Save your exit bag for halloween. Fill it with candy. Make sure you brush your teeth. I’m not mocking you, I just don’t want you to die. I’m reaching out to you, I’ve been there. Many people care about you. Remember them.
Excuse me for seeming rude with the comment I’m about to make. That’s not the tone I’m going for.
I know it’s the policy of this site to not give out any specific information with regards to suicide methods, & I guess that makes sense, but doesn’t that run the risk of someone trying it anyway, botching the attempt because they didn’t have sufficient knowledge & ending up in an even worse situation?
I can see how showing someone how easy suicide can be by giving them step-by-step instructions isn’t the best idea either, but I’d argue that making it harder/easier to acquire the information has a negligible effect on whether an attempt is made.
Hi Yeah. A lot of people come here looking for help, even if they don’t specifically as for help. So I think ifmay was just reaching out in case you were one of them. Definitely nobody wants you to botch a suicide attempt. To answer your question, I don’t think the flow control is necessary. But my research is purely theoretical, I’ve never tried it out.
One caution I have to throw at you: a few SP members have described how the exit bag does not work. Some people have said that helium tank manufacturers have started diluting the gas with oxygen to avoid harm to people.
I hope whatever you do works. If you feel like sticking around, even for a day longer, we’re all here ready to chat.
I’ve been asking myself the same question. I think it’s “safer” with the flow regulator (the gas won’t stop before you die) but I think it’s not essential. First, Exit international didn’t mention any flow regulator, doing without it seemed fine. Now, they say we must have one in oder to succeed our suicide attempt. My guess is that they want to make money by selling flow regulators, that’s it.
I personnaly won’t take any risk and buy one, but I think it can be done without it.
All you need is a rope, something sturdy to tie it to and to let go of everything and everyone in this life that cares about you. If you say there is nothing or no one, you are wrong, because I am right here. Even thought I don’t know you, I know somewhat how it feels. i’ve tried before, thankfully I was spared. I hope you come to the same conclusions I have, soon.
I’m not scared. I wondered about how scared I would be to do this, but as of right now, I’m not scared. I’m sure once I’m actually about to do it & my survival instincts kick in, they’ll be hard to overcome, but I can do it. It’s a weird feeling knowing that you’re really going to do it. I’ve thought about suicide off & on for years, but I’ve never really believed I was going to do it until now. I can’t do it today, because I don’t have all the supplies & my planning isn’t done, but I sometimes find myself anxious for the time to be here.
It’s often said that people feel most lonely before they commit suicide, but I don’t feel that way. I know there are people who care about me, but that doesn’t make me want to do it less. It just makes me wish there was a way to minimize the pain they feel because of it. I guess that makes me a bad person. I have a couple people who contact me every few days & ask how I’m doing. I can’t even reply to them because I don’t want to lie to them, but I can’t tell them the truth because I don’t want them to try to stop me. I kind of wish I had someone to talk to about it in my personal life who wouldn’t try to stop me, but I guess that’s just what people do.
Thanks for reading.
I tested a helium tank today. I just turned it on to time how long continuous flow would last with no regulator. About 5 minutes, with flow diminishing from 2 minutes onward. I’m not comfortable with that, so I’m going to the industrial gas supply place today to check prices for tank + regulator combos.
The industrial tank I bought today comes with a regulator used for filling balloons, but it’s not adjustable & I’m not sure if it’s flowing at the minimum 5 liters per minute. So, now I have more than enough gas, but I’m not sure if the flow rate is sufficient. Fuck.

Hello Yeah
I would like to speak with you in private, and anyone else who can share about the flow control kit, how can we do that? thanks

This shit shouldn’t be this hard.
