Hey, I've been thinking a lot about who I am and what I want. And I've realized that I don't want anything but to be with a few specific people. I live in the past, and my present is filled with ocd and hopelessness.

nobody in my life wants me around I'm completely alone. So, I'm going to ctb. I'm thinking this Saturday would be best.

im just trying to find out if there are any methods that are 100% sure to take my life. I don't wanna wake up and find I'm still alive.

if there are any methods that ensure death please let me know.

As a rule, sodium nitrite and Nembutal are the most popular, reliable methods here. Both have their drawbacks- Nembutal is expensive (upwards of $750 US) and can only be reliably gotten on the Dark Web; SN is banned in some countries - but they are typically regarded as the most comfortable methods. Sodium Nitrite can be ordered from Amazon if you are American, but acquiring Nembutal (the least painful method known) can take several weeks.

Inventing new ways of killing living things is a field where man excels. You are seeking effective methods that will kill you, so here are a few ones:
  • A shotgun blast to the head. Close to 100%.
  • A cyanide pill. Close to 100% as well.
  • Jumping head first from the Eiffel tower. I think nobody survived this.
There are many others I think.

Unfortunately, no. There are methods that are better than others in terms of guaranteed death. But the scary part is that the more likely a method causes death, the worse the outcome for the few that survives.

I believe shotgun to the head is one of the most guaranteed ones, but still only like 99% achieves death. And that is NOT something you want to survive. In the past, when I wanted to stop suicidal ideation, I went on liveleak to watch pics and videos on botched suicides. I will never ever shoot myself or jump in front of a train, no matter how much I want to die, after seeing survivors.

I think jumping, if done from sufficient height and a good location, could be one of the safer ways. Especially if you have access to the top of a skyscraper. Not many tall buildings where I live, so would have to jump from a cliff, but I am terrified of hitting trees and ledges to soften my fall, and I'll end up paralyzed rather than dead.

There are many highly effective methods in the resources thread. However you have to do the research. Ctbing is a significant decision. You have to decide what works best for you

No method is 100%. One of the problems is that we as humans make mistakes. If you're taking something, you might not get the dosage or regimine correct. If you're jumping you might not go high enough, or you might land on softer ground unintentionally. If you're shooting, you might aim in the wrong place.

As other users have said N and SN are the most reliable in most people's opinions on here, and also offer the benefit of being very safe in terms of long term effects in terms of if you survive.
Nobody, in the entire history of humanity, had survived more than one day in a noose, or underwater, so hanging and drowning are 100% deadly.
The issue is though that with hanging you might survive, or the rope or whatever you're hanging from breaks somehow. And with drowning you might be found or somehow get out - so it's impossible to know that a hanging or drowning will be deadly. Correct preparation goes a long way, but won't ever make it a certainty.

Like others say I don't think there are any 100% certain methods, always freak chance of survival or doing something wrong, but shotgun to the head done right (and man, apparently so many ways ppl do that wrong all the time), jumping from well over 15 stories and landing on your head on a hard surface, and a proper dose of cyanide, are as close to certain as it gets, and even then, well... still not absolutely certain, and failing is really really bad in those cases. I dont like the thought of jumping or firearms, both extremely messy and traumatic for whoever has to deal with the aftermath, but oh how I wish I could get my hands on cyanide. Supposedly also pretty painful but well, it's over quickly and there's almost no chance of survival... was watching a video where a former cia chief described someone biting a cn capsule and being dead before they hit the ground and idk how accurate that is but man it sounds nice if that's really how it goes.

No method is 100% ... Although N , cyanide etc. Are near 100 % certain. But the greater challenge is overcoming SI ..

Your best bet, if you live in the US, is to get a high-enough caliber handgun and know where to shoot.

Considering SN has shown more than one failed attempt I don't think it falls under 100% success.
I would think hanging from a height. Gun to head. Or train with your head on track.

Check, that rope holds your weight. Carry a backpack with rocks, as you walk into the water. Impossible to survive.

Only thing deterring me from shotgun method is if you fail you are absolutely fucked and worse off than before. My understanding is SN you can make a full recovery if someone finds you or something goes wrong so that's what I'm leaning towards now.

Like others have said - no suicide method is 100%.

Hell, you could put a shotgun to your head, and aliens might abduct you before you get a chance to pull the trigger. The chances of aliens randomly abducting you is 0.000001%. But there's still a chance.

I am going to ctb this Saturday as well, I'm targetting Partial Hanging. If done right, it's very peaceful.. You should go through the hanging megathread. You'll get a lot of clarity there.

Related to above discussion, has anyone ranked methods based on the likelihood of a failed attempt which leads to serious permanent damage? I'd consider that the most important factor. The worst case scenario would be ending up paralyzed below the neck unable to attempt again. Or severe brain damage with similar results. Potentially decades of hell and the way out shut. Avoiding that should be the first priority.

You won't, if you get enough oxygen to survive.
It's to bad the PPH. The book who started SN doesn't state the effects of survival. They only have the rating system.

If someone finds you in either of these scenarios this is irrelevant. And with the backpack it might come lose. Agree that it is unlikely but not 100%.
You can get brain damage from SN, because it kills you by oxygen starvation.
There are 0 reported cases of this, and there are plenty of instances where people were found after being very nearly dead and had no long lasting damage whatsoever. People have had 90% methemoglobin levels and survived following treatment. It seems clear that oxygen deprivation to the other parts of the body kills before oxygen deprivation to the brain can occur.

@all_pointless was breathing several times per minute, do you think he would be fine, if he survived?
Yes because literally everyone else in all of the case studies on here and medical journals have been.

I get what you're saying, but human error still plays a factor as always. You might get stuff which isn't pure enough, or mess up the dose. Not sure also if vomiting straight away might play a factor? I havent seen enough case studies, but I would assume that vomiting can mess up an attempt of anything considering it then means you potentially ingest less of the drug.

There are people, who fainted, and then recovered, if they would take a little more SN, then they would survive, but with brain damage, the brain stem is the last one to die, during the oxygen starvation.

@all_pointless was breathing several times per minute, do you think he would be fine, if he survived?

Assuming you are found in time. If you aren't found in a certain period of time you will die.

I find the Lostallhope website to be very informative in regards to success rate and potential harm of the common methods. Not sure if it is exactly what you are looking for though.

My biggest fear is also something like paralysis happening. Then you are stuck until you can achieve natural death, which could be decades away, and you'll be in a much worse state than the original. Or god forbid, Locked-in syndrome. That is my absolute worst nightmare.

You will survive on your own, if you get the right amount of SN, just a little above deadly dose. However, if nobody checks on you, then obviously you will die from dehydration.

How would it be considered a deadly dose if it doesn't kill you? Lol
