Suicide

[skyfall]

I want to do it and I'm considering which method I want to choose. Which method would you choose for suicide and why?

 

[DivineSpark]

Well, I dont have access to firearms. There are no high buildings in my city and I dont trust overdosing methods. My chosen method would be train. Yes, it is gory, it is brutal and gives some traumas to driver, but what else can I do?

 

[Forveleth]

I have a rope and a steel beam in my basement.

Which method would you choose for suicide and why?

First of all - is it in any way relevant to your choice? Just curious...
As for the answer, i'm prepared for 2 methods should one of them fail.
Main - inert gas method with modified face mask
Secondary - got nice jar of SN. No antiemetics tho....

Yes, I'm considering which suicide method I want to choose to commit suicide.

Shouldn't they be chosen based on YOUR preferences and circumstances like availability of certain items in your area, not other people's? I mean - for example, i'd love to have a gun ctb but where i live they are not readily available.

I don't want to use poisonous gas to commit suicide because such suicide methods are not that reliable and I am afraid of the consequences of failing them. I don't want to buy SN because I already find out other painless suicide methods, for example, partial hanging. So I don't need SN.

I also wish to be gone and I'd personally choose to cease existing in the most peaceful way possible as all I wish for is no more pain and no more suffering, I just hope for a death like falling into an eternal dreamless sleep where finally I can be at peace and where all is finally forgotten for me and I see so much cruelty in how I cannot just have a death like that. I see so much cruelty in how the suffering and torture of human existence is seen as to force and prolong no matter what, I wish I could just choose to never suffer ever again, for me non-existence truly is the only peace.

Excuse me but are you a robot tbh?
I may do it next week. My survival instincts are hard to overcome though.

Inert gas is not poisonous. You die because the inert gas pushes away the oxygen and you need that to live, not because of the inert gas itself. Big difference. An inert gas often chosen for this method is nitrogen because it's cheap, easy to aquire and plentiful. The air you breathe right now while you read this is ~78% nitrogen. It doesn't react with you. It's just kinda there. Hence inert. It's good that our atmosphere is mostly inert gas because oxygen is very reactive and there would be probably massive fires constantly otherwise, which for a part of Earth's history, was likely true. When correctly done, you don't notice anything as your body has no good way to detect the absence of oxygen, just the buildup of carbon dioxide, which when correctly done, this method also prevents. You feel like you're breathing normal air but actually are dying of hypoxia. There's videos on youtube what dying of lack of oxygen in e.g. great altitudes is like. It's quite insidious and you're not really aware you're dying.

In the US, recently the first inert gas execution was done, with nitrogen. It did not go smoothly because naturally, the guy panicked and apparently tried to hold his breath, which would lead to carbon dioxide buildup in his blood (the one thing your body *can* detect) and probably triggered a hypercapnic alarm response. IMO, it's excessively cruel to murder somebody like this. But as a suicide method, it can be very peaceful and quick, big difference being that you choose to move into the oxygen-free enviroment voluntarily and don't try to hold your breath as long as possible. The Sarco pods that got quite a bit of attention also work with inert gas.
