Discussion Apart from alcohol, how do you dampen your SI?

[VegasLyra]

Alcohol is obviously one of the best ways to dampen your survival instinct, and my god is SI a complete bitch. But if alcohol is out of the equation, what other ways are there to dampen or completely remove your SI?

i dont wanto to dampen it i want to make it worse so i can get out of this purgatory hallucination already im jealous if alcohol actually makes anything beter, cant have shit in this fucking place, "obviously one of the best ways' god give me anything that makes me not in pain for a second

Amphetamine kinda dulls your sense of self

Don't drink coffee or caffeine a few days or weeks before. Caffeine itself greatly amplifies anxiety.

3 things work for me

1. Visualize it, feel it, get used to the idea
2. Take your preferred drug or substance
3. Use a method you can ease into. OD, hanging, something you can ease into. Even on the day you're going through with it something you can start, get a feel for, calm yourself as you contemplate if this is really what you need, something that doesn't require force that can just naturally happen with minimal effort from you

Im not sure if I will ever be able to just grab a gun and shoot myself but I'll definitely sip on some sn

Im going to use alcohol in a combination with a few pills of Tradonal. I still have a few left of my broken bone. Im not sure if it would actually do something...
My plan is also to take Ashwaganda a few weeks before, I get super depressed of them

Do benzos actually work for this? My suicidal ideation is fuelled by anxiety, I've got easy access to xans but I'm worried if I get rid of my anxiety I won't want to CTB anymore lol.

I've been thinking of doing practice runs for partial hanging (my method of choice) until I normalise the idea and become comfortable with it.
