Literally one of the most painful way to die. Your body completely shuts down and you basically become a walking zombie. Your bones lose density, meaning they break much easier. Your metabolism actually starts to slow down, so if you do decide to begin eating again, you will gain weight a lot easier from then on. Aside from that, it's incredibly slow and painful. Wouldn't recommend it. If you are afraid of a different method, I can assure you, most will be better than starvation. I've slit my wrists pretty badly before (I needed 8 stitches on one gash, and 7 on another) and I would much rather die that way. I used a very sharp knife, so it actually hurt less than a papercut. If I had slashed a few more times, I would've loved to die that way. (*Bonus: you get to make a mess lol)

Thank you for your message. Do you have any other methods you would recommend.
Thank you.

KHW777 - Please don't even consider it unless you have a care-giver. After a certain time, you would not be able to do anything for yourself, even turn over in bed. I watched it and know how horrible it would be without help.
I do. I'm all for people's right to choose life or death, but I will urge you to seek help before making a decision. If you really want to ctb, I can't stop you, but I'd like to help you out so you don't have to resort to this.
Another method I'd recommend is the night night method. There's information about it, but it's basically just blocking blood flow to the brain using tape, string, a tree wrench, etc. If you do it right, you will still be able to breathe, so suffocation is not a concern. I've tried this before too. It's about as painful as slicing your wrists (so not really painful) and it makes you feel a bit dizzy and lightheaded, and you will lose consciousness quite fast. Feel free to read more about it. There are many threads on the NN method.

Honestly I don't what to anymore. I can't sleep at anymore. I mean litterally can fall asleep. When I eat anything I feel nothing no energy at all. It's like my body rejects sleep and food. Seems like it is already shutting down. I already feel like a walking zombie. Are other methods you would recommend. Thank you.

@khw777, I'm sorry you're contemplating such things. Please look through the List of Resources near the top of the forum - it's full of links to information about various methods.

@khw777 Have you spoken to a psychiatrist/psychologist? They might be able to help you. And yeah, it seems like you're suffering from depression or ptsd of some sort. My body has been rejecting food and I am afraid to fall asleep due to the horrible nightmares I'm having due to ptsd. Would you like to PM me and maybe we can share stories of our experiences?

Have you gotten any medical advice about your condition? It sounds thoroughly unpleasant and I'm sorry you're suffering, but it also sounds like something medical science could help with (even if medical science is part of what's caused it).

I think going to doctors is something you have to be persistent with. I saw at least 5 different counsellors before finally getting anti-anxiety medications, and they helped me so much. I'm sure there is help out there for you too.
