Method why don’t people here usually consider CTB by carbon monoxide (co)?

[pinkiemuffinpop]

i spent some time researching methods and looking for people with the same idea as mine. in my opinion, suicide by carbon monoxide (co) is the "easiest," least violent, and most painless method. it can be done in a way that causes less suffering, both psychologically and physically. but then, why don't i see many people considering it?


low chances of survival, no pain, less psychological suffering because it's not violent. to me, it seems perfect. can anyone explain? /gen

I think because it is not as easy to do as many of the other methods. Once cars became too safe, that took the easy way to generate a lot of CO out of the hands of most people. Components are readily available to get to make CO, but it's not just easy to do without starting an unintended fire or not generating enough and so forth. Experts will know more than I , but that's what I've gathered reading online accounts.

i was thinking about doing it in a bathroom, sealing off all the air vents, and using two charcoal grills. what do you think? does this method carry the same risks of going wrong?

It's dangerous to other people. Carbon monoxide isn't only very deadly, it's also flammable. If you plan this method, please leave a warning to other people what you did. You could kill somebody.

Lots of people also fuck the charcoal burning part up, smoke themselves and then have to abort the attempt. Not a problem if you study correctly but reading this forum for a bit now I get the feeling careful preperation is not a given.

it carries the same risks of going wrong, yes -- for you, and others who find you. would advise against doing it in a bathroom.

i dont live alone+its flammable too. why not inert gas. its supposed to be better

 

[pinkiemuffinpop]

Eu não moro sozinho + ele também é inflamável. Por que não gás inerte? Dizem que é melhor

Eu mal tenho dinheiro para comida, então gás inerte não é uma opção para mim, infelizmente.

I live alone in a house, so there would be no danger to anyone else while I'm doing it... but as noted, even if I got it all right there is the potential danger to whomever eventually finds me and I wouldn't want to hurt anyone else, even if I wouldn't be there to ever know about it. It would have been so much easier 30+ years ago when all you needed was an older car and either a garage or a hose and good tape to seal yourself inside.

Because CO is flammable, and safer alternatives like nitrogen exist.

Lots of people here are on the younger side so might not have any easy source of CO (e.g car, lots of charcoal or other sooty items) nor a place for it to accumulate in.

CO is also considerably more difficult to set up than the typical sources.

It's also possible that you harm others in the process which is unlikely with solid substances.

Also, as mentioned by most other people, it's generally more dangerous than, say, nitrogen, due to flammability.
