Help How do I ensure my dad doesn’t find me?

[FacePALM]

Alright, the thing is I haven't picked a method yet but I am leaning toward non suspension hanging. I need enough time to ensure I am dead but I don't want my dad to be the one who finds me, how do I contact the police so they come to my house and tell my family I am gone instead of them finding my rotting body?

If you will be alone at your own place, mail a letter to a friend and have them call.

I live with my dad, so sadly not an option. I thought I might sent a delayed email to the police but I don't know how long it takes for them to respond to those.

Do you have enough money ? If so book 1 night at a hostel/hotel , sneak out your home at night , pay the hotel/hostel fee , then call the police before hanging.Simple.

Why do you care about such meaningless stuff? You'll be dead for eternity, meaning once you die, you'll travel into the future infinite amount of years. To put this into perspective, it's impossible to even draw a line of how much significance the timeline is starting from big bang up to this day to represent how long you'll be "asleep". Worries that you have right now are worries for the living entities, not the dead. Besides, out of 7 billion people a couple thousands had exactly the same situation as you had. Your situation is nothing special.

My advice is don't suicide at all, try to find happiness even though it may be hard to do so, but if you're planning on leaving, whoever finds out your body shouldn't be your problem anymore.

I don't think telling me my situation isn't special is helpful. I am already painfully aware that people have it worse or are in the same spot as I am. And I can tell you it doesn't help knowing that.

I care about who finds me because even though I am dead, the people who find me aren't. It's better they hear from someone then find my body, that will be an image they carry with them for the rest of their life and I don't want that to the case. I think you shouldn't shame me because this is in your opinion "meaningless stuff" while in my eyes this is one of the most important aspects of my plan.

Absolutely brilliant.

I fully understand not wanting to traumatize a loved one. I agree with you that it IS important. A delayed email sounds good.

I have same issue and was thinking about doing it in a hotel. However I chose already a method and can't carry the equipment lol. I think I will leave a note saying "sorry dad..."
So if you cannot do it in a hotel or similar, perhaps you might consider leaving a note to your father in your room.

Delayed email or scheduled text

You are acting like an evolutionist. Every animal is "programmed" to protect their hives, children etc. By doing what you think you're supposed to do you're being nothing special, you're only doing what the nature is asking you to do genetically, meaning that your choice isn't really your choice, but you are expected to do what you're willing to do.

I am not saying I am special, I already know I am not. It's just that pointing it out isn't very helpful, because that was not the issue at hand here.

Regardless of why he decides to shield his loved ones, he posted this thread to get some help finding ways to do so. Man just doesn't wanna scar his dad for the rest of his life. How would it make you feel if you were having a great day and you walked in on the dead body of whomever you were closest to. A Lil warning saying don't come in, call the cops is enough to save someone from years of therapy. The majority of people on this forum aren't looking for ways to scar the ones we leave behind. We're looking for ways to end our suffering without putting the pain onto someone else.

This is nonsense. Have you ever heard of FREEWILL? If your theories were actually plausible, environment wouldn't influence at all who we are. And it's been proven that environment plays a huge factor in who we become.

I have the same issue, contemplating how to make sure the police reach the body before my parents - I think that barricading the exterior doors of the house (to stall whoever tries to enter the house first. if it's the police, they will break in pretty easily but if it's the family, they will struggle) and sending a delayed text (that you're dead by now, so they'll panic and call the police/ambulance right away) will suffice.
