Help with overcoming survival instinct?

[fallingasl33p]

My last attempt was to od and was overcome by my survival instinct to an insane degree I had like an earth-shattering panic attack, confessed to everything and then was still in high scale panic and intense nausea for days. Now I'm planning a jump but I just know the SI is gonna go even crazier for that method. I've made a recon trip to the area just to see how I felt and I wasn't afraid being close to the edge or having any vertigo/panic but maybe that's just because I knew deep down in my subconscious I (probably) wasn't going to do it that day. I know the obvious answer is alcohol/benzos but I'd taken just the benzos prior to my last attempt and even that wasn't enough to ward off the primal fear that ensued lmao. Also need to make sure I'm coherent enough to make it clear off the edge or alternatively to make a run for it back to my car if someone tries to stop me or call someone on me I don't know. Is there some kind of drug that's gonna just make me totally fearless instead? That's if I even have time to get hold of somethihg that's street level because I'm kind of on a schedule right now and circumstances are forcing me to do this sooner rather than later

Hi,
yes there are. Its sad to hear how you are feeling, the way something is making you suffer. If listened couple minutes ago to an podcast which told stories about people wo killed themselfes. They described everything. One woman in that episode used alcohol to be able to jump down (she overcame her SI) the tower, she always told she would do. And she succeeded. She took an and to her pain, but aswell to her life and all possible good feelings.
If you manna talk about something, about ya feelings or anything; please be sure that its okay to write.

Wish you peace and an awesome life.

Hello. How are you?

I relate to this a little. I get constant panic just laying in bed and thinking about how many years I've been in the same place doing literally nothing. Guilt, shame, embarrassment. These could be things you are feeling. Has there been something you've ever really wanted to do? Maybe get something out of your system. That's something I'd like to do before dying.
Is there is a drug that could take away fear I'd definitely want that. Fear is hard to deal with, try looking within and asking yourself why you think you have fear. Are you upset you are alone? Are you feeling guilt for something you have never done but always want to?

There is a thread about Scientific Approach to Understanding SI and Discussion on Tools to Minimze SI:

Potent pharmacological suppressors of S.I. are alcohol+benzos, high dose benzos and opioids, due to deep CNS depression, emotional numbing, and disinhibition.

I am very new to this forum. I have not attempted myself. I am only researching. I wanted to reply and say I am sorry for what you are going through.

I've experienced my SI take on a life of its own. But I think there can be a time when the pain is so unbearably strong and all hope is completely...that perhaps the desire to end it all becomes stronger than the instinct. I wish I could just take something and end it all before it came to this though.
