To be honest, I've had it with worrying about painless or not, agonizing or not, comfortable or not. Those are all distractions that paralyze my taking action. What I need is certainty, quickness, and to minimize the immediate impact on others. I've previously been through agonizing pain, and multiple times, too; I can take it all knowing that it will end, especially if the timescale involved is definitely short.
A lot of people seem to want their death to be guaranteed easier on the nerve endings than a routine visit to the dentist. I don't think this is realistic, ever, at least not without MD-level internal medicine or anesthesiology training and probably a real anesthetist or CRNA to monitor everything, study your chemistry and physiology to make the best choice, etc. In other words, forget it. They won't help you. All they want is to keep you alive regardless of any other consideration.
Unfortunately, a lot of the most certain and quick methods leave a huge traumatic, gory mess for some poor underpaid sap to have to deal with. Guns, falls, trains, etc. Inflicting PTSD on others I will not, if I can help it.
The least impactful-on-first-responders methods we have seem to be less quick, and the methods that are most certain might include some suffering. So be it.
Bring on the agony. If it's temporary, I can take it.
What I can't take: the endless mental anguish, the intense self-loathing, the constant suicidal fantasies. Mental pain isn't visible, but it is fucking real. If I must suffer a little for just awhile to end greater, permanent suffering, then suffer a little I shall.
Certain as it can realistically be. Relatively quick. Minimized impact on first responders. That's what I need. Not necessarily painless.
Getting closer, folks. Basically, I'm just working out how best to overcome SI without stopping myself in my tracks before I even get started. That SN in the basement closet is looking better and better.
Thanks for reading.
