Does it hurt when you die?

"I'm not afraid of death; but dying scares the hell out of me."
-Jack Cleary

I would like to think NOT while I am still alive. But I will know for sure once I die.

Yeah, we would like to know that.

I don't think dying can hurt.

Your brain shuts off, cutting off all nerves making you feel nothing.

So, technically, it cannot hurt.

But usually your brain is the last thing to shut down..

no 1 is quite sure on wat it feels like to die cause when u die u either go to heaven or hell (if they exist) and u have no way of telling any one wat it was like

😆

bollocks.

there is no such thing as death before loss of conciousness. We do not need to die to know that pain is not felt while a human being is unconcious. We induce unconciousness hundreds of times daily for the sole purpose of eliminating pain. Ever had surgery? yeah.......

depends how you die 😐

no

it

doesn't

I doubt it...pain is mostly something felt by the living....so once your dead you prob don't care any more

No, I don't think death itself is painful. Now, the means by which one gets there, that is another story.

What an asinine post.

I'm not sure if I'm right but I take medication for schzphrenia, depression, disorders like that. I take seroquel about 600 mgs a day of that one, 40 mgs of prozac. There has been a few occasions on which I took double the dosage of the seroquel by accident because I forgot that I already taken them, A feeling of extreme fatigue more than normal then a lot more thats when I realized I took too many, I tried to stand up but my balance was terrible I couldn't think straight in fact I could barely manage a normal thought period, my lungs hurt my breathing became hrder to do it felt almost like my lungs wanted to shut down and I began to twitch a lot little jolts and the rest of my body was just getting weaker and weaker for some reason I didn't want to call an ambulance until I was absolutely sure I was real trouble but even that might have too late. All I could do was try to stay awake as long as possible until this feeling passed I swear to god I think I would have died if I lost concence. I don't know it was an awful feeling I'm a lot more careful now because of this. Is there anyone who can realte to this story? Tell me about it.

death, no, probably not. everything right BEFORE death, yea, thats bound to hurt unless its so sudden that the sensation doesnt even reach your brain.

I take thyroid meds and it can make me really sick if I miss any or take more then I should. I use one of these...

Hehe, wtf, hehe.

lol

one would need to define "death", "self" and maybe "you" before this question is answerable.

the simplest answer, as lots of people have pointed out, is that it would depend how.

Yeah, it's really just what kills you that determines the level of pain. The simple act of dying without incident would probably be painless though.

Death: Not living anymore
Self: You
You: Self

Go!
