Discussion I get SNs popularity on here, but that seems like the worst method to me

[Egddios]

No matter what you do to kill yourself, someone you know will be asked to identify the body afaik. Identifying a mangled corpse of a loved one would be quite traumatic, I would think.

I have multiple tattoos and if my family weren't able to look at my corpse, I'd bet they'd use photos of "distinguishing marks". I'm going with SN and live alone, won't be bothered.

I've seen a lot of unprepared corpses in my day and they all look a little grey and blue anyway

My method has always been and always will be jumping off of a bridge. I have no issue ruing my life but I wont ruin my family's by dying in my childhood home. SN is cheap and easy to get, I understand. And maybe its just me, but the thought of any of my family members finding me blue makes me sick. How do you get past that? I would rather cause myself immeasurable pain that do that to my grandma.

Like voyager said,You could book a hotel room. Hang a large sheet in the entry way to block the view or use the door(if the room has an extra bedroom in it),and leave a note on it. You could even use the bathroom inside the room then put the note on that door if there's not an extra room. The maid could call the authorities. This would be less traumatizing to the maid. Just remember almost any method you use will leave a body behind for others to find. Many people use a hotel room and may do what I stated.





If you need someone to talk to,I'm here. I don't know how long I will Be alive. But I'll reply as long as I am.



I wish you luck and may you find peace.

I have never considered using SN and couldn't do as have very severe gastric problems anyway, so would be a no go method for me. When I researched it awhile back and seen about making body blue, then that made me shudder too. I am suicidal, but will always think about the consequences, prior, during and after and that will always include state of my body and the poor souls who have to find me and deal with the process. So will wish to make it kindest not only to myself but others afterwards. I say kind to myself too, cos I dont deserve a painful or horrid way out, I have suffered enough here, so am wishing to exit peacefully as poss, just dont know a way yet.

Your method of jumping, will take a lot of guts and strength, SI will be very strong. Its not a method I would choose for many reasons. But regards SN it seems popular awhile as its fairly cheap and easy to obtain, but I wouldn't personally trust it as a way to go for myself and am very scared and wary when others choose the method.

What a well put message.

Sure but then some random maid is going to find you.

And chances are a random stranger will find your bloated, mutilated corpse somewhere after you've jumped. Might even be a child or a young, impressionable person.

In a hotelroom it might be possible to put up a sign warning anyone of what they're going to find if they proceed. With jumping there is no such possiblity.

I don't want to be morbid or offensive but jumping does leave a much bigger mess than SN.

Your heart will also start racing when your blood can't anymore deliver enough oxygen to your body and that might make some people panic.

That made me panic and self rescue when I tried to ctb slashing my wrists. Not enough blood to deliver oxygen to my body. I was literally panting for air, whole body hurt, so much pain. Worst part was definitely not being able to breathe while still alive, not knowing how long it would last. I was so close to death upon arriving at the hospital, tho, I now know more what to expect regarding timing and how it feels and am contemplating this method again, maybe. My alternative is jumping (appeal: no going back).

Well that must have been a bit unpleasant. :(

Well that must have been a bit unpleasant. :(

Yeah, I just thought "the experts" could make the pain stop. I had lactic acidosis which is when lactic acid builds up when there's not enough oxygen in the muscles. All this acid buildup in my muscle tissues made everything painful. Just an all over, awful pain. That pain combined with the panic of not breathing is what pushed me to self rescue, unfortunately.

The kicker; I brought my phone in only to play music, and I panicked and called 911. If I had just brought my ipod instead, i would have been physically too weak to get up and go get my phone. I would have died.

Dont bring your phone with you to ctb! I wish someone had said that to me. I had everything else perfect, the hotel, the time needed, everything.

I am drawn towards jumping off a bridge but I'm scared of heights and bridges in particular which is ironic but I'd never be able to over come my fear and get over the railings. I've been going to a local motorway bridge and trying to overcome my fears by going a little further onto it each time but I physically can't do it, it's caused me panic attacks in the past so it's not an option sadly. I do worry about how my body will be found and who by when I do CTB though and it's not nice to think of a loved one seeing you. I don't know a way round this at this point.

I live alone and the note I'm going to leave expressly states that no one but the EMT should enter the house because I've taken my life and you don't want that in your memory banks. Anyone can leave note like that so you're not discovered by family or friends.

Doesn't a family member have to identify the body regardless, however? Idk how that works.

Maybe - but I'd have ID next to me, etc. I have it all planned out. Who else would be here dying in my home if it wasn't me? LOL. I also have a DNR and a signed/notarized living will so I don't get hooked up to any machines. I have all the legal documents in place.

I respect the fact that you are kindly and compassionately hoping to spare your family any trauma.
This is a pro-choice website, and there is a lot of research material available here:

Whatever you decide, I wish you peace.

I long for a future where barbaric medieval laws no longer force suffering people to make painful decisions.

You can leave a note, but that does not mean that people will have to adhere to it.

I also have legal documents. The only one that would try to save me is my mother, and I doubt she'd go against my wishes.

Can so relate to this.it makes me sad when folks on here put themselves through painful difficult endings that they or others dont deserve. Yes there will never be the fully blissful ending apartt from maybe n. But its so nice that folks are being considerate after so much suffering, to themselves and others as long as someone is in a neutral place and the warning signs are placed, everything is fair. Although not pleasant, the authorities see dead bodies every day and the more peaceful the better x
