Are you going to write a goodbye letter?

[Candleburn]

I havent made up my mind yet. It feels like I need to apologize to my close once. But it feels so hard to write a letter.

 

[strangelife]

I did it already, but still working on some corrections

 

[Darkover]

no, it would only contain all the things my family did wrong to me like giving me weed at age 12 or never taking me to the dentist, or how i got a scare on my face from being beaten with a wooden pole, or letting me skip school from age 12 or getting me into trouble with the police for robbing things from my family, neglected and abused my life been shit here because of these shitty parents coming from a broken home

 

[INTJme]

I plan on creating a video instead for the general suicide note. Would also be sending a couple of people scheduled emails.
I won't be apologising though. However, I would be explaining why I chose to take the step I am going to. It won't be emotional, rather logical.

I don't think at this point if I did I'd need an explanation. My friends and family would never question why. They all know how unlucky I've been and how badly screwed over I got and how hellish life has been for me, with it not improving no matter what I do and what efforts I've made. Though I'm sure they would be incredibly sad. I didn't even ask for sympathy but everyone who isn't a sociopath or fair weather friend has been incredibly sad over what's happened to me the last several months, and very disturbed how I warned of this future many years ago, but almost everyone said I was being a pessimist or paranoid. They say absolutely no retorts now. It's incredibly scary the % of my friends, all do-well successful people, that have had CTB thoughts or have resorted to substances the last recent timeline. I have friends who are planning to run into the wild and without any trace or explanation where they are, because they're so sad and disgusted with everything that has happened, and these are grown men.

Yes, and no.

I wouldn't really call it a "letter" because I'm already 8 pages in and I'm not even close to the end yet.

 

[jellie]

i have written a preliminary letter that i will probably edit as my death comes closer. maybe make personalized ones for my close friends/family. i think i would like to get one from a loved one if they chose to CTB so i want to make them.

 

[bipbapbop]

I've had a pretty strong stance against writing a letter but more recently I thought maybe I should write something so that no one would feel guilty when I CTB. so maybe just something short about how this was no one's fault. Idk I've been wronged but I feel a tremendous amount of love for the people in my life and I would never want them to live with that burden of thinking I did this because of their actions even if it is true.

I highly recommend to write a Living Will ("Patientenverfügung"), its a simple document that spells out medical treatments you would and would not want to be used to keep you alive. Basically its like you saying "turn off the machines in case i got hospitalized in a coma".

I would, it would be great to give your loved ones closure, so they don't blame themselves for not noticing it or thinking they caused it.

I'd leave a video on my phone/computer for different people. My family, my best friend, my significant other (if I have one at the time), and my friends that became family. Of course, I'd only have one person I let unlock my computer. I'd text her the passcode to get in and tell her to clear out some things before anyone else could see it.

 

[Hunter2005]

No

 

[Xta4Love]

Im going to write several letters to family and close friends. It is the least I can do

 

[Kit1]

I have written an account of my life story. Also wrote a letter to the coroner, local MP and a couple of contacts who work within the mainstream media - has copies of my medical notes as well. Hoping lessons will be learnt and someone else l's death can be prevented (though sadly I don't think.NHS will ever learn).

I've also written to the coroner. What did you say in your letter to him/her?

 

[Kit1]

I've also written to the coroner. What did you say in your letter to him/her?

I have fairly up to date medical records and the coroner will have to request the rest from the GP and the CMHT. The notes are clearly indicative of the times I reached out for support, for the failures of the NHS the point at which I had to stop using the GP's surgery as they introduced a new system to get in touch and I told them repeatedly that this does not.meet accessibility needs due to my disabilities, CMHT lost file, found file and then messed up. Series of failures that basically ends in no one showing up to care especially knowing that I am suicidal. My ending has noted the mistakes made, hownthese could have been avoided and what could have prevented my death - especially as I had communicated this to the NHS anyway. I have placed the blame on the NHS and ended the letter. I really hope that there wouldn't be another set of children who loses their mum due to lack of care or any death due to lack of care.

What did you write?

I have asked the coroner to write to the Medicine and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) to propose shifting a nasal spray
(xylometazoline) to prescription-only status. Unfortunately, I became addicted to this over-the-counter medicine and have damaged my nose (breathing problems) and penis (erectile dysfunction) by using it. If it was prescription-only people couldn't get addicted to it.

I doubt the coroner will listen, but at least I feel
I've done my bit to avoid someone else making my mistake. It goes without saying, that the health problems caused by this drug are the reason I want to die.

 

[coqui]

I just have a piece of paper with "NO ONE'S FAULT" in big letters. The less of a scene I make, the better imo, not that my departure could be completely uneventful

 

[alrdyded]

I might just say that I am sorry. No long note

 

[Aloneandinpain]

No

Any time I test - for partial, usually - I write a goodbye note. I do that because I know how you may intend to test, but you can end up killing yourself. I usually write I am sorry and don't blame myself. It usually makes me shake because it is so real. But in the end, I probably wont write one when I make a series attempt. - Curious

I already have a DNR and living will, but I recently added a letter. I don't plan on having any close family if the time comes, so except for a few directives, I do not plan on writing a note.

 

[RationalGaze]

I don't really know yet. Trying to decide whether they'd think it's bs or not
