Sure, N is a fantastic peaceful way to pass on, but it is difficult to acquire it legitimately and legally. It is also rather costly.

Very wise coming from someone who that exact thing happened too. Woke up after 2 weeks in a coma, horrific hallucinations and delirium and left with a smashed up body.
When they brought me out the coma and told me I jumped 2 weeks ago my first thought was fucking hell noone found me for 2 weeks!
@RedPanda
Hey RedPanda, if you still want the jumping route, let me introduce you to this bridge. It only 656 feet hight, but it should do the job. It call Rio Grande Gorge Bridge in the state of New Mexico, USA.
It NOT a tourist bridge so you won't be seeing alot of people walk on there, and there NO security around. It in the middle of no where, as you can see from the pic.
When I was there, there was no one on the bridge, and I only see few cars drove by.
This bridge has the history of 121 people who jump and died here already. So they have 10 helpline phones along the bridge, so they install those phone, if you ever change your mind you press the red button it will direct you to the helpline. NO one ever press that phone though eversince they put it up, make sense, who the hell that are 'serious' about suicide would press that helpline phone. They go there to jump, period.
Anyways, those 10 phone is like evenly distribute throughout the bridge. I pick the 5th phone to jump due to that is in the middle of the bridge, you always want to jump at the middle, to make sure you hit the bottom without rocks or mountain on the way break your free fall.
I got chicken out, I broke the first rule of jumping is I look straight out, 656 feet, it looks HIGH. Yes, it doesn't look high in the pic, but when you actually there in person look down, it looks HIGH!. My legs start trembling and I chicken out.
Well, now I know next time I won't look down.
I still debate between this bridge of the 1,000 feet tourist bridge. The tourist bridge is higher, but you really need to watch out since there be alot of tourist walking on it.
This bridge on the other hand, it in the middle of no where, and NOT a tourist bridge. So you only see few cars drive by if you lucky (depends on the time of the day). Last time I was there, I saw ONE coyote, lol. I'm sure there more coyote (perhaps a pack) that will come out when the sun go down, that what you get when you chose a bridge that in the middle of no where.
This bridge is closer to the state where I live than the 1,000 feet one. I like this one due to there nothing here, no one can help you if you in the middle of no where. Even if you don't die of blood loss, those coyotes probably go sniff you if they smell human blood flesh, lol. oh, and I also saw those big birds flying around up in the sky, those birds probably go sniff you too lol

@Kodama
Thank you Sir for like this bridge post of mine.
So which one you recommend? The 1,000 feet bridge on page 1, or this 656 feet bridge? This one it in the middle of no where, it easier for me to jump you know as there won't be people around like the 1,000 feet tourist bridge. That tourist bridge I need to be quick, like climb on without thinking and just throw myself over quick before any tourist see me.
This 656 feet one, I not have to worry about that as it in the middle of no where.
Which one would you chose? Or it doesn't matter. Wouldn't 656 feet be too low in height, as in chance of survive?
I did yes, it was a long time before that happened as I had to learn to walk etc before they could move me but I got transported straight from general to psych.
Na, I'd had that before in the psych ward but I needed it and they had offered it as a pill before doing the IM. Are you in the UK?
Possibly can't answer that though I'm afraid. Definitely no strip search here. I have had to take everything including my bra off before but they let me cover up and it was because they'd found razors on me previously so I was fine with it. I'd wear my own clothes, they'd wash them for me, bring us ice creams when it was hot haha. Don't get me wrong there was a lot of very unwell people in there but I'm quite 'normal' so had a really good relationship with them all. I'd been in there previously too so that helped. The only horrible thing was because they knew I was 'normal' they'd sometimes talk to me in ways they wouldn't to someone who was for explained psychotic. Like when they forgot to take me to an appointment and they told me it was my fault as it was my job to remember and take some responsibility. I did actually say to them what the fuck if I was anyone else in here you would not say that to them, you're here to look after me don't forget.
And yes I'm a girl too haha. Part of me still can't believed I jumped but part of me always knew it would happen. I too am scared of heights and standing there before doing it was terrifying but that doesn't really matter when you're so focused on jumping.
This made my day. People literally die from falling in the shower and down flights of stairs.
I have a picture from there, will see if I find. It looks like you land on sea, but you land on rocks. Not expensive, you don't need tickets, but it's like 20$ or something for the ferry from Stavanger. After that you take a bus or taxi to the start- and then hike for 2 hours and you're there. There are alot of tourists. No one is checking on you, and there's no fence or net anywhere. Almost everyone speaks english. You can sit on the edge for as long as you want without people look suspicious at you.
