And this is why I have never attempted.
*If you are squeamish, do NOT watch this video*
*Video From Inside Edition:
There was also this lady IRL who I’d see all the time taking the same bus I do in downtown where I used to live. Her face was all blown off too. She had aimed the barrel into her mouth. She apparently attempted and survived, and now her face, and i’m assuming her throat, trachea, mouth etc all messed up.
I’ve known many people who have attempted. All of them lived. The ONLY person that succeeded was a friend of a friend. I’ve never met her but she was the only one to have done it right.
It’s scary when even when you want to die, it’s not easy to do it cleanly, quickly and painlessly. There is like a 95-99% failure rate.
There was also someone here on SP who had attempted to shoot himself with a shotgun. I forget his username. But he sounded like an intelligent person. He wasn’t some moron who just picked up his gun and aimed willy nilly. He carefully aimed at his ribs but it hit his ribs so the bullet did not strike his heart like he wanted. He called 911 and did survive. He posted on SP after he left the hospital.
Do you know of anyone IRL who attempted and lived? (and I don’t mean using pills bc those attempts rarely ever work).
