Hi everyone, not posted on here at all. Been reading a lot about SN method and i just wanted to know what the actual "success" rate is? I've tried several times to end my life but I'm obviously still here, I want to find peace and I'm sick of having no money, being in debt, having no friends, no social life, no job, being tired all the time, in pain all the time from a previous suicide attempt. I'm looking into SN because I don't want any pain. I've been through pain and could never do that same thing again. Please can someone advise or help me or even just talk to me? I'm new here so I don't really know how this works x

Welcome. I don't know much myself about SN as not a method I would choose for myself due to health reasons and others, but seems a popular choice. There is a lot of information here about SN and some very knowledgeable people. This is Stans info about SN, very detailed, it should give you alot of what you wish to know. I am sure you will get some more answers from people here, some kind and caring souls, so feel free to post and ask and share. Its a little daunting at first, I found that but soon get the hang of it all.

Hello @An0nymouse_97. I'm sorry you're struggling. The best place to start reading on the site is probably here:

There's miles of very useful links in that thread.

And if you want to talk more about your situation, people here are very good listeners. x

For people that have :
> Followed "Stan's guide" fully
> Not been found early by someone who then called an ambulance
> Not called an ambulance themselves

the success rate is very high.

There are spreadsheets here that have a lot of info :
https://sanctioned-suicide.net/thre...eriences-information-google-docs.29900/page-2
Careful analysis of those spreadsheets and/or further checking on certain specific cases will lead to the conclusions given above.

For the failed cases, we observe that most of them are due to medical intervention (being discovered or calling an ambulance themselves), plus some cases where Stan's guide was not followed very closely.

On the "success" sheet, there are (at time of writing) 12 "confirmed" cases, where the passing was confirmed in some way, either by an external obituary or news article (etc) being located, or by someone having observed the case in person or on a live video/audio call where cessation of breathing was observed.
The peaceful pill handbook states that 10 cases have been "observed", and all were successful.

In many cases there appears to be some discomfort with SN, but the discomfort level doesn't seem that bad to me.
In some accounts for "failed" attempts, people have stated that there was not much discomfort. Some stated there was no discomfort/pain.

A certain amount of determination to undergo discomfort without calling an ambulance may be needed for SN to be a suitable method for any particular person. Also keep in mind the importance of not being discovered within a certain time window.
