when you die from blood loss, do you feel like you are dying from not being able to breathe? Because your lungs are breathing but you’re not getting oxygen where it needs to go, would it feel something like suffocating?

I haven’t suffered from severe blood loss, but I have suffered from severe lack of blood pressure, which I imagine feels similar. It’s incredibly unpleasant; your whole body is just in an uproar about not getting oxygen. You become weak, dizzy and it really just feels like your life is slipping out of your body. I wasn’t in any danger, but it genuinely felt like I was dying.
