Hello, I am a 20-year-old man looking to CTB. I will not be using this thread to vent on the reasons why: my mind is completely made up. I want to discuss what I have done, what I'm going to do, and what I should do.
In the past couple days, I have written exhaustive notes to everyone in my life. There are a litany of people who love and support me, and I want to make sure they know this was not their fault. I love these people genuinely and unconditionally; I would never want to amplify their pain. My plan is to send these notes on the night I CTB, likely around 4 AM so no one is awake.
That being said, I am still indecisive on the method I would like to use. I bought rope tonight, but I am unsure if it is the right method for me to pursue. I would either do this at a motel or in the woods, likely a motel since it would be a less open area. I know I need at least thirty minutes, so I will be sure to be far away from anyone who could potentially stop me.
I am aware of two other methods I have heard are effective: firearms and SN. I live in Virginia and believe it is possible to purchase a shotgun below the age of 21. I have no idea how obtaining/practicing SN works at all: I've heard it's effective and painless, but that's about it. What information should I look into on this matter? What recommendations do you have regarding my situation?
Lastly, I want to emphasize how happy I feel about all of this. Regardless of where this goes, I am happy to be going there. Thank you.
