Discussion If SI weren’t a thing, which method would you consider?

[Hirokami]

I've noticed many of us are hesitant to ctb due to SI and want to try the most peaceful methods to make things easier. If SI didn't exist, would you pick an alternative (and possibly quicker/easier-to-access) method?

I've personally had thoughts of piercing my jugular vein. It's easy to get a knife sharp enough, though the act itself would be daunting. Plus, I can imagine the pain being overwhelming at first. If I didn't have SI, none of that would matter to me.

For me, certainly drowning. That method sounds so horrible and difficult to do because of the SI. I do wish that I could bring myself to ctb by this method as it sounds more easily accessible than many other methods.

Jump in front of a train

SN because there is almost no chance of negative effects should I fail.

 

[lofticries]

Sn. I mean I can get it within the click of a mouse and can do it inside a hotel easily.

It has more to do with pain than SI. But if SI didn't exist, I'd jump off a cliff.

I think I'll have to do that if I don't find SN

 

[I need peace]

Jumping into water, definitely. But as it is a thing I'll stick to SN or something similar

Drowning seems to me to be one of the most painful things. Suffocating is such extreme pain and torture. i tried holding my breath and the pain started but i kept holding it and the pain kept increasing every second , worst feeling ever, i can't imagine the torture if i couldn't have taken a breath in , in drowning the pain would have kept increasing for 5 minutes sometimes until you pass out and you can't take a breath that's extreme pain and torture. That pain like that is possible in this animal body they call a human body is enough reason just that for me to ctb asap. 1% chance of that kind of torture like in drowning, stroke , homelessness and other hells is enough nothing is worth that imo

i just can't stand pain. I would never go for drowning, only something that doesn't cause permanent damage if i get interrupted , it's call SN, there can be only one ,well for me

 

[Hurt]

Drowning. Without any doubt. I tried this and always my SI kicked in.

I would Just jump from a high building

Jumping into the American side of Niagara Falls

That has abojt a 25% chance of working, based on reports of observed attempts.

 

[Passersby]

At this point I don't even think it matters. I just want to to be peaceful.

 

[Thankyoufortoday]

Jumping into the American side of Niagara Falls

As someone who lives in the area, I would do this too

 

[peanuts]

Even if SI wasnt a factor i'd still worry about pain etc. I'd go for SN, or maybe carbon monoxide.

 

[Someone123]

I would go back to my original plan, which is overdosing on pizza, and I would eat pizza until my stomach burst. :)

Sn

 

[g0921]

A beautiful antique dagger right into my heart.
(Lets forget about the pain, if it is non realistic talking anyway.)

No.
My original method of throat slitting. It's the only real time SI may have been present in me.

 

[nopride86]

I'd do pretty much anything if pain wasn't a factor (my SI comes from physical pain).

But if this is without SI but still pain, I'd probably jump.

Even with current SI I'd be open to jumping, but there's nothing in my city high enough for guaranteed fatality. (Highest structure is a bridge that is 50ft - or only about 3 stories).

I have seen that statistic, but I think it applies only to the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. According to this Wikipedia article, there are no recorded cases of anyone surviving jumping over the American side.
