Discussion Would you like company to ctb?

[unijow]

Sometimes I wish I didn't had to go alone, and I don't mean having loved ones around, I mean unknown people. Just the background noise and that sensation of being just another anonymous on the crowd. It's not exactly a fear, but I would like to do it with someone around.

 

[FuneralCry]

No, I would like to die alone, far away from any people.

Including other people in the scene may be problematic - their behavior and attitude are variables that cannot be accurately assessed and may create a more turbulent situation than it needs to be. It's already difficult dealing with SI when considering the probability of success, but for the aforementioned reason I definitely have qualms about involving another individual in the whole mess.

I didn't made myself clear, I won't do it with other people around. I enjoy being alone, I always prefer being on my own and I want the privacy of leaving alone. It's just another one of my contractions.

 

[DivineMedicus]

Oh I see, but even then I would rather not include myself in a social setting (i.e. crowds, even in anonymity; among loved ones; with a partner; etc.). I need a quiet space free from any distraction if I would like to successfully CTB, and I would much rather not have anyone deal with the cleanup afterwards. Much better to go to the woods and become coyote feed.

 

[Harasaki]

I don't like to be near people in general so I think I would like privacy to die in peace without the presence of other distressing me

 

[StarryStarry]

Yes, I would really appreciate someone to talk to. I've lived my life so lonely it would be nice that someone took their time to spend with me in my last moments. and I wouldn't be lonely.

 

[BitterlyAlive_]

Nah. Even when I was younger, before I was certain I would die by suicide, I knew I wanted to die alone. I don't want people around. Now that I know I'm going to kill myself, it's especially true. I couldn't put someone in that position.

that's true. there are some people that regret their decision in the last moment and then call an ambulance. there are others who may make other types of mistake.

unfortunately having a partner can unpredictably increase your chance of being discovered and saved during the proccess.

with that said, though, I can understand where the thread author is coming from. many of us have been lonely for so long, it could be psychologically positive to be with company in the last moments.

Personally - on my last day - I would like some nice music in the background, have a nice whiskey and a cigar. Maybe read a nice book for a bit.

And then swig my N and just go to sleep.

I definitely would not like anyone around. The last thing on my mind would be inane conversation. I want my last day to be perfect, calm and serene.

 

[DunnoWhyButYeah]

Yes. I wouldn't want to die alone, it's more likely to be able to be calm with someone than alone. However, I know I will be alone.
