[actual_fox]

It is sensitive question to ask and you can answer in pm, If you wish to.

Well I need to ask; what would make It easier for you to accept the death?

 

[Challu]

I'll be the first.

My father was found hanged. They said he didn't hang himself because the chair is standing perfectly beside him. And his tounge is still inside his mouth.
Before they found him hanged, he had a trouble with his boss and they had argument.
One of his coworker was found by my mom hiding and looking from far during the funeral. That coworker said he is afraid that's why he is hiding.
I want to believe he didn't hanged himself but the bigger part of me believe he did it himself.

I'll be the first.

Me too. This is why I ask.

How my mother coped with it? She didn't for the longest time. She was 6 months pregnant with me. She locked herself in a room with the coffin of my father for two days. She never accepted that my father did it himself and just blame his boss.
But if ever I ctb, I will be the first one that will do it without any questions.

No one in my family has successfully committed suicide, but many have threatened/dealt with those thoughts. As a teenager my brother was struggling with a lot of stuff. My parents found out he was gay and he was using drugs and things like that. He ran away from home and was threatening to kill himself if people came looking. I was only around 10 at the time but I distinctly remember it. My mom has repeatedly threatened to commit suicide when she goes off her meds. She is much more stable now and hasn't said that in years, but I guess it was a common occurrence when I was a kid. My dad regularly talks about how he'll kill himself if bad things happen, usually they revolve around if he gets as fat as his parents are (They are very obese). I don't think he really means it in the way my mom and brother did. I think its some weird ploy to try and get people to give him sympathy. I've wondered a lot recently if having all these experiences with people being suicidal when I was young partly contributed to me thinking about it so much. I had a few friends as well who also threatened and attempted a few times. Suicide never seemed that abnormal or crazy to me and I think that's part of the reason my mind has slipped into thinking about it all the time now that I am an adult.

I had a cousin-by-marriage ctb successfully doing partial. Only one I know of.

My uncle hanged himself. I envy him although I don't want to go by that method.

 

[LittleBlackCat]

My uncle also hanged himself. Before I was born so I didn't get chance to meet him.

 

[Ligottian]

Three that I know of. Two before I was born, one when I was a child. I never knew the latter (mother's cousin).

I have known cases of CTB very close to me but from my own family.

 

[HermitLonerGuy]

My Sister Committed Suicide With A Drug Overdose.

She did it over her fiance dumped her for another woman.

 

[Al_stargate]

No, nobody killed himself that I know of in my personal life. I'll be the first in my large family, can't believe this shit. Never imagined it in a million years.

 

[spixs_macaw]

Not in my family (I was the first trying and obviously failed) but my very best friend died by suicide in February this year. She found SS through The NY Times article published last year in December. I admire her for taking this final decision and even more that she succeeded. I miss her every day and have now decided to follow her.

 

[Personality Zero]

A cousin drowned himself in a river. I didn't really know him. I do envy him though. I think I'm genetically predisposed to follow in his footsteps

 

[deathissosad]

No, nobody killed himself that I know of in my personal life. I'll be the first in my large family, can't believe this shit. Never imagined it in a million years.

My step dad shot himself on a monday morning at about 5 am when I was about 15, there was very little indication ahead of time that this might happen, and no details left behind.

My huge guilt is that I was asked to go to the range that weekend, but was too meek to ask my Dad for permission, so said I didn't get permission. I know that this is one "incident" in a vast web of circumstances that lead to a suicide, but still, I wasn't even able to go to a funeral and didn't receive mental health help so I've clung onto it.

To "Accept it Better" would probably require more information to be revealed, but it's possible he felt a need to keep it all suppressed, or I'm not being told everything. I think the primary tragedy with a lot of these things is that people are afraid to express their suffering to others for fear of maltreatment which results in being pushed towards other solutions.

 

[WorthlessTrash]

No not that i know of. But i'll be the first. However, I sometimes worry it will cause a domino effect resulting in other members of my family CTBing as well. This really sucks.

 

[Banshee]

I'll be the first and last because I'll be the one to end my blood line.

My little sister took her life when she was 27. It ruined and change me. I have problems coping with all my emotions since this happened about 12 years ago. The changes in me is part of why my life really is going to hell, why I'm a single father now, and why I'm such a bad father and co-worker.
Nothing she could have done to make it easier. It's our choice, but people will be affected in ways we don't wan't, no matter what.
I don't blame my sister, I want to follow her even though I have children, but I will never be the same again nor will I be able to coupe with theese feelings.
