I want to tell people aroun me that I’m going to kill myself, just so they know, but it will seem like I want help/to be stopped and like I don’t really want to kill myself, you know? But I do want to do it and I will, I just want people to be aware I guess, be prepared? I don’t know if that makes sense.

Sorry for being blunt, mate, but if you do that, be prepared to take a trip to a psych ward.
Suicide is not one of those “just so you know” type subjects, ya know ?
Yep, that’s why I am trying my hardest to keep my mouth shut
If you kill yourself they will know. If you have specific things you want them to know leave a note or individual letters.
I think I need to write more notes actually, thank you
I’ve been typing them into my notes on my phone for everyone. No one knows my code but I figured when I do succeed in ending it I’ll leave a note with my passcode that way there’s no chance of anyone finding them till I’m ready for them to. Plus my hand writhing sucks
Also don’t tell anyone you don’t 100% trust. My sister knows I’ve thought about it and yes she tells me how she will die without me she knows. She doesn’t know how close I’ve come tho and she won’t know when I do actually decide to because I know she’ll try and stop me but I have told her about it.
Yes! I have typed my laptop password into my ipod notes and what documents to read (like suicide note)
That’s a good idea but I don’t like the idea of them going through my phone so I either need to kill my phone first or if mine’s a watery death, take it with me. I have the benefit of living by myself and my family live over an hour away so leaving letters isn’t a problem.. Thinking about it they prob wouldn’t know for a while maybe over a week even.. They are used to me going silent.
Good point. I will be living alone maybe I’ll get a computer and type them out there are a lot of things I’d rather not my mom or brothers see… also again my hand writing sucks I use to keep a journal. Now I keep a sp page. They’d find me within a couple days tho I work with my mother so when I wouldn’t show up Monday someone would come over
How about an old typewriter? Poetic and no additional data to be traced.. Actually quite fancy that idea for myself, so I do! I hope they aren’t expensive 🙁
Missinglink yes! That’s actually genius I too hope they aren’t expensive.
wanted and missinglink – It’s actually quite easy to encrypt/protect stuff on a computer.
You could protect your files with a password, or encrypt them (turn them into junk no one else can read).
I blathered it out one day I was drunk a few months ago. With the situation I’m in I think my family suspected it anyway. They have no idea what’s in my mind though. If they could reside in my mind for 5 mins they might wish me god speed.
Social media like facebook also lets you post things only you can see. If the profile is set to private you can type in anything you want and name a user to receive access in the event of your passing. A few other sites and services may have that capacity. Can be a neat last minute thing since you can save word files discreetly of any size, then paste them to a private profile in minutes, when ur ready.
That is a really good idea! Thank you
You take a major risk, some might not take you seriously and think you’d never actually go through with it. It only takes one person though who does believe you and intervenes.
Do not tell people. Family, friends, nobody but a stranger you’ll never see or never see again. Having everyone you know or everyone in your town is terrible. It makes things worse, at least in my experience. You will be turned into an outcast, no matter how many people “just want to help”. It’s like telling a friend something serious, and you trust that friend, and then that friend tells on or two of their friends, and so on and so forth until everyone you know, an everyone you don’t know, knows what goes on in your mind. People tend to avoid me now after a very serious attempt. The rumors are endless as well… it’s not an ideal situation
TBI – Exactly this !
Yes, I don’t want any more rumours spread about me, perhaps I should keep my mouth shut, thank you
It’s better to keep it internal unless you actually could do with some help. If ya just want to be gone and ya seroius then better to keep it inside.
Yeah, I think I’ll keep it to myself. It helps telling people on here 🙂
