Discussion Is it ever too late to kill yourself?

[AndyCurious]

Wow, every response in this thread is very understandable/ relatable. I feel a certain amount of pressure to just DO IT already, while im young. I would love to do that, because i'm so scared that the longer i put it off the worse and worse it will get. Yet with that, it doesnt really matter? I could just let my life get worse and worse and worse and if i kill myself now or in 10 years itll have the same end result.

I get a bit of a thrill out of taking risks, so since i plan to end my life anyway, it would be almost like one last adventure to see how shit I can become before i go. This is impossible though as i don't have the funds or the energy to do any of it. The life i romanticize myself to have is impossible, but even that life ends in my suicide. It's a lose lose either way, whether i do it now or later really doesnt matter much i guess. Idk if any of this is making sense but i really hope at least one of you understands what im trying to say lmao

Makes sense to me Cee <3 Hugs

I would say that the sorts of things that would make you "too late" would be disability or impoverishment reducing your selection of methods to those less palatable to you, some sort of mental disability preventing accurate planning and follow-through, and being encumbered with obligations or responsibilities that you do not wish to abandon.

I do wish I had gotten started earlier.

This is me and terrifies me every waking hour

I really thought about that, but I guess I'm really calm nowdays since I gave up on this life and decided to end it soon, that's what kept me calm on daily basis, But eventually I know when the moment comes to take the sip of N my anxiety will go sky high etc, My only believe is N will make me sleep and I don't feel anything, During my surgery I went under anesthetic which wasn't bad I'm hoping to get similar experience when parting

I have never really given thought to a time when it is too late (too old maybe) to exit this world on my terms. I think that I have procrastinated often on ending my time in this world. It is a difficult decision to make. As I look back at famous people who have taking their lives, there are many who elected to leave the world when they had reached their 50's, 60's even 70's. For myself once I am ready, I will pick my method and simply exit. Perhaps it is never too late but maybe sometimes just not the right time.
