Do you think the way drowning feels counts as a pain?

[Anonymous]

Maybe not the same type of pain people experience or that one would think about but it's so uncomfortable to breathe in water that it almost seems to be like a new kind of painful, I don't know if I asked this before but I feel like I have but in case I didn't.

It's a long death because the person fights to stay alive, then eventually runs out of energy, they sink slowly and they can't breathe - but they are alive and feeling their lungs replace their air with water.
Very sad😢

[Asker]

Yea and feel the weird feeling in the lungs

[MemeSupreme]

so i've almost drowned twice and its not like normal pain

its just extremely uncomfortable and your body is fighting against it. very tiring tho bc at least for me bc i couldn't keep my head above the water, so i'd get like oxygen for like.2 seconds

[MemeSupreme]

OH YEAH

going up and breathing deeply for that short window only to go under during it is fucking painful lol

[Asker]

How do you get yourself in these situations? 😂

[MemeSupreme]

ITS NOT MY FAULT

when i was 5, one kid kept trying drown me in a pool while my dad was asleep. the 2nd time, a kid and i dared to go into the deep end at a water park, but it randomly got full fast af. the rope i was hanging onto HE KEPT SHAKING INTENTIONALLY, so i just lost my grip and went under while it was crowded with adults. i struggled my way to the side and crawled out like it was a movie coughing

[Asker]

Aww, did you learn how to swim after that or have you still not learned your lesson cause if it was me I'd be swimming the next day 😂

[MemeSupreme]

I KNEW HOW but it got crowded and i was panicking while the fucker was shaking the rope

not like it matters now bc i'm tall lol

[Asker]

Water doesn't stop getting deeper after 5'9 ft 😂

[MemeSupreme]

most pools aren't 6ft deep

[Asker]

So now you are 6ft, you were 5'9 last time 😂

[MemeSupreme]

what lol i said i was 5'10"

and most pools with a deep end are like 6ft, chica

[Asker]

Oh so you are an inch taller than the one I stated, wow 😂

It's absolutely one of the worst ways I can think of to die. I think the only thing that would be worse would be to die in a fire.

[Asker]

Indeed so lol

[sirderpsalot123]

I've heard it feels like you're being crushed. Sounds painful.

[Asker]

Really, have you ever accidentally breathed water? From the bits of water that I'd inhaled, it seems unexplainable

[petitedollbabee]

Drowning is one of the most painful ways to die. I don’t know why people think that it’s painless or a good way to go. It is not quick, either.

[Asker]

Yea that along with burning to death lol

[electromagnetic]

Drowning is slow and I’m sure painful. Your body is literally begging for air as it fills with water. I can only imagine the panic and fear and those who knew this was their fate.

[Asker]

I can only imagine the panic and fear only speeds it up since you breathe faster

[CubaPirate]

I'd rather not find out tbh

[Asker]

Lol same

Yes, I believe so.
