I haven't seen many people talk about it, even though I am pretty sure it's literally a instantaneous way of doing it

I remember when I was 13, durning 14 that day, I sticked a tweezers endings inside both ends of an electrical socket to see if I could ctb, but it only left me with numbness and feeling sizzling inside my left arm, that to this day I feel it when I am stressed enough

I thought about shocking myself using the power generator of a neighboring building, they have it protected by a single door, it shouldn't be too hard to access it

It's takes a lot of volts, and amps to fry a person as per the electric chair. 100s of volts, and two to three jolts. Even as regular people accidentally die from electrocution all the time. Maybe that has something to do with it. Basically burning the slow way?

That would be a horrible way to go. There's a reason why the electric chair was abandoned as cruel and unusual punishment.

The electric chair delivers electricity through the head and legs, but I though about using only my arms to deliver the shock through my heart

Domestic electricity voltage is such that even if you tightly hold live in one hand and neutral in the other, the current that runs through your heart (which is the best way to do it) is absolutely exactly at the safe maximum of about 15 milliamps. And I have to tell you, firstly death is not instantaneous unless you have hundreds of thousands of volts across you and 2. Death by electrocution is an awful awful way to go. Unless you can get hundreds of thousands of volts across your heart, with low resistance contact, such that you are basically blown into pieces, there is no such thing as a good way to go by electrocution. And doing that would require a special setup. If you just go to touch two HV terminals your arms and fingers would be burned off through arcing before you make a conductive path. So this method is a non method unless you feel like you deserve minutes of suffering like the worst criminals in an electric chair, and/or want to try life without hands. Zero stars, would not recommend.

Chances are with a domestic voltage you'll just give yourself a heart murmur or other side effects which could be painful and/or permanent. If you do go and try this method, and then most likely survive, I strongly recommend you go to a doctor

I will be honest… sometimes my self hatred goes so deep that I think that I genuinely deserve an extremely bloody and painful death, though I really don't want to go into the details of my psyche
I also remember wanting to die by lightning, but I don't thinks it's practical at all

Yeah dying by lightning could work, tho people have survived being hit by lightning so yeah, probably not a good way to go.

I'm pretty sure if you deserved it you wouldn't be saying you deserved it. People struggling with self hatred aren't usually the people that do bad things that deserve punishment let alone extreme punishment.

Doing positive things might help you realise you're a good person. Put a bowl of water out for wildlife. Do some volunteering with goodgym. Phone your parents daily asking them how they're doing, and be a good listener...

I'm no expert but the body has some resistance so you might not die instantly. Also, like someone said, electricity generates heat. You might end up hurting your limbs trying to target your heart.

I wish it were that easy cause I would have tried this, but this method is rare.

Electricity is terribly unpredictable. A few milliamps over a sustained time can kill. 10 amps is much higher chance of bad things.

A coworker created a circuit across his heart because he had one hand on a metal workbench and then touched an equipment piece that had a fault.
He stood there for maybe 8 seconds getting 440v across his chest - fully conscious the whole time but unable to let go - until the 40 Amp breaker tripped.

All he had was burns to his palms. And I didn't work with him much longer so don't know if he had lasting damage.

But hanging out with him in the ER and hearing his experience... no thanks not for me.
