Venting Im tired thinking about all the things I need to take care of before I CTB

[Tyra]

I wish there was a list of things you should take care of before CTB.

My mind is really foggy right now so it's hard to think about what I need to do. But I have time and sometimes I have bursts of energy.

I need to do things like delete all my phone/computer data, throw away or donate stuff that I don't want people to see after I'm gone.

And I then I have to spend a lot of time researching my CTB method. And I have to make my suicide note…

I don't know what else I need to do. If anyone has any recommendations of what I can add to my list that would be cool.

I just want to make things easy for my family after I die. I'm not superwoman so I know I can't do everything but I want to at least try if I can.

1. Make sure your finances / belongings are in order.
2. Review beneficiaries for things like retirement accounts that you might have.
3. Make a list of your logins for important accounts and devices, just in case loved ones need to access them for 2FA or something.
4. Compile a list of important documents like your birth certificate, passport, etc.
5. Prepare an obituary, if you wish, so that loved ones don't have to write one themselves
6. Make a list of important contacts you have.
7. Choose a funeral home. Make arrangements for how you want your funeral conducted

Obviously you don't need to do everything here. I for one won't be doing many of these things because many of them aren't applicable to me. I also don't care about what funeral arrangements are made for myself nor do I care to share my contacts. I'll be nice enough to give them device passkeys and account passwords just in case they need to access them though.
