It’s really scary how being under anaesthesia is the closest we come to experiencing death

[Koba St]

I had an operation two weeks ago on the side of my face and the operation lasted about 8hrs. It was my first time ever having an operation and the experience still freaks me out. Basically based on the fact that it was the closest I ever came to experiencing death.

When we go to sleep for 8hrs every night. Even though we are asleep, we still dream, occasionally, wake up, retain our consciousness, memory. It’s nothing like death.

Being under anaesthesia is nothing like sleep. Before the operation begun the anaesthetic told me to keep clasping my hand and that was it. I woke up again in 8hrs after the operation. But those 8hrs was completely dark. No memory, no dreams, no occasionally waking up. Just complete blackout. It’s basically what will happen when we die.

The only difference between anaesthesia and death is that unlike anaesthesia, death is permanent for eternity. I mean your body is still functioning when under anaesthesia, but it makes no difference to you because as you don’t experience anything.

Nah. You can have the best sleep in the world and you’ll still have dreams, etc that still makes you feel alive.

Its better than going in to surgery wide awake. Ive had root canals where i felt i was in hell with just a lil nitrous oxide. I couldnt imagin doctors going in on my interal organs without properly getting fukked up

Twice: Nephrectomy in the mid-90's (7 hours) and heart-attack/arterial stent implantation in 2012 (3 hours).

I don't remember shyt and am not bothered by either episode. I (and my mother) came out alive, so, I'm grateful medical tech exists to heal.​

Don't worry you'll be woken up from your death slumber with eye boogers in front of God as he decides to let you moonwalk to heaven or throw you and your soul into the eternal flames. Let's use our time wisely brother

@Koba St , I didn't dream for years or at least i didn't retain any semblance of visual or audible dreams the moment I regained consciousness. In honesty, if that's all death was with a little pain I probably wouldn't fear it as much as I do.

Anesthesia is supposed to completely black you out so you don't accidentally wake up mid-surgery. I think it's better than the alternative.

NDE was different for me. Honestly have no recollection of the accident til this day. Woke up apologizing to everyone and grew closer to God irl.

It’s not like sleeping, but it ain’t that far off.

Based on experience, it’s much faster than sleep. They told me to count backwards from 10 and before I could get to like 5, I woke up to some family bedside telling me that everything went well.

I don’t even remember the moment of going under, just waking up before I could count the next number.
