What methods were you considering before you found this forum?

[butterfly000]

I was considering for a while to ctb by jumping in front of a train or by ingesting poison hemlock, but after lurking on this forum and looking into it some more I realized that these weren't particularly peaceful or reliable methods. I'm glad I found this forum before I made any attempts. Though it's a shame leaving this world peacefully isn't so straightforward.

 

[Slow_Farewell]

I feel the same way. I thought that there had to be a method that was peaceful and straightforward but the more i learn, the more i find that it isnt the case.
Of course, its given that those who did find the way arent able to tell us anymore but..i'd have thought it was impossible in this day and age to suppress that information.
I thought about drowning before, even went so far as to try and understand maritime charts to see which boats passed at the deepest location in my area because i didnt want my body to be recovered.

I was considering mainly jumping into the river but it turned out to be incredibly unreliable and the bridges in my city are way too close to the surface of the water so there's almost no way I'd be knocked out before drowning.
Also, overdosing my antidepressants. I was sure it's possible. Turns out - not really, unless I'd take a gazillion of pills. So it's good I saved myself some useless hospital vacations.

Hanging, overdose of sedative, knife. I didn't knew about SN.

 

[Sky_atri]

My plan was overdosing on Acetaminophen and caffeine on a daily basis till either my heart or liver gave out. Which thinking back wasn't the smartest plan.
I knew about N and SN but I don't have access to those.

 

[FuneralCry]

I remember when I was younger I heard of hanging suicides and they made it sound so much easier. But on here I found how difficult, painful and risky hanging truly is, it sounds like such a horrifying method, I certainly admire those who managed to succeed.

 

[turbomightbegone]

overdosage on sleeping pills. I remember I was in tears while looking them up on amazon a year or so ago.

 

[FujoshiNeet]

A nice Korean charcoal grill. I'm still obsessed with the idea and don't care if it will hurt but I straight up do not want to kill my upstairs neighbors.

 

[JOkE2109]

Slitting wrists/stabbing myself was what I first thought of. Later when I became more serious, I had the crazy idea to make a match powder IED to blow my head apart. Now I know there are much more effective and easier ways than that thankfully.

 

[onyx559]

Driving my car into a wall or jumping off a bridge. The high steel bridge which is 375 ft tall and a little over an hour away from my house.

 

[kaidatenn]

Jump, failed twice. Now kai opt for SN

 

[luneylonegirl]

Overdosing my meds for bipolar. And i've 3 fail suicide attempt because of that stupid idea.

 

[wCvML2]

Knife, hanging and gun

 

[Covalite]

Partial hanging (I actually went through on this method but failed due to the cable snapping while i was unconscious), jumping out a high window(again failure this time by cowardice), handgun(never have had access to a gun in my life so far), suicide by cop (never went through with this one for hopefully obvious reasons), silting my wrists/neck (glad i never tried this), and finally drowning (glad i never attempted this as well due to no rapids or high bridges near me at any point)

 

[Yavannah]

Xanax or Ibuprofen overdose

 

[mortuarymary]

Always N or gassing myself in my car.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

My method has always been CO poisoning (bc it's easily available!) as an emergency backup I always considered cyanide. Those were my methods long before I even searched for a forum like this and they are still my methods of choice except I would find a way to acquire N.

Other methods are either unreliable, I'm not comfortable with them or drugs/meds inaccessible for me.

I'm planning to jump today. I hope I manage. I really relate with your levels of research.

 

[rozeske]

The methods i planned to go through and thought would definitely kill me were oding on painkillers or Chlorpromazine, jumping from 5 story building, CO poisoning but I thought it was burning the black part of charcoal (the visible smoke) that would kill you. Boy was I wrong!
After stumbling upon this site I have settled on partial hanging.

 

[Endofit]

I first bought a rope but couldnt find any spot plus the violence of it was too much for me. I then considered taking tons of Tercian, only to discover that it wouldnt kill me at all. I'm now set on the SN method.

 

[Pol]

i was planning to use my late grandpa's small handgun. i think it was a .22 cal. i was saving some money to rent a small place where i can do the deep and hide my corpse for a while. i didn't think it would be given away when he died. then i did some more research, and i stumbled upon this site.

 

[Agon321]

Jump from a great height. I also thought about hypothermia. I live in the countryside, so in winter I could theoretically drink alcohol and lie down in the forest, where no one will find me right away. When I started reading more about CTB, I became interested in the inert gas method and thus I found this website by accident. However, I abandoned this plan and intend to use SN.

 

[throneofdispair03]

I used to consider jumping roughly a year ago. I switched to partial hanging because it's more reliable

 

[Tokugawa_Yoshinobu]

Jumping or cutting were methods of interest. Now no longer.

 

[EyeWish...]

I was gonna shoot myself in the head. Still considering it among other options but now I know I must aim for the brainstem. I coulda ended up a vegetable if I hadn't researched.

 

[Slow_Farewell]

I'm planning to jump today. I hope I manage. I really relate with your levels of research.

I hope you find the peace you're looking for, and wish you luck.

Fentanyl overdose. Fentanyl is extremely cheap (hence why product is so frequently cut with it) and lethal at absurdly low quantity, hence that there are so many deaths from product cut with it. However, I have no real-life substance contacts (even a run-of-the-mill weed guy could probably refer me to one, or a user in the same scene) and a DN setup with secure OS, PHP, and Monero is too complicated for me. Not too much so as to be feasible, but too much of an entrance barrier especially for an impulse decision like suicide which most of the time I instinctively push away. Injection is also easily botched if you are not a frequent user or a medical professional, and that is all the more true when your body is struggling against your mind. Users are not trying to CTB with the stuff, so they are also not panicking when injecting.

Meanwhile I've found more accessible methods on here (hanging, SN) and I'll probably be using one of those very soon.

Bleeding out

 

[Meimi18]

Jumping.
Finding the forum wasn't the reason why I decided to switch methods but it sure helped with research

 

[Princess_Kitty]

My method before I found this forum was CTB by OD'ing on prescription trazadone mixed with alcohol. I researched it and found that those 2 mixed together is a deadly combo. I still have it as a backup method.
