What was your method before joining SS?

[happy?1270]

came for info on partial. Now doing some research and asking questions about SN

 

[EGR92]

Originally it was jump infront of a train unfortunately that failed as i impulsively went to do it, on a sunday, when there are barely any trains. So i was hanging around for ages and somebody reported me. I was detained by police.

Then it was fentanyl but it seems impossible to get.


Now its N, im just waiting on a response from A

Funnily enough, I discovered this site when I was about to overdose on paracetamol, which was the only method I had. Luckily I read about other people's experiences with paracetamol overdose and changed my mind bc I didn't realise how painful it was lol

I'm glad you were spared from that.

My method was going to be slitting my own throat before I found this site but I'm using the train method now.

 

[the box is empty]

Initially I thought I would go somewhere remote and cold. Call the police and say I found a body and then shoot myself in the head. My note would read "I'm a donor." But I don't have easy access to fire arms.

So I settled on hypothermia. Like "To Build a Fire" by Jack London. And I studied all the affects and the ways I can counteract the drawbacks and still be successful.

But that plan is very weather dependent and there's a lot of other factors involved for it to be successful. I think it's why my mood lifts up in the winter. Because I know I have that option. But I had a severe depressive episode during the spring and I couldn't bear it so I tried to find an answer with the means available to me and I found this site.

 

[Sinai Silence]

Methods I've tried include; ODing on pills and alcohol twice. Gas and exit bag. Suspended hanging.

 

[faust]

Well, I was duckduck'ing N when accidentally ran into this forum. When I was 16, the method was not 100% chosen, but self-immolation seemed the most attractive to me. So ye, my preference was barbiturates. Both pento- and phenobarbital. I learnt about this method from biographies of some famous people.

 

[thethatsitboy]

I was going with jumping. It is still an option, but currently SN has taken the first position

 

[Eurus]

Before this site,I considered and attempted an OD,was a mistake,now, I'll full suspension hang,with the proper way

This is a method I've been contemplating too. A Quebec politician's mother died not long ago from hypothermia. There's this famous psychiatrist who had a radio show and he said that this is actually a very peaceful and painless way to die. He explained that your body goes numb pretty quickly the colder it is outside and then you just fall asleep and die in your sleep. She was living in an elderly apartment complex and there was a false fire alarm. She went outside by an exit door (but not the main entrance) and couldn't get back in because she didn't have her card with her to open the door. She died while waiting for security to come get her, they found her dead hours later.

I was thinking of looking for a big snowy spot where I could hide in the middle of the night (between 2 and 4 a.m.). It would have to be at least -30C outside so everybody will be inside and I would hide in my spot, take off my coat and just wait to fall asleep.

It has always been the firearm since I want a reliable way out. It also sends a really powerful message as well. What SS has helped me was the recommendation of which firearm and caliber to get as well as the part of the legal acquisition of it (though I already had a good idea beforehand, it never hurts to find corresponding information from other sources to confirm with). Without the firearm, I would have resorted to other methods, maybe less reliable and are more difficult to execute such as hanging, jumping, and/or inert gas (CO₂). I'm happy that this place exists as it provides detailed information for each method and allows the person to decide for him/herself which method suits him/her best. Also, for those who decide not to go through with it, there is a recovery section that allows people to have a renewed lease on going forward with life.

 

[MewtwoIsAlive]

haha actually I planned to hang myself

 

[serah]

Taking whatever pills I had in the med cabinet + cutting some artery (neck, wrist, or thigh) never sure which one I was gonna go for.

 

[GonnaGoBye]

Researched kinds of stuffs. First it was hanging, then inert gas, then hydrogen sulfide poisoning, Herbal poisoning, N, then Sn. Then SS.

 

[DyslexicForeigner]

It was Hydrogen Sulfide gas (H2S) poisoning inside a small car, bought all the essential items to do it, researching a bit more (what was at that time) the most recent information, but then I found out this SS site (which was just 3 months old) has a much more peaceful CTB methods like SN and N but very rare discussions regarding the H2S method.

Some members who tried this method somehow failed and told me that it was really painful and dangerous to the first responders and the people around you! So I was a bit reluctant to threw them all to the bin because I paid so much money for a freaking 20 bottles of lime sulfur from a bonsai tree supplies company (almost $400)!

