Like closing your eyes, but you can't see, smell, feel, talk, etc. Just you with your thoughts alone in the darkness forever.
That can't be it though...can it?
>>28507864
No consciousness, buddy
You can't think
>>28507872
You think? I've heard crazier stories about what happens when you die anon
>>28507864
if its the way you think it is, then it'l be heaven
you could imagine anything into existence and create a new reality for yourself, your perfect reality
>>28507907
You're an idiot
Unsurprisingly not original
>>28507864
That would be awful, I honestly cant think of a worse fate then that
>>28507864
>Just you with your thoughts alone in the darkness forever.
you're a fucking moron
>>28507907
People who die receive a massive dose of DMT beforehand. Aka people see crazy shit on their deathbeds.
This is how I've always thought of death... Like One by Metallica. All alone with nothing to hold on to but distant memories from the life you wasted which grow fuzzier every year, every decade, every century until you can't remember anything and your only companion is the darkness.
I'd rather go to any religion's hell honestly
>>28508096
I second that.
Furthermore, if you can't "feel", how are you meant to be capable of conscious thought. I don't understand.
>>28508146
You know that's actually just a hypothesis. One I'm inclined to believe, but still...
>>28508162
I meant feel as in you don't feel anything touching your body or it rotting. That'd be worse...but at least there would be some kind of change
>>28507864
You're consciousness dies when you die dude. Death is literslly nothingess when you die everything about you ceases. You won't even know you're dead because you won't be able to think
>>28508146
>>28508174
Have you ever done DMT?
Where were you before you were born? That is the answer.
>>28508162
Even though people like to think that the "nothingness" of death can be conveyed artistically it can't
In order to understand nothing you have to think about it, and there is no "thinking" in nothingness
Assuming there is a soul that contains some sliver of your sentience after death you might be capable of "something" but its unlikely thats true
"You" just disappear
>>28508191
I can't really wrap my mind around not existing...I guess I did it once before...before I was born.
>>28507864
Unconsciousness isn't so bad. It taught me to let go of my fear of death.
Still terrified of dying though.
>>28508199
Had the opportunity to, but I declined.
Didn't appeal to me overly much; I've had my time with psychs.
What relevance does your question have? Exactly.
>>28507864
I wish it was. You just stop existing. There's no way you can grasp this by the way, you won't be able to realize you don't exist because you don't exist. It's like before you were born.
>>28508174
Correct, but I can't really think of any other realistic explanation for it. Given its similarity to melatonin it's fully possible for a conversion process to take place.
>>28508199
I don't do drugs, but it's a well-established fact that DMT is among the most potent psychoactive chemicals.
>>28508261
I expected something spiritual...but it just felt like drugs
>>28508303
Of course, DMT is naturally-occurring.
Spare me your speech, Joe Rogan.
I'm just against people who state speculation as if it's fact.
>>28508311
Synthetic or herbal DMT?
