Thinking of going all in: Shooting myself in the head.

[Cockney_Rebel]

Yes, I'm based in the UK but I have access to firearms.

I've tried many other methods (to CTB) but believe that gunshot to the head is the ultimate.

That and jumping, but I want it to be violent. I want it to be extreme. I want it to make the news, to highlight what the mental health "service" has done to me.

I could either shoot myself in the head, or fire off a few rounds into the air, for SO19 to arrive, level my Glock 9mm at the Heckler & Koch MP5 wielding firearms officers and simply let them do the business.

Some may say that me being off of the antipsychotics & antidepressants is causing my fantasies to ramp up. But I don't think I'm unwell, so I'm not taking that shit and getting all fat again.

I usually get excited at this stage (when I've semi-formulated a plan) but I actually feel rather flat. Calm, and collected.

Anyway, I would welcome any feedback from my SS brothers and sisters.

Thanks in advance, and good luck on your own journey.

Oh, bud. Have you done your research and practiced? This method has tons of survivors. This is a horrible way to die and definitely not the best one. Death is not guaranteed, and long, excruciating pain persist.

Agreed. Also I don't think it would make the news, people ctb every day and it's not publicised. The only way it would be newsworthy would be if you went all Columbine but obviously you don't want to do that.

You need to ring the newspapers to come first. Do it outside the BBC/major network near you. Ps. Who the hell let you have a firearm dude ;))

I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but I have seen some stories on here of gunshot survivors and some of them end up horribly disfigured. Granted, a high powered shotgun is no joke, but I also think it's a matter of survival instinct getting in the way. It is really, really, REALLY hard to hold a gun to your head and actually pull the trigger unless you're out of sorts in some way. I don't know if it makes any difference to you, but I believe you deserve a peaceful exit out of this nasty life. I mean, it's the least you can do for yourself so you don't have to feel terrified in your last moments. Just my two cents.

According to statistic the headshot is one of the most reliable and quickest way to CTB.

 

[Cockney_Rebel]

I've been to jail twice, so I have connections.

I can acquire one with just a bit of legwork.

It would of course be illegal, but if I'm CTB then who gives a fuck, right?

Please don't do this. :(
As someone has already mentioned, this is a difficult method to be successful, but it also wraps too many other people into your solution. The psychological impact on those who have to kill you should be weighed.

You lucky bastard. I wish I had a small buckshot firing gun I could easily hold to my head and just go so instantly. It's a literal pipe dream for me; there's not a cat in hells chance I'd acquire a gun.

I want it to make the news, to highlight what the mental health "service" has done to me.

The MSM and the top brass will spin it their way if even they bothered to make coverage. Your message is not their consideration. You'd be better of bursting your letter in e-mail form to the NHS, Gov. Deps, Local Rep. and on public forums; do this just before you intend to suicide.

level my Glock 9mm at the Heckler & Koch MP5 wielding firearms officers and simply let them do the business.

Our armed response are trained to find any opportunity to use less-than lethal - they may taser, then arrest you. If they fire at you, they are also trained to shoot-to-disable, as opposed to shoot-to-kill; in other words - you'd do a better job yourself, away from public. Perhaps even use a large potato as a poor mans silencer; don't need to attract attention.

I'm not taking that shit

I don't blame you.

Honestly, I envy you for the means you have at your disposal; I'd give my life for a shot and a gun that could fire it.

Please reconsider. People get busted for guns all the time and minium sentence is 5 years and that's just for possession. Don't think being in prison would help, and I've heard it's particularly awful with corona around. On bang up for 23 and a half hours a day apparently

 

[LansJ70]

If you have a Glock and want to kill yourself, then just kill yourself. All the bollocks around it means it's all talk or you have an air pistol Glock/replica that fires plastic beads. If you want someone else to kill you go point it at Bozo the Clown, but if it is areal Glock then make sure you at least get a few rounds off at him. Please.

 

[Cant go back]

I haven't done the research so I'm sure I'm talking out of my ass. But I would think a gun to the head would be one of THE MOST reliable methods out there.
I've read the posts about aiming for the brain stem but come on, Budd Dwyer shot himself through the mouth out the top of his head nowhere near the brainstem and he looked dead to me.
Even if you were to screw it up I think the blood loss would do it. If there is a more reliable method, please enlighten me.

I have no input or opinion on having the police do it or public attention but suicide by gunshot to the head has the lowest survival rate bar none. Ive worked many suicide / gunshot scenes and if the head was the target, none, and i mean none survived. They were all gone before we arrived.

Gun posession in the UK is 5 years?

 

[Thisgirlwantstosleep]

Gun posession in the UK is 5 years?

Yep, it's the minum, mandatory sentence. Although because the prison system is fucked and we don't actually have enough spaces in our prisons most people only do half their sentence so 2.5 years.

I know of this girl who stored a gun and some ammofor her boyfriend in her garden shed. Ended up getting caught and got an automatic 5 years even though she was just storing it.

And some prosecutors are fucked up and will try to get you to go down for more serious charges like conspiracy to murder or something like that, even if you were just holding it for someone.

The arguable case is that it could be used to murder others but I think that's only if a gang is involved I think.

A single man in his 40s with no gang involvement is unlikely to be accused of such but he'll still go down for the 5 years. Not to mention he has other charges.

Omg. None of that would fly in the USA. Wow.
