Have you faced death? How did you cope?

7/1/2010 I contracted menegitis B alone at home... By the time I managed to get help it was pretty much too late. My dad was told I have about half hour to live and if im lucky ill make 2 hours! I died soon after, they got me going again but I was in a coma for 5 days... Were going to amputate my feet but found a faint pulse in them. In the end ony a few toes fell off!
I was too close but I survived. Facing death is hard but its woken me up. I find the positive in everything. Best thing tht coud of happened to me! I got a second chamce at life and im not wasting it x
 
Few fairly serious car crashes. Spent a while in an induced coma. A really good friend died in one. That was worse.

No. I was not driving.
 
You could be right though and i can't be assed re-reading it all to double check. If so - what an arse, trying to get high off asthma inhalers. Zero sympathy from me - letting the side down:\

i dont want your sympathy and i was about ten when it happend. I know it was stupid. People learn from stupid mistakes meh!8)
 
not really ever been close to anything the way most people are explaining , guess I've had a few few near misses at 150MPH+ on a bike .

But then scariest thing ws going on a a prescribed drug called Ciclosporin for my acute Psoriasis its normally only given to people that behave had organ transplants i was on it for about 6 months but the best the consukltanat could give me in terms of risk was 1 in 500 people die:\

Som tohter thah being very close to msuicude last year with the mess I managed ti make iof nmyself that about as basd as irs ever been for me

Is that not the greatest rush you've ever had? Its not something I'd plan to do but when it happens its the most unbelievable adreneline rush. Better feeling than any drug.


I dont ride bikes anymore. They fucking scare me now.

Agreed I still ride although the ZZR 1100 got sold last year but as far as coming close to the end I would not have survived at that pace had I not made the right desition at the right micro second :D

And no its not the greatest rush I've ever had ...that would stilll have to be diown to a big dose of MDMA along time ago;)
 
Thats a beautiful fuckin bike man.

Remember a time after 10 pints on a sunday afternoon on the back of one with my mate tearing up the dodgy raods in the west of Ireland. 100 MPH wheelies.

Some feeling...
 
I have had about 3 Near death Overdoses and 1 when i went over propererly and had to be brought round n was told that i had clinically died 4 a really short time
, i m not sure if they were jus sayin it to scare me.

when you OD or i OD which i haven't done now for at least 10 years i must add .

your so intoxicated you have no idea whats happening , so your not really aware that you may die

What i meant was i was expecting a 20 a day B&Q own brand butane habit and you come back to me with this pansy ass asthma inhaler shit.

Next time you are on bluelight i want a story about your 50 a day crack habit:)
 
Where's Shambles with his "drug dealer thought I was dead and was going to saw me up" story?

Actually, where's Shambles in general..?

My only death-type experiences have all been psychedelic induced, where you think you're dying/have destroyed the universe etc. Does that count? Depending on the drug, you approach it differently - LSD, DOC etc you have plenty of time to feel afraid, and only when you let go and reach the moment of acceptance that things feel better.

Fast onset things, like ketamine, you don't really have time to worry about it - you're just dead, and (for a short while) you just accept that as it is.
 
i think the alfred hospital almost gave me an overdose of opiates

most fukd iv been ever, totally 200% gone like never b4

AND the car crash that landed me there in first place, broke over 10 bones n coppd a internal disembowlement , not really , a rib stabbed sum organ n my insides spilled inside me, felt like i needed to shit str8 away, all i was sayin in the ambo was" I NEED TO SHIT NOWWW" all the way to the operating room lol but was jst coz of the injury. tho shittin myself was the last of my worries after bending car doors open n literally walkin away from a 80kph crash, i can still feel the wierd feeling of the impact, didnt see anythn comin, then bang, shits busted everywhere and were at a sudden stop , unable to breathe, all i had on my mind was gettin my mum out of the drivers seat , i had to bend my door open to get out , then hers, wich i literally jst busted the hinges off n jumpd on it til it was open enuff , coz the door latch was stuck .... then the ambos freakd wen i said i took her out the car coz of neck injurys, all i was thinkn of was the car blowing up b4 gettn her out..... spewin i neva took a pic of the smashd car, then cld give better idea of what i was dealin with

, AND pethadine tastes like fukn asss , jam ya green stick gimme a epidural u fatass nurse
 
Yeah, the body has more chance of survival if it goes into ragdol mode when under physical trauma, so no point in fighting it.

I suppose what I'm getting at is the calmness that comes from analysing the situation given the time, and yet still accepting death. So fatalism yes, but with time to think.



I'd be very interested Sadie.



Wow. Truly life changing huh? I presume when you came out of the coma, you knew you would survive? If not, how did you cope?

Morbid git aren't I?

When i came out the coma i had no idea what was going on, i was incredibly weak, couldnt talk, was being drip fed. had wires everywhere coming out of me. had a tube into my bladder and a piss sack and couldnt move....
when i could manage to talk i asked when i could go back to work (bear in mind i was completely bed ridden! lol) the nurse said it will be a while.... my dad came and my brother and my bro was gripping my hand so hard i didnt understand why though, i didnt understand the severity of it all!

after a few days though i started finding out more and more that had gone on.
everyday i got a bit stronger and i was so determined.. being told your in hospital for at least 2 months was tough! i was exercising all i could from my bed when they tried after 10 days to try and stand me up on a zimmer frame i managed 10 seconds and the physio was impressed but i knew i could do better and on my own managed to lift myself up. first time looking out the window at the ground.... that day my life started again! im missing a few toes and my disformed feet and poor balance remind me everyday.
but i wake every morning look out at the sky and it reminds me how lucky not just me, but how lucky we all are to live in a society where we are safe and free.

We are all in control of our destiny and as my good friend said. you make your life what it is, 99% of people would of just accepted their fate and laid in hospital. but you choose your future! <3
 
^^Jeez, some story right there. Internal disembowelment? Eeew! 8o txt spk was a little tough to get through though :)

yeh soz was wizzin hard and speedtyping (no pun intended)
stil aint slept , ended up drivn 2 hrs to sorrento , had 2 beers

Ahh man, internal shit is even worse! =D
 
i have thought and hoped that i was facing death. the pills kicked in sooner than i expected and my mum saw me twitching really oddly. worked out what was going on. i asked her to just lie in bed with me and let me die. i don't know what was happening, i couldn't bear to ask afterwards, but for some reason the journey started in a car and ended in an ambulance. i have little proper memory of the event and apparently did not smile for the next 6 months.

it made me realise that suicide isn't something you do to yourself.
 
^^
I believe you're best off taking the head off first. Then the legs and finally the arms. That way the body doesn't slide around as much in the bath.
