Hello. I'm sorry to see you too are in pain.

I recommend making notes for your friends and perhaps a video(s). If you do this, you want to make sure that you're really clear about everything you intend to convey to them.

I'd recommend letting them know in some detail why you've come to this point. Make sure they know it's not their fault at all whatsoever(they could blame themselves for not helping you or for not seeing how bad you truly feel). Tell them how much you care about them and that you're thankful for having them in your life. ....Of course, anything you say needs to come from your heart.


I assume you've already tried seeking help or talking with your parents or friends? Please don't rush into anything. I know you're on this website because you are serious. But it's best not to rush or ignore your doubt.(should you have any)


If you do attempt, I sure hope that you find peace and happiness, and that everything goes as well as possible.

If you say goodbye in person, they're not going to understand. It will blow up in your face. I'd recommend using the site search but I can't even think of any search terms right now. There are sooooo many examples of how people regret trying to say goodbye, prepare others, explain their perspective or stance, etc. Others who aren't consciously pro-choice tend to freak out, try to get you to get help, call emergency services, stop being your friend or do the opposite and start hovering, be pro-lifey, and just basically not understand. Then afterward you'll be posting a new thread about what a shit show it was, how much you regret saying anything, etc.

Spoken by a former pro-lifey person who became pro-choicey, eventually joined this site and, after 2 1/2 very active months, has seen pretty much every subject cycle through multiple times. This is a common subject with consistent regrets and woes.

TL;DR

Save it for the goodbye letters. If you need to vent and get support, post here. If you need to cry about how you want to say goodbye in person, post here.

You can search Suicide Notes on here but it will bring up pages you will have to look through. Someone did have a really good one posted on here but I can't remember who it was anymore. It was probably more specific to them but it would have been a good one to read.
Reddit used to have a Suicide Notes forum but when I tried to access it, it had been banned. I wasn't on it for a long time but there were good ones there.
It's a shame that we can't have things that actually help people.
