if all methods were guaranteed and painless - which would you pick?

[Praestat_Mori]

If all methods were guaranteed and painless ...

the question which method to pick becomes obsolete.

Depending on availability I would just choose anything that kills me.

Realistically, my preferences are: N, CO, drug/med OD

 

[lostintheloop]

I don't really care for painless as long as guaranteed and that in this hypothetical there is no way to back out .
But I'd choose self-immolation

 

[FuneralCry]

I'd just choose Nembutal, I personally just wish for an method that is as painless as possible, I wish to die painlessly like never waking again, I want some peaceful poison to take away all the meaningless suffering existing causes and having access to such would be such an overwhelming relief. All I wish for is to finally cease existing, I only want the peace of an dreamless, eternal sleep. Non-existence is always preferable to me, it's all I see as desirable.

I have N but don't have the guts to do it. I stare at my N everyday asking myself when will the day arrive when I'll have the guts to take it. I think part of me.is worried that the N from 2018 has lost its potency and I'll fail in ending it. If I had a 100% guarantee it's still potent I think it would make my decision alot easier

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Overdose on some random pills. If the method is guaranteed and painless, overdosing on some random pills would basically be like consuming nembutal except that it would be better as nembutal isn't fully guaranteed to work

I would jump into an active volcano, like empedocles, and be reborn as a god.

Being eaten by mountain lions sounds nice too; Id love to have my flesh nurture these beatiful creatures.

have you heard about tibetan sky burial? probably extremely difficult to organise outside of tibet but it sounds like something you'd be interested in

I am obsessed with sky burial. The idea of becoming sustainance makes me feel whole like nothing else.

Vultures also digest and destroy the diseases from the corpses so they protect the living too.

 

[Jon Arbuckle]

Pills.

 

[Hotel]

I live in the uk so there is no guns here but I've always wanted to go out by self inflicted gunshot to the head. It seems really quick with no time for panic to set in. But no guns here so I'm fucked lol.

 

[Exitwings]

I mean, boring practical answer: OD on pills. (Already failed twice, would like it to be easy and work!)

Fantasy answer: jumping because I want to feel "flight", or fire because. Well because it's fire. But in your scenario these things would still not be ideal, as getting up somewhere to jump would be too difficult for me, and I don't want to traumatize people, and lighting myself on fire would definitely be dangerous to others unless I was extremely careful about where I did it.

I'd like the meatsuit to be eaten but after I'm out of it lol.

if traumatising people wasn't an issue i'd probably jump in front of a train or car. i'm not sure why this method appeals to me tho - maybe because of how romanticised it is in the media? i wouldn't ever do it unless i was at a total breaking point, but we can always dream lol

That's a good choice. I'd probably choose being vaporized With a goal at Old Fashion Kamehameha wave.

Realistically speaking it'd be nice to go out In the desert and activate a Tzar bomba With the yield switch set to 100 megatons Instead of the 50 megatons it was detonated with in our timeline. Going out with the largest human explosion ever made doesn't sound too bad.

I think one benefit Is even if you don't take the posters example of painless into account Even in reality the explosion would happen so fast i'd be instantly vaporized before My brain even knew what had happened. Likewise being on a submarine that implodes Also happens faster than your brain can possibly register but I have terrible Thalassophobia so The idea of being deep in the ocean anywhere really doesn't appeal to me.

 

[Save_Me_Mind]

I would go with a Stab to the heart. I believe it is just a beautiful and poetic way to go... so much blood being spilled, your vision is fading away and the last thing you think about is how in the past your love has stabbed your heart and now, you have chosen to do the same...

 

[sos]

the 'go to sleep and don't wake up' method

 

[pursuit29]

In my opinion short drop full suspension hanging is the most peaceful and best way to go. Think of it this way, being rear naked choked in MMA is very peaceful if you just relaxed and let someone trained do it. It works with same concept with carotid constriction which leads to passing out. The issue with hanging is you have to have a reliable anchor point for the rope you use because there will be convulsions during death and you don't want the rope to break free + the rope strength and knot strength are key because that can also fail/loosen leading to you regaining consciousness possibly in a brain damaged state. But in terms of peaceful in my opinion it's peaceful.

There are guns here lol, of course there are! We literally have an armed police force, and the Army, etc. Or did you mean legally?

You have to know people though, like nasty drug dealers or some shit, I would assume.

 

[Tarrasque]

I don't want any sort of drama. Something peaceful that won't traumatize the person who finds the body. If you could just choose to painlessly die whenever, I'd just go for a walk out in the woods, find a nice pretty spot and go to sleep permanently - so I guess quick and easy VSED. Out of the real methods, I guess a poison.

 

[mrtime87]

Pills. Nothing dramatic, just take some pills and pass out. I don't have a car, so with pills I could just stay home and do it.

 

[whaleandwasp]

probably sucked into a salmon tube

your profile pic is adorable as is your answer to the OP :0)

 

[mrtime87]

On second thought, maybe hanging. I have rope but the thought of not breathing for 7 minutes has stopped me from going outside to a local tree and trying a noose. That and finding a way to tie the rope to a higher branch/limb.

I have a ladder but it's too big to carry to the woods and no car. There is a tree tho that is obscured at night that I could hang myself from.

 

[Readytogo246]

nembutal

 

[i dont feel real.]

Blow myself with a bomb. No shit. Go to the middle of nowhere and do it. Some cool shit or something that will appear on the news: like an action movie. Or shotgun or idk, whatever method I could use as fast as possible.

 

[defrauder9000]

These are uncreative answers. For no pain, you're telling me you guys wouldn't want to know what it's like to be eaten by a shark, or to die of exhaustion after winning a marathon or be cut in half with a laser?

For me, it's removing my space helmet on the moon or nothing

if were playing that type of game... i'd try to be struck by lgihtning lol

 

[etherealspring]

literally anything that's accessible to me

 

[rokonie]

Jump from somewhere high. I'd pretend it's like flying and enjoy the view. My body will also go splat on the ground and be unrecognizable. Idk if it makes sense but i think seeing a red blob is less traumatic (to whoever comes across me) than an intact, pale body with closed eyes. Eugh.

 

[zeropercentangel]

Probably hypothermia. It seems so peaceful to just lie in the snow and watch the sky as the cold is slowly killing you. I've been fantasizing about it a lot but unfortunately there's like 5 cold days per year here where I live.

 

[wristcutangel]

jumping. sounds like it'd be exciting and i hate everyone where i live anyways, so would be good payback lol.

 

[wanttodie12345]

I wish I could write a note, say some prayers, go to sleep, and dream about saying goodbye and getting forgiveness and hugs, then just fade to black nothingness. Like some kind of ritual so we couldn't accidentally wish ourselves dead.
Or an OD on whatever pills are are handy. Bonus points if no one was traumatized by needing to deal with my body afterwards.

 

[dimgobaith]

Guaranteed painless? Hang myself or pills

 

[iloveduster]

Stabbing myself multiple times and then just bleeding out
