If any of us really knew the answer to that, this forum might very well be empty.

I think you have to wait until you are truly ready. I have had moment where I think I could have gone through with it, these moments always bring me peace.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to summon these moments. I got some very bad news yesterday (my economy will crash and burn at some point in the near future), would have thought that would bring "The moment" back, but it didn't. Expecting that it will return when shit actually starts hitting the fan, and then I will be ready to act.

Survival instinct being the controlling factor suggests something is holding you back be it conscious or subconscious. When we are truly ready we are ready.

You can only push and wait. SI is strong and won't go away easily.

Benzos and alcohol help reduce SI, but a lot of people don't want to go out blasted.

What about putting a noose around your neck and then making yourself faint, like my hyperventilating and then breathing through a straw?

I, for one, would LOVE to go out shitfaced. Not sure if it would interfere with partial suspension though? You'd definitely have to do the prep work before you party.

Same my friend, I feel like going out shit faced would be way less painful. Not sure how it would affect partial tho.

Me three! Being shitfaced is one of the few things I still enjoy in life, and I want it to be my final feeling.

I was gifted a nice champagne a while back, and ideally, my suicide will involve me sitting somewhere in the woods, peace and quiet, while I slowly fade away drinking champagne as a final toast to this world. Not sure how doable that is yet though.
