What will be your last post on social media?

Talking about IG and FB.

 

[Blue Moon]

I don't use social media. I do have a facebook that I don't use. I'll be deleting it because I sure as hell ain't letting that be memorialized.

 

[sewersideman]

nothing tbh

 

[lizinha]

I do not plan on telling anyone

 

[Kassender]

I wont post anything either.
Really, id be scared to chicken out and realize no one reacted to my post...

 

[Fragile]

i deleted my facebook 5 years ago and never had instagram.

the closest thing to a final post on social media for me would be a goodbye thread here, the people on this forum actually mean something to me.

 

[Mariomcfly]

A delayed post saying " there is WiFi down here"! For some odd reason that alway fascinated me. I think I would do it to my closest friends and family via email to the ones the Would understand my stupid since of humor.

 

[WhyIsLife56]

I deleted all my accounts so there's nothing left to say on there. I sure as hell don't want it memorialized either.

I feel like goodbye post here are a send off from beautiful like minded people who just got lost along the way.

 

[NeCkDeEp]

Something in me wants to put the loveliest pics of my pets on IG as text only 3 hearts anyway I'm scared that someone who knows that I'm suicidal will get the hint and call the cops tbh

I think I'd use two Pink Floyd songs. Wish You Were Here, and Goodbye Cruel World. I'm not posting the lyrics to Wish You Were Here (can't be bothered, too long!), but here's the lyrics to the second song:

"Goodbye cruel world,
I'm leaving you today.
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
Goodbye all you people,
There's nothing you can say,
To make me change my mind...
Goodbye."

Edit: My friends and family know I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan, so even though the words are clear to us, (I'd only post song links, I wouldn't post the actual lyrics) I'd say how much I love these two particular songs. It wouldn't be clear to them until it was too late.

 

[TearyEyedQueen]

I barely use it so nothing out of the ordinary.

 

[TheDevilsAngel]

Have no social media at all....

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

Have no social media at all....

I don't either … I don't want to be bothered by people IRL & certainly don't want bothered on social media.

I use social media very little, but if I would post something, it wouldn't be anything conspicuous, as my plan is to make my demise look like an accidental overdose.

 

[DoodleBug]

I don't want anything corny. I was thinking about just posting a post with a file stating my most nagging, yet least controversial thoughts, A statement for like 4-5 pages that is not supposed to either hurt anybody or expose my darkest secrets. Of course, still, that'd happen only if I was 100% sure that I succeed.

Years ago, before my only real attempt thus far, I've posted a song "Wires" by The Neighbourhood and wrote that I'm going straight to hell (part of the lyrics). A Somewhat cringy, post yeah, but it wasn't a straight-forward presage of suicide. I didn't really have that many people added on facebook, I still don't, so it went by without anybody noticing. After I survived I could just silently delete it.

This, minus the last bit.

I have accounts but rarely use them. I wouldn't want some do gooder catching onto my plans and trying to stop me, so I wouldn't post anything. I setup a legacy contact so I'll let them decide what happens to those accounts when I'm gone.

I think you should do it.

Talking about IG and FB.

[Marz]

I will make a post so people donate to my family cus we're kinda tight on money at the moment.

 

[LittleJem]

Thanks for asking this - it's helped me draft it......I'm going to set up a legacy contact, and ask them to post a final message after I CTB, once close people are informed directly.

It definitely needs editing - I am always a bit long winded!

I know it's long - if you have the time to read it, gentle comments appreciated. Including any way I can stronger speak for assisted dying and euthanasia:

Goodbye message from me:

If you're reading this, I have gone and I write this with love and good wishes for all of you reading. I wish you all happiness.

I've been quite public about how much I've been suffering now for a number of years. This ending is my long-considered choice, as nothing has helped ease this suffering. I am relieved. Or at least I hope I am.

The illness I have suffered from my whole life has become too much to bear. After months and years of suffering, I have made my final choice. I strongly believe as a grown adult of [insert age] I have the right to make my own decision, and I wish for everyone the right to choose when they die. I believe this is part of a compassionate society, which would not force people to suffer against their will and would give them the chance to say goodbye to loved ones and friends and be respected in their decision.

Many people attempt suicide only to seriously injure themselve. This is a product of our society that does not permit people the space to make their own decisions. I have been researching my method for many years, to ensure it is effective. This is a privilege of my education and resources and not everyone is so lucky. In addition, many attempts are in desperation, because people are suffering so much, they don't know what to do. We could end that - the peope jumping in front of trains etc, if we simply had a humane policy on assisted dying and euthanasia. Believe me, if you are experiencing severe mental illness for which treatment brings no or little relief, you would understand that this is suffering, as much as any pain or other illness.

I am not blaming anyone for this - it is entirely my choice, and in my opinion it is genetic, as are many mental illnesses. I have tried many treatments to no avail. On my website, I have put evidence for mental illness being often genetic (as well as linked to trauma). Often, people do not understand depression, but the depressed brain is different.

For me, mental illness has been like cancer, only without an end date in sight. I wish it did have an end date, and I have therefore chosen to end this suffering. I have endured it and suffered it for many years, and it is getting worse all the time, and my life becoming more ruined by it every day. The people who know me closely know I have been suffering for many many years. I have constant suicidal thoughts, anxiety and fear, as well as misery. I don't want to put the people I love through this, and have isolated myself more and more. I also no longer want to put myself through this suffering.

I have spent a long time enduring this, not wanting to hurt members of my family, but there are only so many years of this I can take.

If anyone wants to see the extent of this daily suffering, the medications, plant medicines, supplements I have tried - see this website. have also put photos up from my life there, and maybe some stories from happier days, as well as links to death positive sites. [this I am going to create, but I haven't done it yet].

Thank you - those of you I know a little or a lot, for the memories, experiences. Of course, I have written letters/emails for my closest people.

If you have any particular memories of me you'd like to share, or words you'd like to send to my family, particularly my mum, who I'm sure will appreciate messages of sympathy - you are welcome to post them here or email them to [insert email address] and they will be passed on.

 

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

I will post a song related to death on Fb. It's not about suicide.

 

[BPDbitch]

The last thing I'll be doing is deleting all my social media. The thought of people I barely know/dislike posting condolences on my fb makes me gag.

 

[Circles]

[PeaceisallIwishfor]

Probably a cover video of me singing a sad song lol

 

[Numbtopain97]

I don't have any social media.

 

[C_F]

I was considering just posting a heart...

 

[Wayfaerer]

Never used social media, so nothing.

 

[domedune]

If I were to post something it would be lighthearted. I don't want to make people sad.

 

[Ame]

If I were to leave a final message, it would be something simple I think. Just a brief note to express my gratitude and wish everyone well. To be honest, I don't even know if it would be read as a "farewell" notice until after the fact. It would probably be for the best to keep it earnest, yet ambiguous.
