Discussion Is it worth trying two or more methods at once?

[sla_porra22]

I'll explain it better

I stopped to think the other day and realized that having two or more methods running simultaneously could be very useful. Besides having a higher chance of working (in theory), if they found me and took me to the doctor, they could treat one thing without knowing about the second method. For example, they find me trying to use the night-night method, but I also used SN. Doctors may focus on the most obvious thing and simply not realize that I have another, less obvious plan.

The biggest drawback of this plan, I think, would be executing both methods effectively. Normally, even just one method is difficult, so two of them could mean you end up not doing either correctly

I'm not sure really. So- if both methods create difficulty breathing say- I imagine distress levels would be much higher. So- is there more chance we may panic more because of that? I guess it depends on what a person combines and how quickly we pass out.

Night night and SN though- you've got the laboured breathing going on with the SN taking effect presumably. Plus a rapid heartbeat plus possibly a headache and likely vomiting. Combining that with a restriction around the neck, I just don't know really.

I know what you mean though. I definitely feel anxiety that- whatever I attempt needs to work on the first attempt. I would ideally like to have more than one method set up to try although, I'm not sure trying them simultaneously would be wise. But then, there's the concern the first one will only incapacitate us- rather than kill us. It makes me so worried.

Yes, if you can set up contingency plans for yourself, definitely do it. I think more people should stack methods on top of each other, if they REALLY want to be sure that they die.
For example's sake, one combo that I can think of which would be very reliable is full suspension hanging + SN + firearm. Get the noose around your neck, take your SN and then shoot yourself, which will knock you off of your feet. You're definitely not surviving that, and no one is going to be able to save you, either.

Stacking methods doesn't have any practical place in dying. Do one, and do it well. Stacking invites failure

I agree. Unfortunately we don't have those pods everywhere; wouldn't that be nice tho.
The only version of that I had considered would be a measly OD with SN (reconsidered with vomiting BIG N-O) but OD/jumping (bridge) makes sense to me. not long before, but right before.
But that was before they destroyed my beautiful Golden Gate Bridge with those expensive nets I fell ill and was in the hospital for a long time before I could make it there before they started putting them up.
that is still my preferred method if anyone actually knows anywhere in the US accessible. Of course there's places. But guaranteed ones. ik niagra I just never researched it too much/don't know if guaranteed.

Definitely

In this case, it was just to serve as an example. The combination of these two things doesn't really make much sense. It was more to illustrate the idea. Hanging, for example, would be more effective. Or SN + exit bag. In that second scenario, if they found me, I would try to treat the most obvious symptoms, which are those of an exit bag, and by the time they realized the SN, I would presumably have already died. The idea is to use one obvious method and one less obvious method, to avoid treatments in time and ensure that it will work

I've thought about this a lot. But in my case, for example, neither suspension nor firearms are available. But I believe that if someone has those things, it's one of the best ways. I've also thought about jumping from a high place immediately after shooting yourself. I think that's a worthwhile option too, if you have weapons ofc

I don't think it lacks practical benefit, actually. But I agree that doing one good thing is better than two, anyway. However, I also believe that the redundancy of two methods can be helpful, especially if you are found by someone

Personally, I'd stick with one method and put all my energy into making sure I did it right.
