Suicide by beta blockers and alcohol

[FentIsMyWay]

Is it possible? I have about 30 tablets of propanol and im already drunk as fuck. Will drink more if needed... Before you ask I'm suicidal sober as well but this is not my preferred way to CTB. So this way is kinda on impulse so uhh you people are against impulse so take from that what you want.

Hello, just one question. How many miligrams each tablet?

I don't know if that would work.. you'll probably need to take a lot of them

Well, as a general rule meds have a super low death rate. Something like 2%. You're almost certainly just going to end up in The Er, but with the added bonus of a huge hospital bill, yeah America!

Well damn, you got that going for ya. I wouldn't risk it honestly. Our bodies are insanely durable. It's really hard to OD on anything nowadays.

Yeah, probably best friend. I was thinking OD too but someone who tried it and ended up in The ER with 3 missing teeth talked me out of it. And they took a SHIT ton of medicine.

No, no, no. 260 mg is a normal dose which won't cause you OD. People take even more for regular treatment, like 400 or 600 mg/day, so there is no way you can die from this.

I have taken 6 grams of propranolol (in addition to 2255 mg promethazine and 180 mg clonazepam) and woke up three days later. Unconsciousness will happen quickly if you are lucky but what happens when you're unconscious and/or wake up is unpleasant to say the least. My proprioception was non-existent and it felt like a mixture of tinnitus drop attacks and vertigo at the same time. I was completely unable to hold myself up or maintain any sense of balance.

I'm already very sick so any lasting damage has blended in with whatever I already have going on. I am lucky that I didn't become a vegetable but I also have a known medical issue that interferes with the way my liver metabolizes medications, food, etc. so that is what undoubtedly "saved" me.

I do not recommend this method at all.

Do a site search of propanolol. A minimum of 8g is recommended, but people have survived higher amounts.

Read the accounts on SS of those who have survived it, one member claimed to have tried three times with alcohol (I say claimed because it's a forum of random people, not a peer-reviewed medical study).

The method can work, and potentiating it with calcium channel blockers can increase the likelihood for success. There have been successful ODs with propanolol, you can do a Google search, but it's iffy. It seems to me more likely to succeed than other ODs, but you don't have nearly enough, regardless of alcohol.
