Why do some people do it on impulse while others are more calculating about this?

I was wondering as well. I could never set a date for myself, it would be too nerve-wracking but then again maybe I'm not in enough pain. I'll be able to only do it impulsively, one day when I'm just feeling really down.

 

[its-about-time]

Mix of both for me. Have consistently decided I am okay with decision to ctb, but rarely feel acutely suicidal enough to actually do it. So I have prepared everything, secured my method, and am waiting for an impulsive suicide. Some moment when I feel motivated enough to go through with it. Everyone has their own way but I'm sure I'm not alone.

I dont recommend doing it on impulse. You can fail easily and end up in psych ward.

Because the ones that do it on impulse are too desperate as they cant get anything good to kill themselves with, dont want to die but want attention or they dont realise killing yourself without the right stuff is hard to achieve so they just down 20 melatonin pills and think they'll die.

Impulse = cry for help or in the head of the moment, which doesn't usually have the intended results

Planned out = More likely to succeed

I have a bridge picked out that I would have to drive a ways to get to. I discovered what I can do. I can just go to "visit" it. It would take the stress off because I wouldn't HAVE to die that day.

Sorry man, that's rough. Without N, I'd probably be in the same position.

What if n fails? Does that happen?

From my research is the most failproof method. If not found one is pretty much certain to die, vast majority of times within an hour.

How does it work? You just drift off? You going to watch a movie while you wait?

Like an anesthetic, you fall asleep in couple of minutes after consuming.

Minutes? Wow. God that sounds great. A person in my other thread said there's no suppliers at the moment. Any foreign countries where I could get it OTC?

Not sure, there is a chapter in the pph.

And it is disgusting bitter! You need an atiemetic, otherwise you will vomit.

Impulse ain't a cry for help. It's desperation to end pain. You can plan all you like but too succeed in suicide (something all of us have never succeeded in obviously) is hard. I've lost confidence after many failed attempts. Yes I could jump or go infront a train but haven't got the balls for such barbaric methods.

I have never tasted it before. But I have watched a Swiss documentary about euthenasia. This patient would who have taken the N sais it was very bitter.

Chemical bitter. Quetiapin is also so bitter but in a chemical way.

I don't know what to think of as an example

It is hard to answer the question as we do not know what is going through peoples minds when they are about to ctb. I think that maybe people do it on impulse when they reach a point of desperation and they cannot take the pain of living anymore, all they want is to be free from this life.

Maybe a lot of the people who do it on impulse, do not have access to a peaceful method and have to resort to a painful and risky one. I think that if someone has a peaceful method they are able to be more calm about the process and they are able to stick to a set date.

 

[HubbaHubba]

In my case, I plan it (or "calculate" to use your term) because:

1. I tried to fix the problems that led to my depression for years. Unfortunately, nothing panned out. It's getting worst actually.
2. Want a method that won't traumatize others and the most peaceful.
3. When I CTB, then my loved ones and pets are taken care of.

So lots of planning on my side.

The funny thing is that I now have more motivation and energy when planning these than before.

 

[locked*n*loaded]

For me , I have an analytical mind and I can't help myself but to try and cover all bases. I like to be in control. I don't really know if the success rate is the same for either type. I think the best way is whatever works for you, dependent on your personality, makeup, all that stuff.

Indeed.
