Does anyone have any ideas on how to mitigate the guilt of dying via suicide?

I suppose leaving a note of explanation, tidying up affairs if possible, conveying that the decision was the result of years of suffering, and that every waking moment was a certain torture.

Suicide is lonesome. I leave behind few people who care, and leave no dependents or obligations to loved ones but I can't seem to shake the nagging guilty feeling, although I know rationally it is my right as an individual to choose the manner and means and timing of my death.

Can anyone relate?

I felt guilty too, until the people who I felt guilty for got police involved and shipped me off to a mental hospital. I realised how selfish these people are deep down. Everyone are out for themselves, so do what you have to do for yourself.

I will be leaving my family and I guess I feel a little guilt for that but that is all. I think I have the right to do as I please with my life or death.

Its my life and I am doing this because I am suffering like an animal.
Guilt is a luxury I cannot afford any longer.

I think it's strong if you are living with them especially.

No guilt whatsoever; no one else in my life to consider. I do however sometimes get a nagging feeling that in dying by suicide, I'm messing with something I don't fully understand. But even this is diminishing as the imperative to get this life over becomes more and more compelling.

Add another vote for no guilt whatsoever. Both of my parents are gone and I have no family or friends that care about me. It is sad to me when I read obituaries and it talks about how someone will be greatly missed. There will be no funeral for me. I am actually sad that I have to say no guilt whatsoever. To have guilt, there would have to be someone who cares. There are actually former friends and family members that will be thrilled if/when they find out I am gone. Fuck this life, I cannot take it anymore.

I have no guilt, I'm suffering too much mentally. I'm going to die sooner or later anyway, the few who care will have to deal with my death eventually. I could get a terminal disease or die tomorrow in an accident. Who cares if I kill myself or die in an accident, I will die no matter what.
