Discussion WHAT is stopping you from committing?

[Xebsora29]

Suicide, a term that is taboo in society.

Whats stopping you from taking action and succeeding?

Family & Friends?

Survival Instincts?

Fear of Death?

Other problems that have to be resolved?

I'm curious. Real curious.

 

[NothingElseMatters]

Fear

 

[KiraLittleOwl]

Right now I am staying with my friend's family after I was trying...
I failed because of SI and fear

 

[muffin222]

Hope for better days

 

[watereyes]

Used to be survival instinct when my method was to jump under a train.
Now its the pandemic that keeps me from buying a rope and do full suspension. I tried with a 6.5jack and obviously it snapped.

 

[Mr2005]

I can't commit to anything

 

[GoodPersonEffed]

The OP reads like it could have been written by Tony Robbins!

I sincerely mean no offense intended to the poster, I am responding solely to the content of the OP, and imo it reads as pro-suicide.

 

[Flump]

Failure, iv had 2 failed attempts and so scared to fail again

 

[disabledandhopeless]

Stupid hope. I'm sure that's a form of SI.

 

[tooStupidForExitBag]

A mix of SI and things I still wish I could experience

 

[Tomm58]

Covid-19. I'm serious. So, I blame the Chinese government for messing up my plans. Thanks China... Not blaming smart Chinese individuals, just China

 

[mediocre]

I am waiting to see if I can get help for my health problems and feel better. If I am not offered help or treatment it will be the end of the road.

 

[GiveUp]

Getting affairs and paperwork in order. Giving away possessions. I dont want to burden anyone afterwards.

 

[Vault of Memories]

Family and friends are the only reason I've waited so long since my last attempt. Probably going to do it when the COVID-19 settles down some. Also still need to get my hands on some antiemetics.

 

[oneofthoseyoudontwan]

Lockdown

 

[Soulless_Angel]

The fact the UK is fucked and the world has gone a little bit crazy thanks to china

 

[xkidx]

the pain it will cause others and possibly the last 20 minutes, i dont know how i will feel when the SN arrives, but i think i am ready

 

[Vault of Memories]

I do wish I was able to obtain N instead of SN, but I'm not sure if I'm willing to take the risk of ordering it.

 

[hypnogen]

Instincts, hope, fear.

 

[Serenity]

Currently waiting for all my supplies to come in, but even then I will probably make up some excuse to keep waiting. I think I'm mostly just afraid of there being nothing, which is ironic because I am obsessed with this state of nothingness at the same time.

 

[idontwannadothisanym]

lack of substance needed for the procedure.

 

[Secrets1]

Family and friends. Believe it or not the average suicide of society's down and out impacts ~135 people on average and 1/3 of those seriously. My time may be running short but there's enough left in the tank to try to see what happens. If shit keeps hitting the fan they'd understand more

 

[WinterFaust]

Leaving a mess behind and fear of death. I'm severely depressed and have been struggling to do any basic task. I'd like to at least clean up my room and pack my things so my family has one less thing to worry about.

 

[qwerty32]

Trying to look for something that's painless, quick, and quiet. I've tried CTB 3 times and they've been painful which makes me stop.

 

[wanderinglost]

I live in a shared house atm so I do not want them finding me on my conscience there is no more room XD
Also of course fear even the things I have seen do not make me a complete ice queen and I HATE admitting this I try so hard to push it away but I think a bit of hope too...Idk what for, the world is turning to shit and I am the wrong side of 40, I do believe my husband and daughter are better where they are though I could not imagine having a teenage girl, I would have her signed up to the forces as soon as possible lol..... no set of real answers to the question just another blah blah blah from the windmills in my mind

Also I am tired and am not a people person... bloody civvies!

 

[Notwinnernotawin]

Fear of failing, of being caught in time to survive and fear of leaving my mother alone.

 

[Thatdude]

Like most, it is fear. Fear that something will go wrong. Fear that my situation will improve if I give it just that much more time. Fear of what might happen after. Fear of the emotional toll it will take on my parents.

I actually came here today to maybe help find a good date to die. Logically I know my situation most likely won't get better. I won't get what I want out of life (a stable life, family, etc). I just hope when it is my time to go, that it will be peaceful and quick. And I hope I cause as little problems as I go.

 

[Woodnote]

My dogs are the only thing stopping me.

 

[SleeplessSoul]

The hospitals are overrun with coronavirus patients and I don't to wait fail and be a burden. I'm also waiting to find out if I've gotten on to a PhD programme.

 

[antler]

Family, shame over being the first person in the family to ctb. Don't want the people who hate me to have the satisfaction of my death. Fear of a bad afterlife. There's a bunch of different reasons. It mostly does boil down to societal pressure though. I already feel like a loser, I don't want to feel like a super loser.
