I think my wife would be much better without me, but she seems attached, she says that she loves me and that she wants to live with me. She knows about my depression and she can handle me, and I assure you I am high maintenance. She cope with my mood swings. She does not know much about something I am doing recently. She would be ruined by my death however.
If that is a reason sufficient enough it means you still care for him. At the same time I do not think it is a good reason to endure pain just to satisfy other. We are entitled to decide about our lives. Selfish? Maybe, but it would be the last act of selfishness.
I think the same, she would get the money she needs to live for quite some time. After a bit she would get over it I think and she would not have to cope with me. I would not want to live with a person like me, I can be really too much.
Thank you for you sharing the thought.
Ideally I want to my the impact of my death as less and possible. I don't want to ruin any one's life. I thought if I can make my status "missing" instead of dead to avoid my husband to see my body. Then I thought about "husband theory" and I don't want to my personal life on evening news, Facebook etc because of searching or investigation. So probably "missing" is not a good idea.
I don't want to ruin anyone's life like my husband's, or my psychiatrist's career too. And hopefully not people first find my body too like hotel host. I don't want to people suffer PTSD after they saw my body. So hanging probably not for me. In the past 4 years, I have been sent to A and E lots of time because of suicide. That's really too much for me.
I don't think CTB is selfish, pain is pain and no one should "have to" live with untreatable illness. That's not a life.
And CTB is "one off deal", in some way is easy to deal than day by day base.
And my husband does not know what am doing here as well. And I don't intend to tell him. Currently I am waiting D come back and get some N from him. I need N anyway, I dont want to suffer psychology pain when I am getting old if I did not CTB this time.
I don't want to CTB in a hotel really but I see this is majority people's choice and home is easy to be find and easy to fail too.
