Yes, but only to my family because they are the only ones who deserve an explanation and a final goodbye from me. They have done so much for me, it would be incredibly cruel not to. I don't owe anyone else shit

One of the times I was planning to attempt, I had entire journals for the most important people in my life that I was going to write an entry for each day until I passed. My most recent attempt I didn't write anything, I was too desperate to get out to plan ahead at all. This time all I'm going to leave is a way to contact people that need to be notified that my family doesn't know and maybe a few simple instructions on belongings that I want to go to certain people.

This is one of the things I'm currently grappling with as I get closer to actually fleshing out my CTB plans.
There's a side of me that wants to spam everywhere, kind of like a last cry of help or attention. I know it won't even last forever, but sometimes it's a morbidly comforting thought to think of people scrambling. I'd only ever leave a note post my death, I wouldn't give anyone a chance of reaching out by that point.
But at the same time, is it even worth it? I already know none of the few people in my life will even be affected for more than a week if I'm lucky.
Ultimately, they have other shit to be doing, and other shit to live for. They don't have time for my fucking notes.
Plus- what would I even say?? Would I be condescending and show my true bitterness? Or just, explain some things rationally before letting go? I don't know. I don't think words can ultimately describe it.
But I might leave one for my mother. I think she deserves something to hold onto.

No. On my desk I'll just leave my life insurance documents and my last will and testament with instructions to my mother on how to claim my finances after I'm gone

besides request for cremation, im still conflicted, i feel like if i leave a note itd be just explaining what/who NOT to blame. there was a note from the 70s i read recently which put things cohesively, i dont feel feel the same as the person who wrote it as we didnt live eachothers lives im not saying that, but the note was straight forward and would be similar to any note i plan to write if i was smart with words, explaining this is my choice etc and to acknowledge peoples kind efforts. i dont know if its a weird thing to do, looking at someone elses note from years ago as a guidance, but it practically fits what i want to say in a well put way.
