Discussion Which viable suicide method do you think has never been mentioned on this site?

[thrwaway99]

Falling on one's sword.

 

[omoidarui]

death by raw chicken (salmonella poisoning) and refusing antibiotics

Quick guaranteed method. Better than most methods honestly.


I think you would die or at least be knocked out by the time you hit the lava. Your body can't survive heat that hot for long.

What would be some tips to make it as painless as possible? Would the level of activeness of a volcano matter at all?

I have been planning my method with a lot of research. Amazingly, charcoal burning isn't something that is very well known or used in the US. Mostly Asian countries. It seems to be one of the most peaceful, less painful ways if you are diligent with your research. It definitely is the method I feel most comfortable with.

I like CO poisoning but don't like charcoal. It's seems somewhat complicated and not hard to screw up. I like the ideas of a generator and sulfuric acid + formic acid better.

 

[Suicidal4Ever]

Heroin overdose is very rarely discussed as a method, even though it's certainly as viable as ordering nitrogen cans, associated meters and then figuring out how to assemble an apparatus Brunel would be proud of in order to avoid brain damage.

How does one aquire heroin?

 

[onlyinsleep]

Get on corticosteroids for some chronic condition, withdraw and get adrenal crisis, die lol. But it's kind scary.

 

[Bazinga]

Theobromide overdose by eating dark chocolate. that or pseudosepsis

Titanic has been rebuilt as Titanic II and is supposedly set to sail her maiden voyage next year. I think it's a death trap.

[Pointlesslife]

That reminds me - ever hear of the Euthanasia Coaster? It's a concept design by some genius who claims that it kill you painlessly.

I like this idea. It seems like it would be fun way to go. Problem is one prolly has to terminally ill to get on it. Then again one can prolly find ways to make themselves ill enough to get a ride.

I would guess height and going headfirst would guarantee a pain-free experience. Proper research prevents piss poor preformance.

Is injecting an air bubble into a vein to stop the heart real or a myth?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_embolism is very real, and can be extremely fatal if severe enough, and contrary to prior statements is not especially horrible. You will be unconscious very rapidly. Chest pains and shortness of breath are probably no different to any other heart attack. IMHO, if you live in a country with needle exchanges I could see this being a very simple method and probably a lot easier than hanging if you can't afford fancy drugs. Of course personally if I was going to stick myself with a needle I'd rather it be loaded with a massive dose of benzos and opiates, but beggars can't be choosy.

A lot of long-term heroin addicts will have some experience with minor embolisms as often their hit goes foamy when it's cooked up, and if they're hard up enough very few will toss it as a result. Some will just try to pop the biggest air bubbles with a sterilised pin. Some don't even go that far, or they try not to inject the foam, but sometimes it's all foam. Sometimes this will cause a minor embolism which is seldom fatal, and barely noticeable when you're very baked. Sometimes not so much.

I was locked in a bathroom with someone who died like this. The fact that he was smashed off his face probably helped make it peaceful but nobody even realised until someone went into the bathroom and found him cooling on the toilet. Stupid me went inside to give him CPR and got locked in with him so someone would be present to talk to the police, because everyone else was afraid of being busted for possession. They also deadlocked the front door so when it became clear he meat I was able to break the lock on the bathroom door and had to go out a window.

Incidentally, CPR is horrible. People vommit on you. At the very least they puke up foam. They've almost always voided their bowels and bladder. A cool human mouth is one of the single most disgusting things on the planet to touch. And compression, if done properly, breaks ribs, and you can hear them crunching while you do it.

