What is your view on CTB in public?

[goodnight]

I'm not talking about jumping from a building or in front of a train,

My plan is to combine overdose, cutting my wrists and drowning in the lake to hopefully increase my chances. I do not have many other options. If I fail, I will try jumping.

I worry about a stranger finding me. Doing it at home is not an option. If I somehow fail, would I be in trouble since I did it in public? People aren't often at the lake but somebody would stumble upon a dead body soon enough, though I wouldn't exactly be CTB in front of a crowd of people...

I just need opinions :)

Hi

Your methods are painful and have a high failure rate. Overdose will just destroy your liver, Cutting is very difficult to do deep enough and drowning is hard.

PLEASE DO NOT TRY THESE METHODS

Jumping could work but it has to be at least 150 metres high and landing on your head.

There is a risk of people catching you unless you choose a time and place that is remote. You would not get in trouble but may end up in the psych ward in hospital.

As you are a new member i would encourage you to take the time to read different methods and educate yourself.

Desperation and being impulsive is how mistakes are made and results in pain. Killing yourself should be a rational decision that is done in a calm state of mind.

I hope you take the time to plan properly.

nothing wrong with showing the world that pain and misery exist for many just beneath the Disney-like delusion

I'm addressing your question, not the details.

Hey, i respect your method, that is one of my methods to, but doing it in public such as jump etc may results to trauma to some people that found it. Maybe you could try to read the threads available here first ^.^

I think doing it publicly can help raise awareness that assisted suicide must become legal. There needs to be government run clinics which help people ctb. If people had their way and there is no support for ctb, and no discussions about it like we have here in SS, then people would have to ctb without knowing what they're doing, they would be drinking rat poison, jumping of 2 story buildings with their head first, and shotgun using birdshot ammo, etc.

Thanks

I genuinely appreciate this so much, thank you :) This is probably one of the most helpful things I've been shown. I wish this information was easier to find (outside of this site of course)

 

[Superdeterminist]

I think that public ctb is less than ideal, but as long as good methods like N stay restricted, I think any method goes.

Yeah information can be a bit hard to find and will be over multiple threads

Take the time to read everything as it certainly will reduce anxiety and give you more knowledge

Please consider very carefully before you attempt to ctb. Please read up some more on your methods. Cutting wrists gives you scars but will not kill you (unlikely cicumstances aside). Your other methods are not entirely non-lethal, but all carry large risks of surviving with a permanently damaged brain or body.

Desperation and being impulsive is how mistakes are made and results in pain. Killing yourself should be a rational decision that is done in a calm state of mind.

This previous post has many good points, I would like to repeat the one that is central, to me.

Now on to your actual question. I considered doing it in public. I do not want anyone to watch me die, but someone will have to find the corpse and they will be less traumatized, I think, if they are neither particularily vulnerable, such as children, nor care about me personally. This means hotel or public or specific places where you will be alone for a while but then someone you are not close to will find you, I am thinking of a large impersonal workplace on a Friday night. I am jealous of the Swiss who can do it in a facility for this very purpose, in the presence of professionals as well as the people they choose.

Another way to handle being found, if that is important to you, is to write a brief letter to your local police department explaining what you (have) done and your circumstances. They will be legally obligated to check on your welfare and find you, for instance, if you ctb at home. If you use a dangerous (to others) method, you can let them know that in the letter, also. The one thing about doing it this way, is that you better be DARN sure you go through with it, because after you mail the letter, you probably have like three days or so (maybe an extra day if mailed late Saturday), and they will be coming to your door. This will be what I do because I have no one to look for me anymore, and although it really doesn't matter after I'm dead, I don't want to be stinking up the neighborhood for too long.

Most people think all suicidal people are mentally ill, even if the person only has a physical illness or no illness at all. The reasons are completely different and each reason must be respected.
