am i making a mistake by giving my SN to my ex girlfriend?

[bb5055]

she broke up with me two days ago. i could ramble about how sad and empty it makes me feel but that's pointless. i've been having breakdown after breakdown about it and just being a lonely traumatized loser in general and i let it slip to her that i had some. i promised her id give her what i have and she'd still be there for me and id still be there for her.

i'm terrified. it's my out. it's the one source of comfort i have. i really want to live yknow. but life has been less than unkind to me and having that made me feel like i had safety in an exit. now she wants it and im scared of losing it and that i wont ever be able to find more. it was hard enough to find my small supply as is. a part of me wants to make a decoy bag to hand off to her now.

i feel like a fucking awful person for that. what if i do it in the future? how would this poor fucking girl feel knowing she thought she had helped me or saved me and that i lied and because she didn't catch that i'm dead? this is so incredibly selfish of me. i want to live so what's the big deal.

what do i do here? do i sacrifice such a big source of existential comfort for myself to make her feel better or do i lie at the risk of ruining her life long term? we may have broken up but she loves me tremendously. my death would ruin her and i can barely handle the thought of that

I honestly didn't read your post, but consider whether it's legal in your jurisdiction to give someone the means to kill themselves.

yes dude, you're making a huge mistake. Think of the social ramifications and shit.

I think they meant giving sn as in giving it away so they won't be able to CTB

Yeah, if you read that back to yourself, you sound extremely confused, back & forth about wanting to live but what if you ruin her life when you CTB. It was a bad move on many levels that you told her, however, there's always more where that came from, so I see no reason why you shouldn't just flush it together (because giving it to her is a bad idea for other reasons as everyone else is pointing out).

Yes, it's still a bit dicey imo.

no she doesn't want me to CTB so she wants to dispose of it, sorry i thought that didn't need to be specified

explain why it was a bad move on many levels to try and get help from someone for being suicidal and disclosing my method

You can always give her a Decoy bag and keep what you have, or keep for yourself half of it

 

[depressedkidiam]

maybe tell her you disposed of it yourself if you really would like to keep the option of using it in the future

i'm leaning towards decoy bag, but i'm also equally leaning towards just disposing of the real thing with her. it's a really tough choice. it took a lot of courage to tell her i even had it and her concern and desire to help me made me feel saved for a bit. but even still im scared to lose it and the security it brings me. i'm just scared ill do it impulsively on a night when things are real bad, before i give therapy a chance to work and before i try and rebuild my life more

If you are worried. That means you have a reason / want to recover. That's important l listen to your brain and flush it.

Definitely don't give it to her. Could open up potential to harm herself. Whether purposefully or accidentally. Flush it together. IMO

flushing together seems like the right move. thank you i needed to hear this. i do wanna recover really bad

If you want to recover. Please recover. Seriously. :) you got this! The fact you want to recover is very telling. Please don't do anything drastic. I understand if you want moral support for flushing. But that seems to be the best option. Good luck. I believe in yiu

SN can't be done that impulsively, as you'd need to fast for 8 hours first (or expect the attempt to fail).

Suicide should be the absolute last resort after you've already tried everything else. You already said you want to live, you already know the answer.