Other Methods:

1. I think someone mentioned this, but which is very popular here (and nobody knows how many fatal accidents are actually suicides, some estimates range up around 30%) and that's a deliberate car accident. Not dissimilar to falling. As long as you're doing over 17 meters per second (and even crappy cars can do twice this) and you hit something solid enough to completely arrest your momentum you've got pretty damn good odds of dying. If you don't want your body mangled you can even leave your seat belt on if you're going fast enough. If the deceleration is rapid enough it will rip some of the larger internal arteries, which is a primary COD in high-speed accidents and falls where there are no head injuries. You can make it an absolute guarantee by wedging something solid between the wheel and your chest. Obviously make sure it's not too thin if you don't want to be impaled. You could easily do the same thing with a bicycle; just pedal up to high speed going down a steep hill into a wall or a parked truck. You can even take the break pads off before doing it. No fancy helmet is going to stop that killing you especially as you're almost certainly going in head-first.

2. lots of people complain about being unable to get firearms, but gas-actuated nailguns are just as deadly and widely available. You can even hire them in many places. On that note If you have access to ammunition (much cheaper and more widely available than a firearm) a zip-gun that will fire a single round through a piece of pipe (even PVC) is extremely easy to construct. You can even drill open smaller rounds and use the powder, some wadding, and a bunch of ball-bearings to make a home-made shotgun in any closed pipe, again just drill a hole in the end and any old percussion cap (or the trigger for a 'party popper') widely available at many toy-stores will work just fine as a firing mechanism.

3. Repeated use of many over the counter medicines can be extremely fatal, and not necessarily in horrible ways depending on how they function. For example if you huff loads of albuterol for an extended period you will almost certainly die of heart failure. A lot of people with COPD/COAD go like this without even realising it (doesn't hurt that they're already prone to heart failure, but that just quickens the process) you probably won't even see the heart attack coming and unless a doctor is regularly taking blood samples and checking your potassium levels whose to stop it? You don't need a prescription to buy the stuff and chemists don't track sales so even if you're going through a bottle a day no one will be the wiser. If you live alone the odds you'll be resuscitated are pretty nonexistent. It's probably not a bad option if you don't want to have to work up the guts to 'pull the trigger,' on something final.

4. Electrocution, you want to ground the current through your heart. You could even set it on a timer after knocking yourself out with a huge amount of benzos. Painful but a hell of a lot more fatal than some methods people pick especially if you just grab a live wire with both hands since it will be physically impossible to let go until you're meat. This is also a potentially workable option for people who are being monitored and have limited privacy. You need an extension cord, a box-cutter and about ten minutes, though it may not be feasible in some locations depending on the frequency/amperage and volts of a common outlet, but with a little research you could do the same with your home fusebox (especially if you hook yourself up to the current before it runs through any safety switches, not that any of this is likely to trigger one to my knowledge as they generally trigger as a result of surges, such as when something live is dropped/thrown in water) and even in some countries with low power outlets many products, like microwaves, use transformers that are more than up to delivering a fatal shock, but that requires a lot of tinkering, or you can just buy a step-up transformer online and hook that up to a stripped cord, or even use a generator (you can hire them fairly inexpensively) if - for whatever reason - you do want to do the old 'live current in the bath,' thing which is about as fatal as it gets, but at least it's quick.

6. Also unpleasant, but if you smoke enough cigarettes in a short enough period you're a dead duck. Though when I say you need to smoke a lot I mean a hell of a lot. Probably not feasible if you're not a practised chain-smoker already.

7. Poisonous mushrooms are pretty widely available. Death caps don't have that name for fun, and although amatoxins are the definition of slow and horrible the one upshot is the process is almost totally irreversible. Some are even tasty and most retain full toxicity even after cooking so you don't even have to force yourself to eat something nasty. The main reason I'd consider this though is it would allow you to spend your last hours surrounded by friends and family (assuming you have them) and with access to top-of-the-line palliative care (morphine on-demand doesn't sound so bad for example) since the odds of a hospital being able to do a damn thing are very bloody close to zero if you wait four or five hours before calling them (pain isn't going to set in yet) and they don't happens to have a spare liver on ice, which is pretty bloody unlikely.

