Venting The age when you first seriously consider CTB.

[ForsakenDial]

I was 11.

 

[Tired_of_myself]

i wrote my first suicidal letter at 13... first attempt at 15... last attempt 32... im 33 try and somedays are so hard....

 

[soulsing]

Around 12 years old. I thought I'd never make it past 18. If only that were true.

Maybe 9 or 10, not sure of the exact age... but I remember back when I had access to a firearm (through Dad), I put a gun to my head when I was 10 years old. Wish I pulled that trigger and ended it on a high(er) note while I still could've. I would've saved myself so much upcoming horror. I at least would've died a good person.

17

18. I'm now 24-25. Funny how much and yet how little things have changed.

 

[Sarros]

My reasons and thinking have changed and evolved since then but I thought about since I first learned about death in general, so about 6 or 7 years old.
My first thought was that people could die in so many unpleasant, upsetting, or horrible ways, that killing oneself could be a way to avoid that.
The one that followed was born from observing people live unpleasant, upsetting, or horrible lives and that I wouldn't have the courage to live that kind of life and so I would kill myself to avoid it.

I don't remember exactly, maybe between 18-20. Now 47. If I had left at that time, I wouldn't have had to suffer another 27 years of this BS existence. 27 years of shitty and useless time.

How old were you when you first really wanted CTB?

My first attempt:13
Ctb thought: idk probably 5 6 or 7
Second attempt 13
Third attempt 13

 

[BlockHammer]

Depended on my circumstance, prolly i'd off myself in the age of 25. But if there's a sifnificant change then i'll extend my ctb age

13. It's been a while. Ideally, I'm going out within 21-23, but 32 is my deadline if I go on autopilot

You have 6 more years. I am 47. I can't imagine live 6 more years.

Yes I will go with propofol but still here bc my mom is still alive. I am prisoner.

Are you her only care giver? I get that must be hard. I lost my purpose when I lost the one I cared for plus horrible menopause symptoms that affect me mentally to the point of being here.

 

[Styrotoast]

I first attempted at 5 but I dont think I truly knew what I was doing so probably around 8-9

[lovedread]

13 because i was ugly and apparently that issue was unfixable, oh yeah and stupid. Dumb reasons to ctb tbh

 

[Praestat_Mori]

40 / 41 after a big failure in life.

Oh are you her carer? I know propofol is used to sedate ppl.

Sorry I forgot I already replied, please ignore. If you need to vent I'm here

 

[Dark Window]

I'm in my 30's now.

I'd say late last year was my first time seriously considering it.

Previously I had suicidal thoughts but never got close to it, it was just something I thought about from time to time.
