Would that not be Carbon dioxide poisoning rather than hypoxia?

[-] HamSwagwich@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Indeed it would. The CO2 would trigger the breathing reflex and panic. Hypoxia does not trigger that and you start to lose yourself, similar to being drunk.

Yeah I got a bit hypoxic on a mountain, it was 29F with a wind and here I am taking off my jacket feeling nice and warm overly euphoric.

I’m not a doctor, but I stayed at a holiday in express last night.
