suicide

Eat and drink what ever I want and let it take its time over the years. 100% effective.

Wait...I do that now...
 
Geez guys. Just cause you post in this thread a preferable way to die doesn't mean that you are planning or contemplating suicide.

I'm happy as hell and would never kill myself but i do have this amazing thing called imagination and the ability to ponder a hypothetical situation.

Lighten up yo.

(Fwiw dying in my sleep would be the best way to go but if I had to choose a hypothetical suicide scenario then I would want it to be quick and painless and affect as little people as possible)
 
I'd run a hose from my truck exhaust into the cab. Go to sleep, game over. But first I'd drive to the most remote place I could find to lessen the chance of someone finding me.

Dude, if someone is on the verge of committing suicide it's probably safe to assume that they generally don't have the mental clarity to logically think of the least disruptive way to take their own lives.

I disagree. My father had a list of birthdays of everyone he knew sitting on his coffee table. I don't think he was planning his greeting card purchases for the year. He didn't want to kill himself on someone's birthday.

Suicide is commonly linked with depression, which generally robs you of the ability to empathize with others.

Holding suicidal people to the same standards as those who are mentally healthy is just unfair IMO.

This was one of the ways my sister tried to kill herself. She drove up one of the canyons in the valley. Fortunately, someone living in one of the cabins up there saw her. Guess she didn't go to a remote enough place. He pulled her out, had some tea with her and sent her on her way.

Another one of the times she slashed her arm several times lengthwise. Fortunately my father came home from work for lunch (not something he did often) and found her.

In both those cases she absolutely would have died without intervention, and she had no reason to believe anyone would be there to intervene.

That was all more than 20 years ago. Her daughter is staying with us now for a summer visit and my sister will arrive this evening.

It'll be nice to see her.

Either gunshot to the head or there is this cliff by my favorite fishing spot that I would drive off. (Down in a blaze of glory and whatnot)

If you do this, at least fill the bed of your truck with hay and light the ****er on fire. How gay is it to kill yourself in some undramatic fashion like laying on the train tracks and waiting?

I'm just very very, very far-removed from ever really contemplating how I'd ever do something like this. Idealistically, I feel like I can leave some sort of tangible benefit on this world, whether its on the scale of my community, or the world at large. My time isn't up, and every second grants an opportunity to change the next.

If I ever decided that I wanted my life to end, i would want it to contextually end in an altruistic cause where there is some sort of benefit external to my life ceasing. Going to war, or trying to assassinate every evil person in this world.

This is largely a commentary on how fortunate of a life I have, and how blessed I've been since the moment I've been born into this world. It's kinda why I feel like its my duty to use these gifts towards the betterment of others. I hope I can be successful to any extent.

This is how serial killers are born.

got this neg rep from dalamon(he never engages me) about thinking this is a joke. suicide is no joke. and i should show some compassion to this dude blah blah blah blah blah. i would just copy and paste the neg rep comment. but there is some private info from original poster in it

but i am sick and tired of people jumping in front of trains. if you wanna kill yourself be my guest but don't inconvenience a train full of people

cut your wrist and send a timed email to the cops.
overdose on heroin and send a timed email to the cops.
swallow a bullet and the neighbors will call the cops.
hang yourself and send a timed email to the cops.


but don't ****ing jump of a building so little children might see your bloodied body.
don't ****ing jump in front of a train. not only do you inconvenience lots of ****ing people who then are stuck in a train for hours, but you traumatize the train driver (or whatever you call him) who sees your bloodied body spattered on the windshield.

if your gonna commit suicide dont ****ing inconvenience a lot of people


**** you dalamon!

Agreed. These greedy ****s have cost me several precious hours away from my wife and children. Death by train wastes thousands of combined hours for us victims of your suicide.

exactly what I was thinking when I read that.

But don't stop him, he's sharing his expertise with us all once again. He knows pretty much everything about everything.

thats no excuse for being an ******* to others.

thats same as saying sociopaths dont feel empathy their brain is wired wrong so excuse them if they go on a murderous rampage!

if depresion is a fault in the brain, so is sociopathy and all other forms of destructuive behavoir.

does logic elude you when you have depression?

That has not been my experience with depression or thoughts of suicide. Generally you think people will be glad you're gone, they won't care, or at the very least they will be better off. You can empathize with others just fine, it's seeing that they empathize with you that you can't comprehend.

I mean of course suicide is so complex that it's a different journey for everyone that is brought to it. Anecdotally we could all bring up several different examples.


I personally find the idea of suicide abnormal (i suppose it could be debated whether it's a practice abnormal to us based on our biology, or based on our society). Either way, it doesn't matter. We are either conditioned or born to consider it extremely taboo-- and for one to come to terms with it signifies some sort of mental deviation. Given that someone has come to the point of morally rationalizing taking their own life (which most would consider generally a morally irrational response in the context of modern society).

Due to this (and tl;dr), I consider those who contemplate suicide as dealing with some sort of psychiatric problem, and I can't blame them for not being more considerate of how they're supposed to take their lives. Not saying this is the truth, I'm just giving you my personal stance on this.

I have no issue with that. I just didn't think it was fair for you to lump the depressed in with psychopaths. Psychopaths have an inability to empathize. They might get depressed but most depressed people aren't psychopaths.
