Dieing from Hysteria
So I have a Sim who I am trying to kill off by hysteria. I get him into hysterical emotion with happy potion, playful decor, and had him telling jokes on the microphone all day and he still won’t die....

Honestly, death from laughter is probably the most dangerous one to watch for. If you want to do it deliberately, it's not hard. Get them constantly doing "funny" interactions. When "Hysterical", a warning does pop up. For this reason (partially) is why I have mirrors everywhere to "Try and calm down". heh heh!!
A played Sim or an NPC will do it autonomously if full autonomy is on, AND there is a mirror close by. Still. if a played Sim gets to that point, I cancel everything they are doing and get them to a mirror.
I've never seen a toddler, child, or teen die from it though. Yet I have two "teens", I've been actively playing now and one keeps getting to the "Hysterical" level. I didn't know it has to be "Young Adult" or older so I have been sending him to the mirror every time.
EDIT: I'm thinking perhaps a "happy" potion may override the "playful" instead of contributing to it even when they reach "Hysterical". :grey_question:
(Or any potion that gives another emotion boost)
