Twice but I think I knew I wasn't quite determined enough yet.

has it changed your opinion on suicide?

No. Only changed the method

 

[Sailfisher]

None with any serious motivation.

I don't know if I can say honestly, as a couple were gestures, and I even blocked out the memory of cutting my wrists once. I was really desperate a few times when I was younger, and before the internet I only knew methods from movies and TV which are pretty unreliable. I would put serious attempts at 4. That's why I'm here and why I'm taking my time. It's good SS exists - respect to the admins who keep it going and fight for our right to free thought and free speech. I never realized how much patience you really need before.

I've attempted 4 times.

I've attempted twice. Found out that I need a plan and execute it instead of just impulsive tries. Probably go better than last time.

Twice as impulsive gestures, though at the time I thought they were serious attempts. After the gestures, I regained hope of improvement.

Once as a serious but impulsive attempt. After that, I gained hope that even if I don't improve that I'll at least be able to tolerate life.

Once as a serious and rational, well-planned attempt but I misjudged how quickly people would realize I'm missing and how easily they'd find me, as well as how long the method would take, so I was found and "saved". After that, I haven't gotten hope back and I am so deeply tired. My soul is tired. I let my exterior life get worse because having a good life didn't make a difference anyway.

Now I won't try again until I'm 100% sure it would work.

I really tried once, that I almost died. But had a lot of times that I try to force my death... at least, my mind didn't enter with sincronization with my body, and nothing really serious happened. Just agony.

 

[LifeIsNotFun]

Once

 

[inconsequential]

13. Yeah, I know, I know.

10 of those attempts were under the age of 15; I was very dumb and could never quit trying to use fucking pills and other pharma overdoses.

The 3 serious attempts were two opioid overdoses (my metabolism doesn't allow for this via PO, probably IV though, learned my lesson), and by jumping into traffic. I ended up with a cracked skull & a few fucked up neck vertebrae.

OBVIOUSLY JUMPING INTO TRAFFIC WAS VERY FUCKING DESPERATE AND NOT WELL THOUGHT OUT.

 

[Suicidal4Ever]

Tried and failed 5 times before finding this site and twice after.

Twice would have worked if not found.
