How do you deal knowing that peaceful methods are getting harder to get everyday?

[Starchaser]

I mean, there will always be peaceful methods available, right?
Like, there is a lot of drugs (amitryptiline, fentanyl, heroin) that can kill you easily and peacefully nowadays
But, fuck... What If N, SN and other peaceful methods become harder and harder (which is clearly happening) to get?

The only reliable method that will be EVER available, in my opinion. are firearms.
A clean shot on the head/mouth is 98% guaranteed to kill you before you blink your eyes, but I'm not sure if I have the guts to pull the trigger
Also, the people which fails a gunshot, live a miserable life for the rest of the years

It's scary to think on this future
I have SN, N and a revolver available to me (yes I'm that paranoid) in my locker, but yet, It scares the shit out of me... Since N and SN has expiry date (even well storaged)
Plus the fact that I'm not pretending to kill myself now.
And I'm 99% sure I will not have the guts to pull the trigger on a revolver anyways

How do you cope with that?
What are your plans?

It mostly makes me sad to see any 'peaceful' methods becoming harder, even N is illegal in many places so even if obtainable, it presents many risks.

I've already ordered SN and I'm getting close to ordering N, then I always have hanging to fall back on. I'm not sure I could ever go through with jumping but that's always a consideration. I've considered various gases too, and honestly would be fine going that route. I might just get to a bad enough point that I'm able to overcome my fear and go through with hanging, that's somewhat my hope anyways. It seems like I could be gone in a few hours if I could get it right and get over the pain and panic.

This scares me. My current plan is N but it'll be several months before I can order it. I don't know what I'll do if something happens to D's supply in that time.

I disagree that gunshots will always be accessible to us. If current trends in gun control continue, it'll only be harder to get one. I personally would be hard-pressed to get a gun now even if I wanted to. Since I've had recent involuntary hospitalizations, I couldn't do so legally.

I think the methods that would be hardest for pro-lifers to control are:

• Traffic accidents, including jumping in front of a train
• Jumping from a height; although there are anti-suicide measures on many bridges now, people will always be able to find a remote cliff or something
• Dying out in nature, including by drowning and hypothermia
• Self-immolation
• Forms of self-strangulation, asphyxiation (e.g. using a bag to deprive yourself of oxygen), and hanging

There's no reasonable way for even the most ardent suicide-preventionists to eliminate all options, but of course the cruel irony is that the most peaceful options are generally the least accessible.

I also don't see it as being likely at all that we'll reach the point where the above become our only options. I'm posting this out of pure intellectual speculation, not to be an alarmist.

N will last 20 years least personally you'll be good. If i couldn't get N I would have to resort to backup plan of jumping off a bridge. I am determined to die since I lost my love of my life.
Also there is a seller for Phenobarbital on the darkweb markets rn. It's not ideal and not to be confused with Pentobarbital but I'd probably go for that.

I think that the demand is high enough for the peaceful options to always be available.

 

[FuneralCry]

It is a cruel world we live in where the society denies us the option of a peaceful exit and expects us to suffer for decades. Nobody should have to resort to risky and painful methods to end their suffering. If other people want to live then that is fine for them but they should not try to force others to. Suicide should not be so stigmatised and the right to die should be respected. Suicide is very difficult for me personally, but eventually I will find a way when I get desperate. I will not live until an old age no matter what happens.

 

[sealbabies]

Terrible. The worst. Don't have the means to get a firearm and even if I do I find it almost as scary as jumping.
I really want my SN to come in because as soon as I can I'm acting. Not waiting to lose the chance, because my alternative is hanging, full suspension....which is not peaceful.
But I also need a pretty reliable way to ctb. And desperation only grows with the years and the things that fill and empty them.

 

[Al_stargate]

Feel sad for people in this difficult situation who don't have a peaceful, dignified option. Man, I don't know what I would do without N. Not sure if I have guts for anything else. My other method would be partial, which is not that easy to accomplish.

 

[nopride86]

I've been close to a situation where a gunshot to the head didn't result in death. That's the one thing keeping me from doing it.
N and SN seem unobtainable for me now, because I don't have a lot of money and I'm pretty shit at computer/digital stuff. I'd like to try the fentanyl patch but idk any dealers, I don't have any friends to even hook me up with one. SI kicks in too much for partial or jumping.

It makes me feel invalid, like do I REALLY want to ctb if I'm too inept to get what I want? What am I even doing here then? I just want access to a safe and painless end, but I'm worth more alive and suffering in the eyes of the state than to be granted the dignity of going out on my own terms.
