Suicide Notes?

[BlueLock]

Ive never left a note in any of my past attempts. Never knew what to write. This time I'd like to maybe (strong maybe here) leave a note. For my sisters sake I guess. But I just don't know what to say in it at all. Sorry? There was nothing you could do? I wanted to do this? Idk it all seems so cliche and fake, despite it literally all being true. Something about writing it out makes it seem so whiny and shallow. But at the same time it just feels worse to say nothing.

Anyone relate?

It's the same with my best friend.
They sexually harassed me. They groped me.
And somehow I still love them.,and i wanna write them a letter
That's the part that messes with me the most. Because I know what they did wasn't okay. I know I should be angry, or at least able to walk away cleanly.
But I can't.
Instead I'm sitting here thinking about writing them a letter.
Something like, "I'm sorry that losing you is what broke me."
Or "I'm sorry, even after everything you did, I still can't bring myself to hate you."
And I hate that.
I hate that my feelings don't match what happened.

They just want to know that you loved them and that they couldn't do anything to change things. It does feel empty to me, but maybe because I am empty. They can't understand how we feel, doesn't matter what we say. So I intend to keep it simple.

I wasn't going to leave a note, but this changed my thinking:

There's not really a template to follow for notes, they're deeply personal, but if you can, write it by hand, don't type it out, it takes longer but it's way more personal, forces you to think more before you put things to ink and is harder to fake. Other than that, basically write anything you want, just keep it separate from your will, I know some people are tempted to fuse the two but please don't do that, one is a legal document while the other is a personal note that, as far as I'm aware, holds no real weight besides emotional worth.

HOW TO WRITE A SUICIDE NOTE

 

[burninghill]

Writing a suicide note is never something I felt like was really an option for me. Every time I tried I felt like I came up with more questions than answers and being honest about what happened in general would probably make people feel quite guilty.

Last time I attempted, I recorded a video note just before. I've been keeping a video diary since. I think it's a good option
