Help Any ideas as to how to avoid your body being found by family?

[areyousafe??]

My plan was to send a delayed message on my phone to authorities/police notifying them of my death, but now I cannot find a contact number or email address for them. They have a phone number but it is a landline.

I want to ctb at home (as opposed to doing it at a hotel) so I cannot leave a note on the door for someone to contact police.

Do you have a local suicide hotline like 988 that is text capable? That might be an option
Or any other security agency (crime tip line etc?)
Just some thoughts...

Leave a sign on the door or under the door so that it doesn't attract so much attention (like peeking out) or in a place where they (family) can see it, telling them to call the police and not to enter the house.

Block the entrance to the house. It will be a shame but they will have to break it to get through but at least that will prevent your family from entering and seeing you. In cases like this, at least here, the police are the ones who carry out the procedure, since it is a sign that something is not right.

That's what I'm going to do.

That's a good idea about the suicide hotline. I have looked into crimestoppers but it seems like you can only call them.

Thank you for this. I will probably block the entrance as my family will disregard any note I leave to not enter. Any ideas on how to block the entrance?

You could attach weights and drown yourself. The body might have time to decompose and you would just be declared missing for awhile.

To block the entrance/door I was thinking of buying some "door stoppers"

Like this one (the design)

Amazon.com

(I have to test if this idea works)

If you have locks on your door you can put them on. Or maybe use a chair to block the door handle..

This video is interesting, it uses a shoelace and a screwdriver:



I have to do more research, for now they are just ideas.

Thank you. I'm going to do more research into this because I definitely need something to block the door.

Definitely look into a lock but add onto that with a bunch of furniture, just to be safe. I'm not sure how sturdy any sort of locks are against someone that really wants to kick down a door, especially if in America where all the doors are just wooden.

Update: I brought a door jammer today. It's just to stop anyone else coming in, I'm sure police will get around it.

Wow, I didn't know about those tools, I'll save the message. Thanks for the info! (:

It's a portable door lock/jammer. I'm not sure whether it is suitable and whether it will work. I'll try it on my door and let you know. Tried attaching an image to this post but it's not working.
