Newsweek didn?t specify the compound, it just said ?anti-anxiety? medication. Which I?m glad they did employ it. I?m not by any stretch of the imagination claustrophobic, but underwater cave diving seems to be at the top of the list for a definite freakout.It's come out today that the boys were heavily sedated, even "barely conscious" during the rescue. No doubt a smart move...
Hey SHM
I would have thought a dissociative could risk rendering a tripping lad non-responsive, and I think there would be points where they would need to do a bit more than just lie there and float. I've been given midazolam for surgical procedures requiring a sort of responsive sedation, total amnesia but still able to obey commands. Had I been in charge of this teams drugs, that would have been my choice. And huffs of nitrous cos why not?
Who would chloroform them? If they?re chloroformed, how could they come out? It?s called anxiolytic, something to make them not excited, not stressed
What is the context of that remark? To me, it sounds like he's saying they are not using chloroform, but instead using an anxiolytic. I really don't know.
I agree that all this attention does seem arbitrary but I'm also surprised that 'the world' has rallied around a non-Western disaster. That is untypical imo.
I think it's a little harsh to compare an extremely complex cave rescue involving heroic deeds on a daily basis which was successfully completed with no injury or loss of life for those rescued - an incredible triumph of planning and cooperation from which the world is still reeling in amazement; with a celebrity wedding![]()
That's actually a decent point. This article points out that three of the boys aren't even Thai - they're stateless. Hopefully some of the proceeds will find their way to these boys.

Speaking of cunts, here is Elon Musk, massive benefactor to the Republican Party, calling the British diver who rescued the boys a “pedo” for pointing out Musk’s submarine thing was a stunt.

Eh up Mr. Monday, long time no see.
Couldn't read yer link as I don't have a Twatter account, and have no intention of creating one, but that sounds like a real cunt's trick...
First tweet.
“I never saw this British ex-pat guy who lives in Thailand (sus) at any point.
Second tweet
“Water level was actually very low....if not I challenge this guy to show the final rescue video.”
Third tweet.
“You know what? Don’t bother...we’ll make our own...sorry pedo guy, you really did ask for it”
