Discussion suicide note yes or no?

[just_random]

So I'm getting close to go out (maybe in a few days) and was wondering what is the general thought on suicide notes?

I personally think it's cliche and it only makes things worse, but I would like to hear the opinions of others.
thank you

I would just to vent my feelings one last time.

I'm leaving a note. Already have it written. As a matter of fact, I'm writing a few letters to the very few people that I have very limited contact with. I'll be sending those out in the mail on the day that I decide to ctb. If I had them with me, they would be opened by LE, for the investigation.

I wouldn't leave a note. There is nothing a person can say to justify it in the families mind. 'There is always more options'. Ctb is viewed as a mental illness to the world. A long drawn out explanation doesn't bring closure. Plus, it's my life so I don't need to explain my exit.

On the other hand, if you want say goodbye and love you then that's fine.

I'm leaving a non emotional letter. What I mean is I describes all the physical and mental damages I have, then explain on what to sell, where I left some money and then all the information needed to end my subscriptions (related to my appartment) more easily.
The goal being my suicide is less of a burden to deal with.

It just depends on the individual and their situation whether it is a good idea to write a suicide note. I think that I would personally, to give those left behind some closure and will mean that they are not left with unanswered questions. However I do feel like no matter what I write, those left behind would never be able to fully understand.

Already written--Just a few lines, so the cops know for sure its a suicide, plus phone numbers to a few people to notify them, plus info on bank accounts, computer passwords, how to pay bills for the place(mtg,insurance,elec, cable,credit cards), last 4 numbers of social security number--My Will and suicide books will be spread out on the table.....and a picture of Patti and I when we first met.....

Aside from the reason that I would never be done writing it due to wanting to revise and edit it to an impossible perfection, I don't plan on leaving a note as I'm planning multiple precautions in the event that I fail the attempt. I'm getting myself into the mindset that I'm almost sure to fail and that I'll need to be able to pick up right where I left off as if nothing ever happened. The fallout of failure scares me more than my current state of affairs, which, obviously, is already driving me to suicide.

No no no. The fuckers do not deserve it.

Personally I'd say just do what feels right for you. The note is more about putting yourself at ease about what you're preparing to do than anything IMO because, if I'm being honest, there's nothing you can write that will make it better for most of those that it impacts after it's done. People think it's common but really only about a quarter of suicides have a note found with them, it's just been popularized by TV because it's good for drama.

Also if there's anything specific you want done after you pass, funeral arrangements, handling the body, passing of possessions, whatever, best to leave it there.

Normies don't understand people who are going through emotional struggle in life
all they think about is the inconvenience they have to deal with because of it
" Anon is such a pussy for killing himself, he should have not have committed suicide"

theres no reason to write a letter, they wont change their position or judgment on suicide

I will write an email to Pfizer saying that I hope they all burn in hell forever. Or get reborn as hair on my asshole. Nobody will read the email probably and even if, they won't give a flying fuck about disabling me for live, but it will be my final vent before killing myself.

Maybe send a letter bomb to them (in video game).

I would neither write any nor let anyone know about it, not even on this website. The reason is none other than to try to avoid above all the slightest possibility of failure due to the intervention of another person.

Yep I would write one to my mum, I could never tell her how much she means to me to her face without her guessing something was up. But I really want her to know it.
