Please help review my plan

[lurker299]

So im thinking of buying a rope, alcohol, find an overpass and tie the rope to it. My hope is that it will break my neck on the way down. The alcohol is to make me more fearless. Am i missing anything or should i know anything else? Is it a good plan?

An overpass..... may not have anything both slender enough to tie the rope around and strong enough to hold you. The alcohol may make you open to all kinds of things, such as not following through, especially for such an ambitious plan. If somehow you manage to tie the rope, and it isn't a far enough drop to break your neck, you will dangle and may be rescued especially if there's traffic witnessing. Related, do you have any issues with subjecting specifically unrelated people to watching a suicide? it can be very traumatic so picking a public space created literally for traffic is a spicy choice.

I think it is a very poor plan.

Well what do you suggest? Should i just find a big tree? So no alcohol got it. But is there anything i can take that can help surpress the survival instinct?

Lol there's a lot of options....... Are there certain things you won't do or that appeal to you? If you imagine you can climb over an overpass to off yourself, maybe jumping off a bridge would work. If you have a means of transportation, just pick one; society would prefer one that isn't over a populated space.

To suppress the survival instinct, I would recommend conviction and preparation. Even if you feel fear in the moment, if you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that what you're doing is right, there's no rational reason not to do it, hopefully that can power you through irrational instinct. And if you lack this conviction, you probably aren't ready to kill yourself

What's the survival rate for jumping off an overpass??
