Discussion Alcohol and it's effects on SI

[britter]

I'm pretty much at my tipping point now, I've given up on looking for SN sources within Australia.
I'm probably just going to CTB by hanging myself (short drop).
Curious about whether I should get wasted beforehand, if it'll calm me down during the process, if it'll make it quicker etc.
Does anybody have any knowledge or experience with alcohol and it's potential dampening effects on survival instinct?
Thanks in advance.

Alcohol was thisclose from making me egg some stranger's car that's still parked in front of my house.

They don't call it liquid courage for nothing.

On the other hand, alcohol makes you sloppy. You literally don't give a shit. You don't tie the knot correctly. You text people goodbye messages like "Peace out fuckers!" and reveal your plans.

It's a fine line. Being a little tipsy is ok I suppose. But don't get wasted.

I mean ideally alcohol is the closer for me. I'd get everything set up and ready to go before enjoying my last hour or so getting drunk enough to fall forward and die with no care in the world.
I'd be out of service range and my Sim card would be left at home, so no way for me to contact anybody. In a perfect world I'm never found.

For a lot of people, alcohol lowers inhibitions. When I used to drink, it never really did that for me, but for most, it does.
