I took the biggest leap in attempting to exit last night and it failed… obviously. So many things could have gone wrong or the helium wasn’t as pure as I was led to believe, but once I put the bag on, I was so sure I’d be a goner. Two days prior and I failed hanging myself nearly 30 different times/positions. I am in a state of regrouping as I will try until success… I can almost see my last resort being to fully hang myself (full suspension bs my failed partial suspension) but not until I try once more with the helium… and not the exit bag way, but if I can get myself to pass out, then I’ll be confident that passing out with the rope around my neck will complete the job just as painlessly as letting the helium finish me off. The problem might be if the helium isn’t pure, then I might not pass out like I expect to. So perhaps I start with hyperventilating into a plastic bag, then switch to a bag with helium… breathing in through my mouth and exhaling (outside the bag) through my nose. I could do this with my head below my heart, then lift it up really quick. I don’t know if this will work, but in my mind it has to.
Listen to how pathetically desperate I am? How did my life come to this? I hate how bad I want to die but it’s literally the only thing I can think about. I spent over a decade with ideation, one serious plan that wasn’t attempted, then my older brother took his life a month later. A couple years later and my life is awesome, then 2 months later it all goes to hell… and I mean hell. So I am absolutely convinced that this world doesn’t want me in it or that I’m not meant for it. I was so at peace with this notion when I pulled the bag over my head and still am. Just get me out of here already!

I’ve never seen the appeal of the exit bag, it just seems unnecessarily complicated and fraught with problems.
Agreed, but the appeal is definitely the painlessness and apparent quickness… which would be nice if it were to have worked. Just hope my new plan does the trick.
Well, if it’s any comfort, I hope you find the peace you’re looking for.
Me too… me too. Thanks
You seem to be really awful at committing suicide, maybe you should pursue another hobbie?
Wow, I’m really sure this wasn’t meant like this, but that’s a dick comment…
I too hope you find peace you’re looking for no matter how you find it, I feel for you. I read about those bags with helium I also never found it appealing at all. Also, I think the partial hanging things are unreliable. I think what’s his name, the kill bill guy David Carradine did it but who knows maybe it was luck or hard. Anyway, wishing you all the best god bless.
