Discussion Where are you on the Emmengard Suicide Scale today?

[The Unanswered Q]

8 right now, usually 5/6 though. Today's been awful and honestly don't know why.

 

[catfriend]

9! actively planning, minus the good-byes. still a ways off from my ctb date. :)

... still a 9, but anticipating it'll be a 10, come late friday evening. :)

 

[VoidButterfly]

9, already have the method and have been working on goodbyes. Just waiting for the date now as I have something I need to do first.

 

[polm]

9 for the last 18 months.

 

[FishRain3469]

I'm almost always at at least a 5. My line of work forces me to face and think about death all the time. It seems almost natural to me that I would think about death as a concept and as it relates to me on the regular, even if I'm in an "ok" place. I like the phrase "low key death affinity" a lot actually. Highest I've ever been is at an 8. During those times, indulging in my thoughts and fantasies was almost addictive. Make no mistake though, even though I'm not at an 8 anymore, I still think about it all the time.

Fellow Em Beihold listener??

 

[wham311]

Always a 9 even in my sleep, which is a million times worse than 10.

 

[NumbLittleBug]

Ahhhh hello my fellow "broken and broke!"

 

[deadhannah]

9 right now

 

[derekWest]

5 by now

I like the phrase "low key death affinity" a lot actually.

I have some difficulties to understand this sentence. Why "low key" ? "Death affinity" is understand as a hobby ?

Sorry, I'm French....

8.5

 

[|nobody|]

Probably an 8. Lowest I've been in the last year is probably a 5.5, in the last month since I made my decision it's probably been a 7 at lowest

My goal is 10. This needs to end.

8.5, started the day from 6 but it quickly escalated.

 

[purebliss]

I really like this scale for trying to place my emotions and level of distress.

Where are you guys today?

edit: a couple of people are saying 10, keep in mind this means that you're literally trying to kill yourself right now

[glass-petal]

I'd say I align between a 6 and a 7 most days—including today

 

[hardcoretechno]
