Jumping versus SN

[CAH]

Hi all, Any thoughts on comparing these two methods? I gag easily, and I know many people have said that even with vomiting it works. In any case, I am looking at these in comparison, and cannot seem to make a decision.

Jumping takes a lot more courage to do IMO. Just looking down scares me enough not to do it. Also, you need to find a suitable spot to do the jump, which can be quite difficult depending on location and living situation. Also, if the jump isn't fatal, their is a high chance their will be permanent damage, which isn't fun.

With SN, it's quite easy to prepare, depending on your country. Also, taking a drink is a lot easier than making that jump. You can also spend as much time amping yourself up to take that drink, whereas with jumping, you can't wait too long or you'll get caught by do-gooders. The most enticing thing with SN is that the effects are pretty much always entirely reversible. If you're found/"rescued" you'll be pumped with the antidote, and back to normal within a week, if posts here are to be believed. Same can't be said for jumping.

SN is my preferred method. However, if you gag, or are prone to puking easily, it's most likely not for you.

Well articulated ... Agree with every word u said.

Yep, SN is my personal preference. But everyone is going to have different needs and priorities. You mention gagging as a possible negative of SN. What are the negatives of jumping in your opinion?

I'm jumping, there a bridge close enough with a good height that many others have been successful from.
I live alone and could attempt SN or I could hang myself, but it could take maybe 2 weeks or longer before anyone comes breaking my door down. And I don't want to leave my dog alone for that long. Also, I'm quick to gag. Some kids would refuse foods they didn't like, but I'd just vomit anything that tasted gross. Jumping I'd likely be found within a number of hours, I'm not afraid of heights, and doubt I'd be swayed by someone not to jump, and have plans so I don't look suspicious leading up to it.

My problem with jumping is how will I know I am at the highest point and dog walkers, I don't want someone to be a hero and try save me!
I don't want to jump at night either. I also worry how long it will take to ctb, will it be instantly? Will it be a few minutes, an hour? Will I feel the impact? Will I see my legs mangled, hmm... I just hope I'll be unconscious.

This may sound stupid and/or shallow, but my biggest concern with jumping is probably how my corpse will look. If jumping onto concrete ground not water and the fall is high enough, the end result isn't going to be pretty. 'Not pretty' I can live with (hah! See what I did there?) like grey/blue skin from SN and possibly some vomit which came out while unconscious. But 'gruesome' is not the way I'd want my body to be found. The chance I'll land as gracefully as Evelyn McHale is too small for me.
