Any other stabbers here?

[Uzera]

So the method I've been dwelling on for awhile now has been stabbing myself in the stomach area. Lostallhope lists stab to abdomen with a whopping 12.5% success rate and a 252 minute window for death. Ok heres my thing, I don't have to access to a gun. I don't have access to SN or anything and I'm not big on the idea for reasons I will list below. I don't want to hang because I don't want to get found. I always weigh the consequences of a failed attempt(Also statistics say there's a good chance I will fail), which I was I don't condone things like suicide by cop or anything that will leave massive consequences if you survive. Same thing with hanging or gunshot. The last thing I need to put a gun in my mouth and then wake up in the hospital.

This is the way I look at it, Yeah stabbing doesn't have a great chance of death but my thoughts are like if I stab my self multiple times, won't that speed up the process? I've thought alot about it and I think i could probably get around 3-6 stabs in before my mind reacts/the pain gets to me. I think i can override that shit long enough to get a few good wounds in. In the spot i'm thinking about doing it noone will find me for at least 12+ hours so I don't have to worry about being found. Technically I could hang myself it's just not a chance i'm willing to take considering the consequences of a botched hanging.

The thing that's been blocking me is not the fear of the stabbing it's the SI thing. That's part of the reason why I haven't really considered SN. Even if i get it taking that final into death plunge is what's stopping me, not the pain (I see that on here a lot where people have the SN but are scared to take it).

Any thoughts? Anyone else thinking along these lines? I just want this fucking shit to be over man. I've gave life another shot, more than once. I don't think I can do this shit anymore I just can't.

Well, to be honest, I'm really scared of this method but I tried it once.
I got a big cook knife and put it softly on my belly. The only left thing to do was PUSH and I would probably have died instantly!
Still, I couldn't do it. My body just got frozen.

 

[Futile]

I was thinking about that too but I think going for the throat is much better. Stomach seems too random for my likes, lots of ways to screw up

If one is thin enough it's quite easy to feel the major artery in the abdomen. This would be really painful, slow, and take some major balls. That's a nope for me.

I have a very romanticized notion of going out "oh happy dagger" style, but realistically I don't think I could manage it. I'd probably also just fuck up and hit myself in the ribs instead.

SI is going to be a problem no matter what method you choose. I get the idea of going berserker mode and stabbing yourself a bunch of times (and it also sounds kind of badass), but it's impossible to say whether it would be easier to overcome SI by doing it that way compared to taking SN.

Also, not being afraid of pain is one thing, but actually being in pain for 252 minutes (that's 4 hours!) seems like something you might regret while it's happening. Not that it matters once you're dead, but 4 hours just seems like a long time to wait to die, especially if you're in pain or bleeding everywhere and can't do anything to keep you occupied. Plus, if there's only a 12.5% success rate, you're very likely to end up going through hours of agony for no reason.

At the very least I'd be concerned about being bored the whole time XD Though I guess you could joke in your note or goodbye thread (if you leave one) that you died of boredom, which would be kind of hilarious. I'd love to go out with a joke, but I'm not sure that's enough to make the method worthwhile or if that's remotely a priority for you.

Also, if you stab yourself in your actual stomach, it could allow any stomach acid present to come in contact with other parts of your body. That's probably even more painful than the stabbing on its own. I guess taking a lot of antacids might help with that but if it were me I wouldn't want to take the chance.

If you really wanted to go with this method you could first try stabbing yourself with something small like a craft knife in a non-vital part of your body, maybe your thigh. It'd be a comparatively safe way of testing it out and seeing if you're actually capable of stabbing yourself. Going by what I've read in the forums it seems like trying out your chosen method/practicing before doing it for real is an important step. Just make sure you know that the spot you're stabbing isn't near a major artery, otherwise your bus will be showing up early.

(I am so sorry that this is so long, it just kind of happened.)

 

[Nymph]

i could never stab myself, im scared of pain lol

 

[KolK]

I did think about this before; I have a fascination about vampires, so I would stab at my heart instead, you know, kinda like driving a stake through my heart like in vampire shows.

 

[BluesRunTheGame]

Stabbing HURTS. I'd find something like jumping easier cos at least you'd just relinquish control that one time. With stabbing you've probably gotta keep it up, and it's all on you and the body of you fighting against you, with its pain practically begging you to stop. Almost impossible I would say. Well, at least for me.

Femoral artery in the upper leg would be easier and quicker, and possibly less painless. But I also don't like pain, so I would never do this.

Yeah I was probably generalising. And drink and drugs would certainly help. But no i couldn't do it either.

Urgh. I meant less painful, not less painless.

 

[AutoTap]

This would be a terrible way to go. It would be hours of excruciating pain.

Also unless you stab the right area you will die of blood loss instead which takes even longer and has other side effects which suck...

Not to mention if you fail your stomach will be messed up along with other organs possibly.

If you don't care about the pain or scary factor/gruesome. There are so many better ways.

Also there are better areas to stab I believe.

Same here!

Not a great chance of success, very slow and painful and leaves you with awkward injuries if you fail. With such a method it is really go big or go home; if you can't be 99% confident in your ability to do a LOT of damage to yourself without giving in from pain then I wouldn't even entertain the idea.

 

[Anonymoussn]

You've mentioned 12.5% success rate as 'whopping'. That's 1 in 8. Perhaps you just meant it's a lot higher than you were expecting. But a 7 in 8 chance of failure is not something I would consider good odds. Remember what is at stake here. If you end up in hospital (which with those odds, you probably will), you could end up with long lasting damage, you could end up on a psych ward, or in tremendous pain.

You mention SI as being a concern. I think most will agree that your SI will be much more likely to kick in as a result of a stab wound to the abdomen than it would from consuming SN. I think that in all likelihood, you'd probably be hard pressed to find many other ways out there that would cause your SI to kick in more than via a stab wound. I think you're underestimating how painful a stab wound would be, let alone potentially having to do that multiple times.

 

[wanttodie]

me to been thanking stabbing myself in the stomach or the heart area. so id bleed out and die

 

[AlreadyGone]

Stabbing hurts. I doubt if you stabbed yourself once, you are doing it again.

You must have major guts (pun half intended) if you're actually going to do that. Personally, I wouldn't do it. I don't like pain, and the site of excessive blood doesn't sit well with me. And even if pain weren't a factor, I'd go for the carotid artery in the neck.

Like a few others have said, 12.5 percent isn't much, and surviving a stab like that can potentially lead to complications.

Contrary to what you've said, there are tons of better methods that are superior to stabbing and are available. The thing is, you have to be resourceful. And one is not even included in the list, but there are certain plant poisons that have a higher certainty of killing than 28 STAB WOUNDS.

That 9 year old girl that was "sacrificed" to slenderman by her 2 "friends" survived something like 38 stab wounds.

 

[ClairyFairy]

Nope, terrible idea . You'd have to fall on your sword or run into something with it. It's pretty scary option

Would you mind telling me more about these plant poisons?

I managed to get a knife into my thigh a bit but it coagulated and I had a clean blade so it just healed on it's own, lost maybe just 2 or 3 dl of blood. Definitely jumping when I get serious about ctb.

Yews and cerbera odollam (as a cocktail).

I managed to perfect the latter in extracting the compounds. The yews are going to be tricky however.