8. For the really desperate; drink a half a glass of isopropyl alcohol. Not pleasant, but dirt cheap and widely available. Also easy to do stealthily if people won't let go go any other way. Ironically some psyche wards even have the stuff lying around if they do art classes. Since 'artists alcohol,' is about 97% pure isopropyl.

Is it possible for adults to die by food allergy? if I tested high for shellfish allergy, could I just have a crabfest one night and CTB quickly?

 

[dramaqueen]

"Sarco" is a method not mentioned by the way :)

 

[MAIO]

Was just curious if they've all been already mentioned.

1) Going to the deadly lost tribe or cannibal tribe. Pretty self-explanatory, you go the right tribe they will kill you.

2) Swimming as far as you can in the Ocean. Without life vest/flotation device you can't last that long. As a bonus, it will probably be labeled an accidental death unless you leave a note, etc.

3) Death by explosives(super illegal)

Etc

 

[Pointlesslife]

Cut your penis off. It does have a large vein and thus would seem possible to bleed out to death.

 

[Bardia]

Deliberately inhale a chicken wing when alone. Bite off a large chunklet and simultaneously take a big, deep breath while attempting to swallow. Hurts a bit for a while, but then you pass out. If no assistance is nearby, then you die. Easy peasy.

Hi Does anyone know how to make a noose from a bedsheet. Will I need to cut the sheet in half to have enough?

 

[NextBusLeaving]

There are many plants which are easily sourced that are not discussed here.

 

[malummo]

botulinum toxin

 

[intothevoid]

Cream chargers! They're used for whipping cream or getting high (Nitrous Oxide, laughing gas, low doses). Apparently if you take it directly from the pellet instead of a balloon it can make your throat spasm and asphyxiate you. I actually considered that (I was addicted to balloons earlier this year) but the pressure that shit comes out must hurt, along with the fact that it might take a while till one makes your throat spasm.

Yes after day three you will sleep and you wouldn't even notice it. You will hallucinate severely from day three. Your appetite will cross all bounds. Your mind will shut itself down occasionally and you will be found with eyes blank just staring at something for no good reason 'cause the mind is grabbing a quick nap with the eyes open. Yes so your mind will put you to sleep every once in a while for a very short period of time. But this does not mean you will get REM sleep. You will never faint or go unconscious. See, when you don't sleep for one or two nights you develop a very strong urge to sleep. But if you deny your body sleep for two more nights then that urge goes away. From day 4 you will NOT FEEL SLEEPY AT ALL. But you mustn't lie down on anything or you will go to sleep. The idea is to deprive the body REM sleep. You can take 5 minute naps as many times as you want. Well, whether you want or not your brain will snatch these quick naps. But REM sleep happens when you sleep for around 4 hours. These quick naps will not cover up the REM sleep loss. And you will have to take certain medicines to keep yourself awake by force for the first few days.

A guy made a Guiness world record by not getting any REM sleep for 11 days. He had to take medical help to sleep after the eleventh day because the mind "forgets" how to sleep after so many days. The doctors said that if he had continued a day or two more, he'd have died, 100%

Evan The dracula, is known to have given death sentences to people in which the prisoners were sleep deprived. No one lasted for more than 7-8 days in the prison environment deprived of REM sleep. The guards then reported that the prisoners went half mad after day four and they didn't want to sleep anymore as they had no urge to sleep whatsoever. But for the first four days they had to be tortured to keep them awake. So all that you have to do is remain awake somehow for four days ! Rest would be easy. But don't do it around people 'cause you will really look like a vampire.

I have had less than 1 hour a night for 2 years. Less than 15 min a night for last month. No sleep at all for the past week. And you can dream in a 15 min nap. You can last longerthan you think tho no one believes me.iam quite insane tho.

You can do something called Micro sleep where the brain can shut down for a fraction of a second

I believe you. No one believes me that I cannot sleep at all. It's a living hell. My eyes become darker all the time. I mean no sleep causes dark circles under my eyes. You also have a lot of body aches, and severe sleep deprivation. I can barely function. No sleep makes we want to ctb!
