Help Isolating before ctb - yay or nay?

[-nobodyknows-]

To me, it seems like the right call, as I think it might help to keep people out of it and reduce the likelihood of people knowing what happened.

But damn, it sucks being alone. I hate breaking things off with people, but I feel like I should prioritize their wellbeing.

Anyway, very conflicted, advice would be appreciated. My profile's open so feel free to look through my posts and stuff. Thanks a bunch.

IMO, people who are dying of old age or diseases don't isolate themselves from others. Or, well, they don't have to. I think you deserve to live your life to its (relative) best until the end. Other people will grieve a loss, but they'll also grieve the losses of other people who die not by CTB. I think it's ok. It's part of life.

I would say, if you didn't live very isolated before and you suddenly isolate yourself then this could be suspicious.

honestly in my experience, people notice less than you think.. no one cares and everyone is focused on themselves..

Yes you are right but it's not always the case and depends on circumstances. Some people may have caring families and in such situation they would notice that imo.

I have isolated but more for selfish reasons. I need to think clear of what I need to do. I can't think straight about my needs of ctb looking into their sad pleading eyes. I can't plan my exit while socializing acting like everything is fine and fighting not to breakdown. I could try arguing/convince myself that I am preparing them for my "departure" and the loss of me but in reality I know am making things hard on them and that this is hurting them and I know am robbing them of their last moments with me. Quite selfish of me, i know, but I need to choose me for once and do what needs to be done to get what I want and need. We can't have it all.
