Help Exit bag or gunshot to head.

[oxymoron]

Which one would you go for?

 

[lowres]

Even though a gun would be ultimately more effective it goes against my beliefs to use a weapon for anything other than hunting or self defense.

 

[issyishere]

gunshot is a bit more volatile but it would work instantly if done correctly, exit bag is the safer bet if you prepare correctly and what not

 

[max6802]

A gun shot would be instantly but the bag would take some time

 

[heheb27595]

Weapons are too expensive if not impossible in Canada.

Gunshots don't kill instantly, unless you hit your brainstorm, which is a difficult and risky target for a self-inflicted GSW. Gunshots to other parts of the brain kill by exsanguination (blood loss). Reports from people who've survived a gunshot to the head are actually mixed about their levels of pain and consciousness after the fact.

It's certainly one of the most lethal and least painful methods, if all goes well, but it has it's downsides, especially for people who survive the experience.

 

[a_strange_day]

The bag. Peaceful, painless and clean.

 

[Ashtoash]

Both sounds great. But yeah, exit bag is cleaner and like going to sleep.

Tactical shotgun kill instantly, if you blow your head to pieces, yes. Literally in pieces, it kill instantly. You can't be conscious if you don't have a head anymore.

You haven't see this video do you? Watch it. This guy BLOW his head to pieces. He died INSTANTLY. He no longer have a head left to begin with, that instant black out. dead.

I guess you never shot with a shotgun before therefore you don't know how powerful it can be. Those who survived gunshot to head are handgun or rifle. NOT shotgun. Your head will literally blow to pieces if you aim a shotgun point blank muzzle to skin and pull the trigger.

Watch this ok before make statement like shotgun don't kill you instantly, LOL

OP, I go with a shotgun. Like this guy. One second and lights out. You WILL die if you don't have a head left.

Exit bag? Let just say I'm scare to be suffocate. The feeling of suffocate and choking are definately not nice. I need something quick, BAM, gone. And that need a gun.

Depends on your personality OP. But I would go with a gun.

Fair point, or perhaps the exception that proves the rule... but a tactical shotgun is an unusual choice for a suicide, and doesn't apply to the general medical fact that fatal cranial trauma causes death by blood loss, unless the brain stem is destroyed (in which case it's instant).

Those who survived gunshot to head are handgun or rifle. NOT shotgun.

There are documented cases of shotgun suicides requiring multiple shots to the head, actually. As with any long gun, it's easy to score a glancing blow that's not quickly fatal, or a blow in the mouth/jaw that misses the brain entirely, and so on. It's rare, but it happens, even with shotguns. (Not to mention the occasional case where someone tries with a smaller gauge shotgun loaded with bird shot.)

Exit bag? Let just say I'm scare to be suffocate. The feeling of suffocate and choking are definately not nice.

Inert gas asphyxiation does not cause the feeling of suffocation. That feeling is caused by something called the hypercapnic response, which is how the body reacts to a build up of carbon dioxide in the blood. Without that build up, there's no feeling of suffocation, so that's not a concern with the exit bag method.

Please stop posting this stuff. What is this place honestly? If I had one I'd use a gun but I'm not going to watch someone else use one. It's just another reason to commit suicide. The world is going to hell and I'm not contributing to it

 

[AlreadyGone]

Neither

 

[BeGone]

Exit bag since the consequences from a failed attempt would be less severe.

Hi,
May you please be mindful of others and at least put that picture in spoilers? There's something eerie of seeing a minor CTBing.

@oxymoron, what kind of gun is it? I'd go with a gun if it had a decent calibre, and personally if it were a handgun, and I'm aware some disagree on this, I'd let myself drop into a noose, just to make sure in case I somehow bungled it.

Sorry, for being nitpicky, but that's not true. Shotgun is just as much about placement as is a handgun. There are numerous cases of people blowing the front of their faces off with a shotgun. Placing a firearm upwards below one's chin is a bad idea, as are temple shots, despite both of these constantly being promoted by movies.

Even though a gun would be ultimately more effective it goes against my beliefs to use a weapon for anything other than hunting or self defense.

Sounds like self defense to me.

Kahr 9mm. Is it good enough?

According to the gun thread it is, and they recommend hollow point ammo and p+. TAW122 should be able to tell you more about this, @thrw_a_way1221221. Mind you the exit bag, that's helium, right? Do you have pure helium, because they're now lacing it with oxygen from what I've heard.

No, I don't think the EB is helium, but more commonly, Nitrogen, which is N₂ gas. And yes, I heard that "balloon time" helium tanks are filled not with pure helium, therefore it is not 'reliable' in terms of CTB'ing with them. I think their reasoning is partially due to the growing scarcity of helium in the world, but also probably partially due to some people using it to CTB.

Also, I don't have access to either gas just fyi. @TiredHorse's exitbag megathread might contain more information about specifics and what not. There are also other people who know more than I do in regards to that method.

So like whats the proper way.?

 

[issyishere]

for which?

 

[BPD Barbie]

If I had the option for a gun, I'd probably chose it. But the clean up after for whoever finds you is brutal to deal with.
That live leak video someone posted above, somewhere was with him while he did it? That's crazy stuff.

 

[BFishy]

I have guns and in the past almost used one. Now that I'm older, I'm thinking a bag. As said before, it's cleaner and now I think of others not just family and so on.

 

[Keto]

Definitely gun shot for me. Fast and reliable with 99% probability of death and no worry of my SI

 

[MrOptions]

Won't even hear the slide rack back.

 

[Majin K.]

Exit bag is too much effort. If I had a gun any other method would be meaningless to me.

 

[Nitromask]

Exit bag for sure

 

[HelensNepenthe]

That's what they suggest on their website. I can only speculate that there is some validity to this, but I also think it was the concerns of self-assisted termination groups suggesting to use their product as it was widely accessible. In addition to helium not really making much too financial sense to capture.

 

[Yomyom]

I don't like both of the methods, but if I had to choose, it will be exit bag, there's something peaceful in that method

 

[color_me_gone]

no worry of my SI

I don't know about you, but a lot of people have a hard time pulling the trigger. Admittedly, once you do that, there is no time to back out, but most people know this, so pulling the trigger is still extremely hard. @TiredHorse was also knowledgeable of guns, he tried using one, but couldn't pull the trigger. SI is a bitch, no matter what method you use.

I would definitely struggle to pull the trigger. I don't think I would struggle with going through with exit bag though
