You'd blackout within seconds as there would be no blood reaching the brain.
If however you miss the heart or only cause minor damage, then surgeons could patch you up and you would recover with your head intact, you could the try again.
If you hit a lung or something like that maybe you'd still die but slowly, you would choke and bleed to death. You could probably just shorten than by shooting again right then, its just hard if you mess your head first.
You should also consider drowning in an indoor pool or some place where you have control and wont be found. Normally its a horrible method because everyone has experienced drowning, holding your breath, etc. Theres a method to either stop or shorten the duration of that panic, pic related explains it.
What you do is hyperventilate, this increases air flow in the lungs and clears out your blood of most CO2, this reduces the ph in the blood and causes Alkalosis, it feels bad. Anyway, when you are in alkalosis you can hold your breath for way longet than usual, this is because the body continues to use the oxygen reserved in the blood (stored as hemoglobin) and to produce CO2, but since you purged the CO2 from the blood it takes longer for it to reach the levels at which panic sets in.
As the CO2 levels rise, the Oxygen levels drop as you consume the blood reserves, and when it drops below a critical level you blackout and feel nothing.
This happens to divers often, they hold their breath and hyperventilate first to be able to hold out for longer. Then sometimes they are diving and just blackout.

If you dont believe me just try out breat holding exercises as a test. Use some timer to keep records. How long can you hold your breath? 30 seconds, 45 seconds?
Then hyperventilate for 1 minute, 2 minutes, until you start feeling dizzy. Then hold your breath and record, its going to be much easier to hold out for more time.
And then comes the surprise, as you hold your breath you suddenly blackout, things go black, then you start breathing again while unconscious, reoxigenate the blood and wake up.

Euthanasia doesn't get a check from the Army's retiree health insurance.

Just cut the artery in your thigh.

Don't kill yourself anon. God can help you.
