Goodbye thread - Will you?

[Jade10666]

Do you plan to have a goodbye thread? I haven't decided.

If you do, what do you hope to get out of it.

I am not sure if I will

 

[Griever]

I don't know

[SomewhereAlongThe]

I don't think anybody cares that much for me to

 

[bankai]

Most likely not 'cause I'm pretty impulsive. I'll probably just do it and be done with it. Goodbye threads are more for careful planners and contemplators.

 

[FishRain3469]

I'm really not Quite sure..... I actually made one about 2 yrs ago when I was ready to blow my brains out.. But couldn't follow through, damn SI. =/

 

[Namelesa]

I would definitely make one if I was more certain the method I was using is more effective and would work. Currently anything I use won't really at all work so when I done recent attempts I just post a comment on my profile so I don't use up space in the forums if I were to make a goodbye thread every time I attempted. I would mostly do it out of letting others know I may be gone, especially as I am a somewhat active member here but also to get one last bit of attention and comfort before I die.

 

[Forveleth]

I tend to be the informative type, so yeah. I would make one just to let people know I will not be around anymore. I probably will not check it after I make it so I am not looking to get anything out of it.

 

[cemeteryismyhome]

Probably not, but maybe to say thanks. But mine will be impulse and unplanned most likely.

 

[catfriend]

i plan to, if only so i can share my SN protocol -- and my presumed 'success' with said protocol, the longer i remain offline after posting. :)

i feel a sense of responsibility in contributing to the information on this forum, regarding my chosen method. the postings of others helped me to make an informed decision; i want to pay that forward!

 

[Somewhere]

i think i will. everything is planned. 17 days left. although i dont think there'll be any response to it.

 

[PrismHon]

Yes I think I will, because I have SN, but have been unable to get any antiemetics. What I intend to do is post something along the lines of "Goodbye, I only have SN, if this fails I will post in here within 24 hours letting you know. If I don't, then it worked".

Seems a lot of people here (including me) are in the "I can't get antiemetics, will just SN work?" boat. So I guess I want to help by confirming, one more case added to the pile that people can point to, "Yes just SN is possible, PrismHon did it last month!"

 

[polarcrow_]

Most likely yes, if the time comes and it feels right. I want to be able to say goodbye to people but obviously can't say that to people IRL without being hospitalised so it'd be the next best thing. I'm not the most social person, but I really want to be able to say goodbye

 

[ringo99]

Most likely, yeah. I don't plan to leave a physical note behind. So my goodbye thread here will be my last message alive. At least people here will understand what I went through.

 

[Jade10666]

I will too

 

[LostLily]

If ever manage to ctb, I will make sure to say goodbye beforehand

 

[Promised Heaven]

I'm very impulsive. But if I do know with 100% certainty I will go, I'll say something. Probably not a thread but a profile post.

I want my death in particular to cause change in real life, so I'll mostly be putting my focus on my IRL note and upload that here on SaSu and tape the actual note to my body. I doubt it'll change anything, but I want more awareness in sexual abuse, particularly for young children, and sharing my story of abuse in mental healthcare (suicidal due to repeated sexual abuse) and get at least one person, one professional, to read it and use it to emphasize and listen to those who are currently in treatment because I do think therapy is helpful, but the abuse I've gotten there and the downplay when I talk about it is a core reason I want to CTB.

I'm definitely a careful planner, and I'm probably carefully going to plan to not leave a goodbye thread. A carefully planned quiet goodbye.

 

[Sunderland]

I will, there's been a few people on here that I've interacted with, albeit brief, but I'd like to share a goodbye with those that've helped in the meantime

 

[3FailedAttemptss]

I'm too impulsive, I don't think I can.

 

[StupidCat]

I don't think I would. I'm too uncomfortable putting things on the internet already. Leaving a death thread is beyond my scope. At most I will leave a note in my laptop for some family member to find it.

 

[AnimusLapsus]

Unlikely. Unless I am emboldened with artistic inspiration in the spur of the moment, the knell of death will be left unrung. Deliverance will be exacted in silence, and my memory will dissolve from mind and tongue with the rising sun—a life cycle complete, commemorated with a sunset no more colorful that the day prior. Unsung heroes and revered villains are analogous in the eyes of mortality, for death is just as much a part of life as life is to itself. Certainty is a falsity forgotten by the dead, remembrance a "truth" only certain in the living.

 

[The Unanswered Q]

Probably won't, don't think anybody will care.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

Idk if I could handle my own live GBT.

I think a scheduled GBT would be the way to go for me.

I also wouldn't want to leave silently.

 

[Forever Sleep]

More likely a delayed one.

I always wanted to have one. I liked the idea of being supported at that time. Not feeling quite so alone- I'm sure I'll be afraid. Still, what can anyone actually say? They're all pretty much the same: 'I hope you find peace'. It's gotten to the point where I don't tend to comment on them because, I just don't know what else to say and it looks so low effort. Anything more and, it might look dodgy. With the heightened scrutiny of the forum, how do you really wish someone well without appearing to encourage a suicide? So, I've sort of made the decision to not comment so much now on them and to save people the risk of commenting on my (potential) live goodbye.

Other reasons are that I want no possibility of being prevented from doing it. I just think notifying the internet you are about to commit does carry some risk.

Plus, you occassionally get a do-gooder pro-lifer on them trying to 'save' someone. Having to try and justify myself to someone when I would likely be freaking out about the actual process would really piss me off. Generally, other people lynch them before the OP has to get involved but, I don't want agro and debate right before I do something scary.

I do like the idea of some form of goodbye though. I've felt more sad myself when familiar members here have just disappeared. You're always left wondering. Not that I expect people to expect it but, I've always felt so grateful to this community. It's helped me so much. It seems right to leave some sort of goodbye and final thanks. I expect it will be hard working up to it and doing it without support to be honest but, I suspect I'll try.

 

[JesiBel]

I'm not sure.. Maybe I'll just leave a message on my profile. I'm not good at expressing myself.

 

[EmptyBottle]

I don't think I'll CTB/TTF (take the flight, credit to @vercabow for the new term), if I did I hope to leave a thread vs not giving closure.

 

[Mooncry]

If I do, it'll be solely to say a final thank you to this community and for people who care about me here to have closure. (I say that as if I even matter that much but whatever lol.) I feel like it's a nice way to close the door if you've been here for a decent amount of time.

 

[moonflow3r]

who cares really, im just a number we are all numbers its a numbers game. one less wont make any difference

 

[TheUnkown]

I don't know, im thinking yes but at the same time no
