Discussion What are you going to say in your goodbye note?

[esistzeit]

If you are writing one, that is.

I have written goodbye notes before, but I failed my attempt every time I did so I kind of don't want to do it again.

In one of those letters I recall going in detail over the reasons as to why I failed in life and why it made sense to suicide. I addressed it to my best friend and I remember crying whilst writing it.

This time, I'm thinking of maybe making up a silly little story about how I have been contacted, in my dreams, by a being of another dimension. I have been summoned to leave this world and live a better life elsewhere. My family is so f****** ignorant that they might just believe it. This might help numb their pain a little bit.

However, I am so mad at everyone that I may not write anything. Silence hurts more than harsh words. Let them feel a fraction of my pain and see how they like it.

What are you going to write about?

You know, in my Goodbye Note I just wanted to write "Goodbye!", but then I read your post and now I'm definitely going to write something funny and completely bonkers. : )

I'd just explain how non-existence is what I wanted and how I chose to end my existence to escape from all future meaningless suffering.

I'd probably write enough to fill a book explaining how I truly felt to my family, explaining how I truly saw lives and basically just being brutally honest about anything really, for as bad as it will be, I just feel the need to show the world my true self even if I shouldn't. Then I'd write personal goodbyes to ANY human I met since I could recall, be it a friend, classmate, random person, internet person/friend or even people I played with when playing gsmes.

i've already written it and forgot most of it

it starts off with smth like "i'm sorry for your sadness, but i'm not sorry for my decision"

that's bc they somewhat started guilt tripping me w their feelings rather than understand my decision

i mean like i get it, losing someone hurts

but at some point it should be clear that i cba anymore

I would write two notes - one to the family member I'm sorry this will hurt, and one to my most abusive partner hoping he enjoys hell. I'll find a way for him to vouch that it's true when it happens - maybe give the phone number of the family member, and let the family member know the full story of the abuse. That way if he wants to verify if I'm gone, he'll speak to my family, who will scream in his face and call out the evil monster he is.
