I have suffered with depression and suicidal feelings for as long as I can remember, but something has always held me back when it comes to ending my life.
I have made several attempts, but have failed so far.
I can’t be bothered to write about what has happened to me, because I have tried every form of therapy there is and it doesn’t work and I have never really felt any other way.
I’m just fed up with the lack of understanding, the patronising advice given by therapists and family and the accusations of self-pity or attention seeking with regards to suicide.
I don’t feel sorry for myself, in fact I don’t really feel at all and as for attention seeking, well fuck that. I’m not planning this because I want pity or attention, I want to be left alone and this is the only way to make that permanent. I can write this on here, because from the posts I have seen, people here generally seem to think the way I do and this is the only place I feel comfortable writing this.
I don’t fear death. I don’t believe in an afterlife, but I believe we return to the state we were in before birth, ie a non existence. Basically what I mean by that is I won’t know I’m dead so it won’t matter.
My planned methods to make sure this time are either the exit bag or ********.
I have tried cutting, overdoses and drinking bleach, but they all went wrong and only caused more physical problems. I would prefer something pain free and unlikely to leave me alive and brain damaged or with other physical disabilities, which is the last thing I need.
******** is incredibly hard to find and there are a lot of scams out there, so I would appreciate some advice if anyone has any.
The exit bag is also increasingly risky as helium canisters in particular are now often being sold with lower rates of helium and higher rates of oxygen, due to the growing number of suicides with this method.
I would appreciate any thoughts or ideas from like minded people.

reading this left a sad feeling in my heart. mostly because I can relate to almost everything your saying.
death for me doesn’t matter much either and I too have tried numerous amounts of times to take my life, but have failed. I ended up in hospital and than physio to learn how to walk again because my attempt failed that badly.
I don’t have any advice for you on how to go about killing yourself and if I were to be honest, if I did have than I wouldn’t share only because I don’t want you to die.
I don’t know you at all, but I do know that your life has a greater meaning to what your giving it and I do know that there are people out there who truly do care for you. it’s hard to accept that when you have done such a good job convincing yourself that it’s not true, but believe it is true. and it’s true because I care about you. and I want you to live. and I believe you have a beautiful heart.
please try and re think what your contemplating on doing. I might not be of much help, but i can be a good listener if you need to vent
