Hi all. I'm planning on moving on this weekend and have my method sorted (partial) and have found my sweet spot. I've got my location and an instrumental playlist all set up.

My two questions are this.

1) To leave a note or not to leave a note. I don't have much in the way of friends/family and the one person I care about more than anybody on earth is the one person I don't want to receive a note as I'm scared she will blame herself.

2) Finding the body. Nobody has a key to my place, all sets are with me. I don't have visitors regularly and have no deliveries due and don't receive much in the way of post. I know it is irrational but I have a fear of my body being left long term and rotting and the mess that will leave behind.

How would you guys go about this?

If you think the person you care about will understand your decision, don't leave a note. If not, it's probably better to say something. If you worry about your body, send a delayed email to the local police or something

I'd say leave a note. For the police and for the family members.
And do the delayed email like @overcomingfear suggested (create two email addresses and time the same email from those two account just to be sure they receive it).

Good idea, I was looking at that earlier this week and completely forgot.

My reasons regarding the note is I don't want the person to feel responsible. Our relationship ending is a part of the reason but there are other reasons also and I don't want her blaming herself. I'll be careful with the note I guess

No family to worry about, just my ex partner

Yeah, I'm definitely going to be sensitive and lie in mine.

You could send a letter via post to your next door neigbor telling them to call the police. I don't know. Sorry to hear it is really bad.

Leave a note. No matter what you think it's the last link to you and being able to know that what you did was of sound mind and spirit. You have no idea the amount of pain and grief that comes along with the questions that come after the fact. Trust me on this one. As far as finding your body maybe try leaving your door unlocked the day of in case someone decides to stop by and check on you if they should but please leave a note big enough to read warning people of what's inside.
All the best in whatever decision you take.
