How to cause the least harm to my family?

[ZoloftSüchtig]

I know that if I do kill myself, that that will sadly have an impact on my family. I love my family a lot and I do not want them to suffer. I want them to be happy and safe. I'm a burden on them and so I do think If I'm gone they will probably have it better off however cause they love me they will be sad. How can I make them understand that it ain't their fault and that I want them to enjoy life even if I'm gone?

I personally would leave a note where I would explain in detail my thought process.I would mention that this was not a sudden decision which could have been avoided but carefully planned over a long time and there was nothing they could have done to stop me.I would also write that they shouldn't mourn my death as death has relieved me of all the suffering.

2 Options:

1. Write a letter explaining your reason. Write that no one would want you to continue suffering.
2. Make it look like an accident.

I agree with writing letters, I think it's better than leaving nothing as a letter can act as an explanation and it might mean that those left behind are less likely to be left with as many unanswered questions. But anyway best wishes.

Yes I've thought about making it look like an accident but honestly I think they'd know. I've told my mom before that I want to kill myself. My family knows I've been suicidal for about a year now. So I guess the first option it is
