Suicide by shotgun?

[waterrrrrrrrrbottel]

I've been brainstorming methods for a couple months, trying to find one that won't make me a vegetable if done wrong. As you can imagine, it's been infuriating. I overlooked the gun method, but I came back to it and realized a shotgun is a lot heftier and makes it nearly impossible to miss the brain stem. I dig the odds, and I dig the chances of me getting ahold of one, compared to something like oxy or fentanyl. I will probably begin to do my research on this now. Are there any flaws in my new method? Thank you.

I decided long ago I won't want to traumatize my mother. I'll do it somewhere in the woods, I'll leave her a note at home.

Regardless, I personally wouldn't disfigure myself. There's been plenty of studies that support the idea that viewing the body helps the survivor in the grieving process. Some say it's necessary. It's very likely that she'll want to see you. By disfiguring yourself you are, in a way, robbing her of that experience because the only thing she'll be able to see is a bloody mess. Just something to think about.

It's an effective method but not perfect, if it fails it will leave you disabled and at the mercy of a caretaker, and as other user have expressed whether you fail or not it will not leave a pretty scene. That being said if a firearm is how you want to go it's probably the best method.

As far as methods go, a shotgun blast initiated through the mouth, that blows out the back of your skull and brain stem, is as close to 100% efficacy as you can get in a method. Yes, it will make a mess and may be somewhat horrific for whomever finds you, depending on who they are, but if that isn't a concern, and have access to a shotgun, it's the best method by all standards (effectiveness, quickness, painlessness).
