how come self immolation isn't more common. It's extraordinarily painful and brutal for those who will find your burnt body but it's very effective and incredibly easily to do. Has anyone considered this method before?

Hey Guest,
As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

Yes someone has and quickly changed their mind after hearing that it's one of the most painful things that you can experience and takes longer than you think. I don't recommend it.

It's like, the most metal thing ever, but you always risk spending a while as a burned up version of the guy the Metallica song ''One'' is about.

I briefly considered this but the thought of the excruciating pain is too horrendous to imagine. Plus, what if you somehow survive and end up hospitalized and on life support forever which is a genuine possibility?

If you see those vids where people are setting themselfes on fire; you will hear their screams of pain and the way theyre trying to escape the fire. Thats nothing i would like to experience. Doing it with pure koffein sounds more peaceful.
Love yall
I ve posted this in another thread where someone considered this.
This would be one of the worst methods to choose and should not be attempted. I have experienced 2nd degree burning and i have never experienced such pain in my life. When I arrived at the hospital they immediately injected morphine and put me into a coma. I had surgery to remove the necrotic tissue and was lucky I did not need skin transplants.
It would take minutes until you die and the pain and agony will be unfathomable. If you survive this it will be excruciatingly painful and if you don't pass away in the hospital, life will be very worse.

Self-immolation is actually a leading suicide method in Asia and Africa. For example, in Iran 25%-41% of suicide attempts are by self-immolation. It's especially common among young married illiterate women, who often are trying to escape domestic violence.
The fatality rate for self-immolation is 60%-70%, which isn't particularly high considering it's one of the most painful methods, with failed attempts resulting in excruciating pain and permanent disabilities.
Most suicidal people will be comparing self-immolation against other more lethal methods, including firearms (90% fatal), hanging/suffocation (84.5% fatal), drowning (80.4% fatal) and jumping before moving object (78.5% fatal). There is also a long list of other methods, such as SN poisoning or inert gas asphyxiation, which can be highly lethal with the right knowledge and preparation.
Most people in the developed world are choosing suicide methods that are more effective and/or less painful. If other means are available, self-immolation just doesn't have much going in its favor, so it's a method of last resort.
I'm considering it cause I'm near last resort. I've tried jumping but I don't know if I can go through with it considering how afraid of heights I am. If charcoal poisoning doesn't work for me I'll consider self immolation more but I'd like to try CO poisoning a second time if possible
Pain is temporary. Death is forever. I can't explain to you the torture I'm going through in life I'd do anything to escape I just want to be dead. I'm not even mentally unstable. I'm just in very awful physical pain
Certainly seems effective if the fire doesn't get put out. Maybe if u took an extreme enough dose of opioids to not feel anything at all you could actually make it work? I don't know if anyone tried or if there are drugs strong enough for that. Or something that would render you unconscious like anaesthesia.
There are no drugs strong enough to help with being burned alive the best thing to do would be to take a benzo so the panic isn't as intense but when you're being burned alive it doesn't make too much of a difference. I might consider this method as a plan c if i end up burning myself to death I'm aware it will be torturous until death. However pain is temporary death is forever. That's what's important
That awful to think about. People in that situation just need to be out of of their misery. Being put on life support is fucked up considering they were already suicidal to begin with

I understand and I certainly don't judge you. Ultimately it's up to you. I was just sharing my experience/opinion. And like I said, should you survive this, life would possibly be worse but if you succeed and are willing to go through with this - no one can stop you. I just wanted to point out the risks because there are some that could lead to failure or harm others.

IMO, the only thing that matters is the reliability. In fact, I think pain is a good trade-off for guaranteed death: one last period of intense suffering, followed by eternal peace.
