i have:
- 84x210mg ferrous fumarate (iron) tablets (17.6g)
- 22x500mg (11g) paracetamol
- 12x200mg (2.4g) caffeine tablets
and i can get access to 210mg of propranalol and more paracetamol and caffeine

is this enough to kill me? if not, what other over the counter medicines can i buy without being suspicious that can help this kill me? i'm 70kg

Overdose unfortunately rarely works, over the counter or not doesn't matter.

When I bought my drugs I visited over 50 pharnacies over several days, it was easy. The low buy limits are worthless without a bigger system that detects such behaviour, from banks or pharmacies themselves.

It doesn't change the fact that OD rarely works for CTB.

Sorry, but NO
1. ferrous fumarate
according to the below link ferrous fumarate potentially (not guaranteed) lethal dose is over 360mg/kg (120mg/kg * 3). you need at least 25.2g of ferrous fumarate for a very small chance

2. paracetamol
according to the @athiestjoe's guide paracetamol LD50 is 1944mg/kg. if you take 136g of paracetamol, 50% you may succeed and 50% you may suffer so much

3. caffeine
according to the below link caffeine LD50 is 192mg/kg. you need 13g for 50% success rate.

You look new in this forum. I'm sorry you are suffering and want to CTB. I wish we could die by random medicines. But it's not the case. Basically medications especially over-the-counter ones are designed as very safe. Overdose is very unreliable to commit suicide.
I want you to read information like this in order not to have failed attempts and make your life worse.

(I'm not good at finding English information. If my links are invalid or not trustworthy, please correct me)

You did a very good job, as far as I can tell.

And I agree. Trying to OD is really risky and probably NOT going to work.

To the OP -- I'm am very sorry you feel so bad. I understand completely, though, the need to leave all this pain behind. However, overdosing is NOT the way to do it. Unfortunately.

With the right drugs in the right dosage and plenty of time before being found, OD's do work. Unfortunately, none of those drugs are OTC and some of them are not even available anymore.

thank you all☹️ i have a noose made from rope that can support up to 190kg of weight but my problem is not knowing where to hang from; i ideally want to hang in the comfort of my own home but i don't know of any place i could tie rope to support my bodyweight and with outdoor hanging i don't know any completely private place that i won't be found in (so people can't prevent my death)
