Suicide notes

[RedVioletBleeds]

Currently, I'm trying to put together a suicide note. Though, I'm unsure on what to put in it. Can anyone give me any tips/suggestions?

It depends on what are your intentions. Suicide note is a very personal thing and there simply isn't a guideline to write one, so I don't think I can help you too much.

Do you want to ease the pain of loved ones that you leave behind? Do you simply want to explain reasons for your suicide? Do you want to express feelings that you weren't able to express during your life? Do you perhaps want to say what people should do with your body and property after your death? Or maybe do you have some more unusual goal in mind?

Either way, knowing why do you want to write suicide note is necessary before you even start writing one.

First of all i cant put into words how sorry i am to do this and how gulity i feel for it. The purpose of this note is not to gain sympathy and have people feel sorry for me in anyway. I just want to tell my story so that hopefully people can understand. Understand what its like liveing with mental health issues, constant sucidal thoughts and why it is that i have decided to take my own life . Truth is ive never been happy and i truly belive i never will be. Mentally its tough to cope its got to a point where i feel am on the verge of bursting into tears every single day but i can hardly cry anymore. People will say am selfish and say how could i do this and i agree , i know it is and wish more than anything i didnt feel this way but i do im tired ive been fighting for 8 years and picked my self out of many deep holes but i just want the pain to be over now.


That's my letter think am also gunna
thank people that had helped me and go on to say had troubles through my life. health was a factor and certain other things had upset me

The main focus of mine is to take full responsibility for my actions, to stress there is nothing they could have said or done to change my mind, my life, my rules, my decision and to stress this one act does not wipe out the good I have done.

I think it's a very personal thing and depends on so many different factors.

I would just start jotting down your thoughts, and keep adding to it whenever you think of something.

Then later you can try to reduce it down or remove duplicate items, and organise it better, etc.

Respekt!

I feel like it's too personal to just use a template for. Maybe think of who you are writing to and just imagine them with you, and say what you wish you could tell them but can't in person. It's basically the last thing you'll ever be able to say to them and what they'll hold onto when you're gone, so what do you want that to be?

The only thing I can think of that I might write is that no one pressured me, it was my decision.

I think it's too personal to ask on here for. Is it for everyone or one per person? Do you want to tell people why you did it or do you just want to say goodbye?
I think you should start by hitting down your thoughts separately and combine them to make the note.

Much Love xx

I'm not the one to leave a note, but if I was....... I always thought of video or voice recording. The feeling you get thru those mediums seem to hit the right tone on what needs to get across to whoever is privy to listen or watch.
