I'm guessing you could make a goodbye phonecall with jumping?

Well I'm just thinking that if you're on the edge of a precipice waiting to jump over, then nobody could really intervene in time so you could make a goodbye call?

jumping from 4th floor, no.
jumping from say 30th floor, yes!

Imagine if you've prepared everything and then they don't answer! Ha ha.. at least I tried to say goodbye.

Exactly my plan, I'll be jumping from almost 30 meters into concrete, and I will make a goodbye call to a friend, maybe I'll deliver the suicide note myself through that phone call

wouldn't they just go into a panic and beg you not to though? That could be confusing? Also maybe they will then always feel guilty to not have been able to stop you?

Maybe, but you could tell them it's not their fault, and even if they think that, the thoughts will be most likely temporary. Apart from that, you'll be dead so what will you care

 

[Unwr!tten]

That sounds horrific. That will most likely traumatize your friend. I highly advise against this.

 

[!MIA!]

If you can explain youself properly, I'm sure your friend will understand. One day.

a note feels like it would be better for your friend

My advice: think about whether you want to do this for you or for your friend

If its for you, and you want to be able to talk to your friend in that moment, that's completely valid.

However, if you're thinking about your friend, there are many reasons why a note would be better. For example, if theyre on the phone, they will inevitably feel like they had some part in it happening, even if you tell then otherwise. A note would also give them more agency in when/how to deal with the situation, rather than forcing them into something.

Hope that helps and hope you find peace

Feel like this could lead to trauma on the receivers end, unless for some reason that's your goal. Also with jumping SI will be through the roof so you may get talked out of it. I'd leave a note it just seems easier.

Either way I hope you find peace moving forward OP regardless of your decision.
