I can't decide. Either I will hang myself at a nearby park at night for strangers to find me and call police in the morning or I will hang myself somewhere far away deep in the woods where they may not find me for a while. Would it be better for my family to know I'm dead right away? Or do you think it'd be better if they got used to me being gone while I was just "missing" before they know I'm actually dead? I don't have many loved ones but I want to make this as painless as possible for them.
As someone who has experienced CBT loss and finding their loved one:
- Don't submit your loved ones to wondering where you are/going out searching for you, especially if they're not used to you
not responding for days at a time. Either way, leave a note to someone accessible so they know to contact emergency response.
- Try and make it to where it is first responders who find you. Don't put that on your family, trust me. They will
never forget that moment, ever.
- Hanging is a less gruesome method compared to a firearm, so that's good. But, make sure not to leave them with absolutely nothing--no final words, photos, passwords, etc. They
will need and want them.