But long story short I was convinced by the lethality and effectiveness of SN method thanks to the viral Shawn Shatto case and also a big thanks to the creator of Stan's guide to SN: Mr. Stan himself. If it were not because of them... I would have died very painfully or survived with permanent organs damage!

 

[wonderworld]

mine was OD-ing, done it few times but anxiety always kick in and then I would have to sit in A & E for hours, now it jumping (or hanging if I can master it)

 

[VexRal]

Mine was either swallowing as much pills as I had or jumping off a bridge. Saw some posts about SN but I don't think I can acquire the components so I'll be sticking through the bridge

 

[RainAndSadness]

Fentanyl. I wanted to buy some from the darknet. But then I stumbled upon N and changed my mind very quickly.

 

[Angina]

Before joining: SN
After joining: also SN

 

[maru.]

My first method, when i first considered suicide, in 2018, was OD on meds and alcohol, since it was the first thing that came to mind.
Then i did some more research and really liked the exit bag.
However, since joining this place, SN seems a lot better, so it's my current one, with my second option being the good old OD that i planned initially.
The setup from the exit bag is kind of meh, i know i'd probably mess something up, and i remember something about there being a risk of brain damage.
I prefer to OD on meds that give me liver failure instead if i fail, even though that's not ideal either.
I'd go for N or F, but those are too expensive and hard to get for me.
So yeah, hope i can get SN soon, when an opportunity shows up, it's kind of a complicated situation for me to get it right now.
I hope that by the time i get the chance to buy it, it's not more regulated or inaccessible, it makes me panic thinking about this possibility.

 

[Nachos]

12 Gauge hollowpoint shotgun to the roof of the mouth, but I found this website after looking for something less.. messy. Decided I wanted to stay in one piece after all. Having trouble deciding from partial hanging or N.

 

[rundschlinge78]

Full suspension hanging

 

[LetzteAusfahrt]

100 ml GHB rectally.
But then I have to keep a lying position. I do not like it.

I want to be able to do a joy dance when the time comes.
That's why I switched to SN, which gives me enough time to enjoy the moment

 

[Shinkansen]

before discovering SS, I tried partial hanging several times, but I was wrong because I couldn't pass out and my neck hurt.
I tried them all: half-lying, sitting, kneeling, at the door, at the bed, at the wardrobe, at the window, with the belt, with the sheet, with the tie, knot in front, knot behind ... but nothing, I'm still alive.
it's a really difficult method to complete.

now I went to full hanging, the knots don't scare me.
I hope to make it and leave this world.

 

[InevitablePattern91]

It was CO poisoning using charcoal briquettes in a bucket inside my car.

Now I'm 100% sure it will be SN in a hotel room.

 

[Living_Hurts_so_Much]

I think I was just going to OD on a bunch of my meds or do what I did at 16.

Avoid insulin, eat candy, puke my guts up til I die. Not pretty, but effective.

I also tried to jump off an overpass in 2017, but felt the body of my cat who had passed a couple of years before rub and curl around my leg. Tried to convince myself someone else was on the bridge and possibly brushed me. There was nobody there. Felt just like a cat. Dropped to my knees in the fetal position and cried until someone (a friend) came to pick me up.

Anyway, after coming to SS, I realised there were more peaceful methods. I'll be using SN. I'd have preferred N, but I'm a 22 year old on assistance and can't afford that.

What about you guys?

I've always wanted to take something and go peacefully to sleep and just simply never wake up. A much more peaceful ctb than living in this has been.

 

[Tigeress Lost]

Overdoses of painkillers and prescription medication at least 20 times but vomiting saved me and one time a mate called the police they slammed my front door in No hope cause my stomach despite taking sickness tablets makes me vomit I'm a lost cat :(
I'm going tbh I just want to go to sleep and never wake up that what I thought would happen with the overdoses bt I woke up vomiting I just want peace but I'm scared of hanging or drowning myself I think this is the only place I have been able to say all this to anyone truthfully without hiding I am tigress that shouldn't have been born a human being that's what I feel :(

 

[SheJumped]

I always fantasized a gunshot wound to the head, however at the moment I'm set on partial hanging.

 

[Tigeress Lost]

Guys Any form of antihistamines such as Benadryl won't kill u worse things dry mouth and drowsiness and going to sleep but sadly no ticket for the bus
If I don't puke SN Is My choice and its easiest to get online but would it work if after vomiting u drink some more soz a little drunk 2nite been on the cider
