Spontaneous or planned?

[slickOne]

I hope I havent screwed up starting this thread,
but due to my circumstances theres one thing I would really like to ask you guys.
Is there a quick and clean method to end it all, without much planning or preparation, lets say during the next like 2-5 hours,
or would it be better to carefully plan it?

Im determinated but I am really lost,
I would really appreciate every help that I could get to accomplish my goal.

Thanks in advance.

I've been there where I've wanted to do it right away but this shit is hard. I think the successful ones are the ones who carefully plan it. Which is hard when things are so bad that you want to end it now. It's a vicious cycle for sure but I think you do have to prep to have the best chances at not only making it work but not just hurting yourself badly and still being alive.

Is it a matter of actual preparation or determination? Does it matter more to execute everything without the chance to fail or would it be enough to be willing enough to not screw it up? I mean there's a lot of cases of spontaneous ones..

Atm I really don't know how much I can take anything any longer & am trying to find the most optimal way without having to prolong my stay unnecessary..

 

[JoeFailure]

Probably both. Obviously I don't really know since I'm still here. I haven't even attempted it before, most days I just really want to and I did make the leap and reached out for N.

There are cases for spontaneous ones, but the results are mixed. I just don't want you to end up a vegetable or paralyzed or something where you don't even have the option anymore to try to CTB or live.

There's always a way to just up and do it. Many suicides have happened that way.

The way I see spontenaity working (without prior research) is when you have a personally acceptable method of known effectiveness immediately available. For instance, if you live a block from a tall bridge and jumping is acceptible to you, or you live near the ocean and drowning is acceptible, or you own a gun and shooting yourself is acceptible. Otherwise... Best do some research.

spontaneous is way cooler.

It's cooler in the movies. But I'm told the movies show people the wrong way to shoot themselves in the head. Not that I'd really know.

I feel like a spontaneous CTB can result in failure more than a planed CTB would.

Careful planning. It can be beneficial to get everything sorted then if you decide to wait, you can do it quickly. It is also a strange comfort knowing there's a way out.

Planned CTB causes you very strong anxiety. That's why even N isn't peacefull.

 

[Misanthrope]

I have careful planning in mind when it comes to the method. It's pretty much ready to go. However, the trigger will be pain that takes me past doubt or reason into impulse. Although at the moment I have some obligations.

Yeah. Even being here and thinking about suicide does that. You think it's an easy way out, a free pass, but oh no. It just makes you more alone.

I don't feel anxiety at all. If you are sure about it. You shouldn't feel that.

I used to feel anxiety 'thinking about suicide' when I was not sure I wanted to die. Now that I'm sure, I feel no anxiety.

Same here.

Hmm. Well, that tells me something. It's true that my mind isn't really made up. I feel like I need to make a few more last-ditch efforts to live first.

OTOH it's robbing me of the relief I felt when I came here.
