Doing something like ctb on impulse is not a good idea, in my opinion. Preparation is everything in this world and you would want to minimise failure as much as possible. There is a stupid part of my brain that is foolishly clinging onto living - despite suffering from severe mental illness. Hopefully that will dissipate in time. So yeah, plan if you can.

Yeah, I lost my job and some friends. My reputation took a dive and being from a small and very backward community this is a major downside. 7 years later the stigma is still very much alive.
Easier said than done finding another job and making new friends. Shame on your local community for using what happened against you.

Thanks to everyone for sharing their thoughts.

Everyone should have the right to their own destiny, as they see fit. whether your ctb attempt is spontaneous, or carefully planned, you have to do it your way.

Personally I'm planning as carefully as I can. I don't want any mistakes.

Ahhh, fuck em'! At least, by the way they treated me afterwards, I got the chance to see everybody for what they really are. I don't miss anybody that left me because of this and I learned to ignore judgment. There is something perverse in judging a person who tried to take his own life.

That's a gutsy approach you have and it sounds pretty cool.

Absolutely not. If you succeed, there's no going back. This isn't a decision that should be made lightly. That said, I believe an adult has the right to kill themselves for any reason whatsoever provided they don't have a helpless dependent like a small child or disabled person in the picture.

I also feel like a lot of impulsive suicides use bad methods or poor technique that may leave the person attempting permanently damaged or in the hands of authorities or both.

Out of impulse, I wouldn't try, Ctb.
I'd think about it for weeks or months to make it work.

My mom tried to kill herself, now I want to.

my daughter is young enough she probably wouldn't remember and maybe I would stop the intergenerational trauma by doing it.
maybe if my mom had succeeded my life wouldn't have been filled with the family disintegration and torture of myself.

I know I can do better than my parents but I can tell you first hand that i don't remember the first time she tried but the second time, when my father had no one else to blame but me, my childhood went even more to shit.

I think about my daughter... I love her, but on another hand I think it'll help if I weren't here.

I also have a 2000000 dollar insurance policy that has a suicide is okay after 2 years clause in my daughters name.

my point is that in a year, after the two years waiting, it could happen any day. That said, it could happen tomorrow.

sorry if that was a ramble...
