  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

Will commit suicide or die tryin’.

Hi all. Over the past few months I've been donating possessions, closing accounts, deleting files, making half-hearted CTB plans. In the back of my mind I held hope that things would get better, I could overcome the (self-imposed) obstacles in my way, I could discard the poison that mocked me every time I glimpsed it in the bathroom cabinet. That hope was killed recently. Life made it clear the hole I dug was far too deep to climb out of.

Life circumstances are happening to me with increasing speed and increasing negativity. It's clear it's time for me to CTB. I leave behind horrible, horrible mistakes, shattered relationships, decimated bank accounts, a dilapidated trailer with a leaky roof and toilet falling through the floor, the painful sting of knowing what I could (nay, should) have done with my life, and a probation officer who's going to very annoyed with me.

Squishy stuff:

That said I'm eternally grateful for Sanctioned Suicide and its wonderful members. That includes you, reading this. You all have shown such compassion, empathy and understanding. Your willingness to share such personal trauma, such intimate details of suicides, moved me in ways I didn't think possible. This site is truly a oasis in the harsh desert that is now the Internet.

Nuts-and-bolts stuff:

I'll be following Stan's SN guide of course, with a few tweaks. The biggest: no antiemetics. I found a source but it was too late. So this'll be a bare-bones, white-knuckle approach. I'll have backup SN solutions in (the likely) case of vomiting. This will be done in a hotel room. And if this doesn't work, if I wake up strapped to a psych ward hospital bed, I'll find a way to report my oopsie.

This site has helped me out so much, I'd want to pay it back in some small way by documenting this trial. I'll be posting my progress as others have in their own final threads. The plan, times EDT:
  • 08:00 Begin fast
  • 14:00 Cease drinking
  • 15:00 600mg Ibuprofen
  • 15:30 800mg Tagamet (Antacid)
  • 16:00 Drink 1 SN solution (25g in 50mL water). If vomit, immediately drink another solution. Repeat as needed.
@Hasssssuùuu : If I'm not heard from in a few days, could you please ban me?

Thank you for reading. Much :heart: to you, wherever and whenever your travels take you.

Thank you for a such an entertainingly well-written goodbye thread. I'm sorry you're at this point, and props that you tried; even if you didn't win the battle you were worthy of the victory. I hope it goes peacefully and well for you, oopsie-free, and that your PO gets to be very annoyed. I'm surprised, however, that you're not doing it in the trailer -- unless you're worried it will decrease the value?

Thank you so much everyone! I was deeply moved by the well wishes.

I feel surprisingly...not nervous. I've been planning this so long. I guess "resigned" is the best way to describe my feelings.

Thank you for a such an entertainingly well-written goodbye thread. I'm sorry you're at this point, and props that you tried; even if you didn't win the battle you were worthy of the victory. I hope it goes peacefully and well for you, oopsie-free, and that your PO gets to be very annoyed. I'm surprised, however, that you're not doing it in the trailer -- unless you're worried it will decrease the value?

Ha ha about the PO. I live with someone in the trailer so I can't risk being discovered. I'm not worried about the trailer itself—it's so dilapidated at this point my landlord should pay me to rent it.

It's 12:03 here, I've been fasting since yesterday evening. Stomach is grumbling wanting to know where breakfast and lunch went. Sorry tummy, today's going to be a little different...

Update: I'm in the hotel room. Just took 600mg ibuprofen. Measured out 3 count 25g SN+50mL water solutions. Good Lord, 25 grams is a lot!

Funny aside: literally as I was walking out the door two cop cars pulled up. I thought they were on to me and it was a "wellness check", meaning I'd be in jail for probation violation.

Nope, pure coincidence, they were there for someone else. I almost didn't need the SN because I nearly had a fatal heart attack.

Edit: 15:45
Just took 400mg Tagamet.

30 minutes until my bus arrives.

Nervous, but not as much as I thought I'd be.
