Method that will send you not he hospital but may not kill you?

[blvck]

I'm trying decide if I want to attemlt partial hanging this week or not. But apart of me wants to just wake up in the hospital. Maybe then everyone will rake me seriously. I also thought about CO2 poisoning. If they have time to find me, maybe I won't be dead from that. Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

[LegaliseIt!]

Spend time on the recovery forum.
C02 is carbon dioxide.
I'm glad that you have people in your life, even if you doubt them sometimes.
You are strong!

Honestly I'd just ask for help instead of doing this. I was hospitalised for a suicide attempt and it was hell. The way the staff treated me was inhumane. They looked at me like I was scum, because I tried to kill myself. I really don't recommend this as a way of getting help when there are far easier alternatives

 

[LostBoy20]

you can jump from a building that isnt high enough to kill you, also when falling try to protect your head
but i wouldnt do that, you may end up crippled and no one really want that

Overdose on regular antipsychotics, or benzos.
Almost no chance that you will die, hospital stay guaranteed.

As been mentioned already, you should ask for help instead. However, if you are certain that you want to through with this your best option is probably to slash your wrists. It's surprisingly difficult to die of that, unless you cut really deep and reach the artery. (If you want to die from blood loss it's better to puncture your femoral artery.)

 

[BridgeJumper]

I think overdose is better because theres a good chance it will leave little to none lasting damage
My wrists look so freaky now, I hate them. Wear long sleeves all year long

Probably swallowing a bunch of OTC pills

I experienced this also, from doctors mainly, the nurses were alright. What I find interesting looking back was how differently they treated me when I was seen as more of a risk to others. One psychiatrist who shouted at me and wagged her finger because I admitted to suicidal thoughts to my CPN, was completely different when I later I was admitted to hospital due to difficulties controlliing my temper and paranoid thoughts which led to me threatening to chop another mans head off. This same psychiatrist coached me on what to say to the police and actually phoned up my community nurse and the supported accomodation where I was staying and defended me. I was later told by my community psychiatrist that my anger was part of my personality disorder and I should stop beating myself up about it. I was treated with understanding and care when I had been aggressive and abusive to other people.

For some reason medical staff see suicidal ideation and attempts as manipulation and time wasting when they could be looking after 'sick people'. I noticed they treated the drunks who were also there due to self inflicted injury with more care.

Why would you want to wake up in the hospital over a failed suicide attempt? You're going to be put in the psychiatric ward with someone watching you non stop, even when you go to the bathroom. I don't understand this one.

I guess for someone to notice the mental pain they are in. Most people won't believe mental pain until they see it themselves.

Well does the psych ward seem appealing to you? And if they know you are in mental pain then what? Are you open to seeing a shrink and a therapist because what else can someone do for you?

I think the OP is desperate for help and they're not getting it. I'm sure they know the risks of their actions. I don't think they should be judged for wanting help by any means though.

I'm sorry you're not being taken seriously @blvck

I'm sorry youre at a point of considering a suicide attempt for people to take you seriously. You shouldn't have to try to die in order for people to take you seriously. If you think you need to be hospitalized, that can happen without an attempt if you express your suicidal ideation to someone. You can even admit yourself or at least get an intake interview if you're over 18 and in the USA (not sure about admitting yourself as a minor). Otherwise, I encourage you to not go through with any plan if you aren't sure that you want to die, as pretty much any method COULD be fatal, even if it's typically not. You deserve to get help and be listened to. Sending love

I'm not judging anyone.

No one WANTS to die. I just don't have any othee choice. They say all this "permanent solution, etc", but what do I do if I'm the problem. The world around me could be in serene conditions, but I'm still broken. I never wanted to kill myself over something that happenes with another person, or money problems etc.

I just hate seeing myself every day. I hate being a scared little rat. I just want to eliminate myself.

On the other hand, I think about my family. The only reason I want to sort of end upnin the hospital alive is sort of my last effort to reach them. For the sake of their feelings...or whatever.

But if I die, thats okay too.

Why don't you just try to talk to them? Honestly open to them and tell them everything.
How old are you? What went wrong?

if i tell them...or anyone everything...i think my heart will explode in my chest. i have a history of running away from my problems when they get too much to bear. But this problem I can't run from. Atleast not anymore.
I don't easily open up to anyone, even about smaller things. I keep it all inside. Even though thats probably the one thing that can save me, I'd rather die than bear the pain of opening up and telling someone. it's sad, I know.

i dont have any close friends i can tell. It's just too hard to open up. I...can't do it. :(

I just finished crying again...this is such a hard choice to make.

oh and im 23

Have you considered doing a serious change and just getting away from things? Running away does not really help unless you are running to something that can help. Not sure what your core issues are to be able to gives any practical solutions to you, but there maybe some out there. But it is a risk when you make a change but when the gamble works, the rewards can be huge. Don't paint yourself into a corner, instead build a door and move into something better. If I was your age, I would have a few things I would do to escape and cbt would probably be the last thing on my list or put myself in a facility to be locked down. The ancient Chinese have a saying: 'The devil gives us our family but its the gods that give us our friends'.

Sometimes talking to a stranger or strangers is easier than talking to a friend to be honest. That in reality is what this place provides.

Well No a psych ward doesn't personally sound appeling. However I see a therapist and she notices my pain and validates it whilst most don't.
Someone else just knowing the pain you experiance just like people knowing on these forums, makes a massive difference im feeling lonely or not

I can completely understand that. I just don't want you to do something that is going to get you into trouble or make you more miserable.
