method idea- gunshot while in a bathtub?

[sadgirl9999]

So, I really thought I would be gone by now, but I had at least a little hope- instead, things have gotten exponentially worse though, and after a lot of planning, I've decided I am ready. I've had a .45 ACP with hollwpoint bullets in my room for a long time now. But the thing is, I am a young girl with no experience im guns. I know enough about the basics thanks to some knowledgeable people on here, and have chosen to do it through my mouth, but I can still see myself messing up. So I got the idea to do it while in a fully filled up tub. That way, if I miss a vital part, I'll still likely be passed out and drown. Just thought of it and seems like it would be pretty foolproof, but who knows. I just really do not want to mess up. Thanks for reading

edit- maybe a pool or ocean would be better, but slowly losing hope on this method too. sigh.

Hello, @sadgirl9999
I am sorry you are desperately looking for ways to die.
It is not good you don't have any experience in using a gun because this might be potentially dangerous to you and your health.
I would suggest having some practice beforehand.
The bathtub is not a 100% guarantee you will drown. Because the body may eventually be afloat.
Should you need us, always feel free to talk

My friend's uncle survived shooting himself in the head with a shotgun. Can't talk anymore, his face was destroyed, his jaw destroyed, lots of brain damage, etc.

You can try it if you want to, but just be warned about the potential consequences of waking up in a hospital without being able to move.

I know there is no 100% certainty, I just want it to be quick but idk nobody seems to think the gun method is good for me though. The rope broke when I tried partial last year though. I'm a 20 year old girl who is in immense physical pain and a ton of mental health issues, went from having a perfect life to nothing. Just want it to end and thought this might make my chances higher but I'm stupid

Please do not play with guns while taking bath, especially .45 has strong blowback. You may hurt yourself if you don't have experience. You need to know how to use the gun properly and the most important thing be sure 100% in your decision.

Okay thank you all for the feedback, I genuinely appreciate it. I guess hanging it is

I'm in a situation similar, too. I'm 18 (practically almost 19, roughly same age as you) and my life was perfect four months ago, and now it literally turned into hell. You're not stupid; when people go through literal hell and turn suicidal, they become very impulsive. You're not stupid, you're just being impulsive which is totally normal. How did the rope break?

I personally would stay away from guns. I always have a fear that if I make a mistake, I will be in worst condition than I started.

Thank you . I didn't use a strong enough one I guess, I took like 7 shots of vodka before it and woke up on the floor with it broken and next to me. It has scared me away from the method, & it's made me feel incompetent lol, but it's okay. I'm so sorry you're going through something similar. It hurts to reminiscence on how great things were.

It does hurt. Hurts too much to be bearable anymore. Maybe you could retry with a stronger rope? But since you are scared off by it now it's understandable if you wouldn't want to. Life really sucks

You're not stupid ! Don't ever think about yourself like that ! Stick with the gun method - it's my choice too. With a .45 and hollowpoint bullets there is not much that can go wrong. Just practise "dryfiring", i.e. using the gun without the ammunition in it, check the angle of the gun looking into a mirror, so you can see whether the bullet would take the right trajectory. You want the bullet to go straight into the brainstem of course, that's where you need to aim so you die quickly and painlessly. You won't even have time to hear the sound of the shot or feel any pain you'll be switched off like a light. You don't need to take any extra unnecessary and complcated dispositions. Just practise so you get it right when your times comes. I practise every day ! Good luck dear, and feel free to talk if there is something we can do for you....

Ya I've fantasized a lot about drowning. I think that would be a calm way to go. Right before u die it would feel like ur floating

 

[Midnight-rain]

Ideally my suicide would be similar, but instead of a bathtub I'd be in a lake and stand chest-deep in it. In the event that I miss and don't die instantaneously, I'd drown instead. Not a pleasant thought but I want to have no chance of survival.

Do you know any details, like did he do the problematical under the chin method?

It is sad to see so many young people here.

I assume he must have gotten the angle incorrect when shooting at the side of the temple and/or maybe flinching throwing off his aim. I don't recommend to shoot from the side of the head or so when using a long gun, simply for the fact that it is more cumbersome and harder to control. If using a long gun, I'd go from inside the mouth as there is less room to move about, easier to angle, and to position the barrel. It is still important to minimize flinching (anticipation of the gun discharge) to ensure the highest chance of hitting the brainstem/near brainstem).

GSW is definitely high risk high reward. Its not for me personally, it feels wrong, the consequences for failure are unacceptable, and I just don't want to leave a mess like that for someone to have to clean up. If you're committed to it, I strongly suggest you practice shooting first just to have an idea of how the gun actually operates. A steady hand at the last moment...I can't imagine how one would even manage that. But knowing your gun intimately could help.
