Gotta wonder what it's like to be in that state of mind. Is it like living in a dream? Is it a living hell? Are you aware that you can't wake up? Ugh, freaks me out.

I would think/hope you are better off dead at that point.

If I'm correct they give you one drug that makes it so you can't move and the other knocks you out. What happens is the one works so you can't move or talk and the one thats suppose to knock you out does not work. So you know and feel whats going on but you cannot tell the doctors your sill not knocked out.

I'd rather be dead at that point

Article made reference to the story from a few months back about the guy who spent 23 years in the same type of situation
