It'd be a hell of a lot less scary than shooting yourself in the head innit. And maybe relatively painless, I mean considering alternatives.

no, don't do that
I spent years thinking that way........ things can change, life can get better......
So even if you are thinking of doing it, please don't....... please just hang on, because your life can become all that you want it to....

I don't intend to do it (at this time at least). The information could potentially save someone some pain.. I mean if they choose to go down this road, this method might be easier and less painful than jumping off the golden gate bridge (hitting water at that speed = shattering your bones that then pierce your vital organs... or maybe you won't be 'successful', plus how long would it take your brain to stop activating... Not that nature isn't full of hyena eating the intestines of some poor animal while its still alive.
But I'd research the hell out of it first (if you do it wrong you can end up surviving only with brain damage apparently). I'm not advocating anything, I guess I should suggest don't kill yourself; I'm tired of having a negative impact on people.

there was this couple, philosophers, who apparently killed themselves. she was suffering illness and he woulndt live on without her, so they just did it.
pretty nice idea, to pass on with that special one.

wMw, that monk was a fucking hero! he may not have led to change, but he died as a martyr. I don't see how you can say that's not a good way to die. Unless you only refer to the method, without tinking about the reason for it.
ijonspehces, that is a really cool idea. They really must have been devoted to each other. It'd be cool if you could remember their names, so I could read about it in more depth, though.

ok, browsed through the old newspapers... they were Dorine and Andre Gorz. the article mentions another couple who did this before. Arthur (also a writer) and Cynthia Koestler.

Considering that as a comunity xltronic has had at least two suicides. Can we not discuss this subject/erase threads. If anyone is considering killing themselves there are people out there who can help. I think what you are doing here is irrasponsable and stupid.
I think it would be a good idea to have a perminant thread with a list of peole who can help in such situations.

i dont see why we shouldnt be allowed to talk about suicide here. everybody has the right to end his life, whether we acknowledge their motives or not. i dont want this to be stigmatised. and it is a serious thread.

It is certainly a sensitive subject, but this is a good form of euthanasia, especially considering that it's illegal to take your own life in most countries. No-one knows the full circumstances of the xlt suicides, except for those who took their lives. Ignoring suicide as a subject wont solve the problem.

about it being illegal... if one fails at suicide, does one go to prison? all the more reason to do it right the first time

you guys aren't allowed to talk about suicide. stop.
i'm going to suicide myself, then I'm going to suicide all of you-- all for negging me out so bad.
*********
but seriously-- considering the population problem, the ecocide, and the established idiocy of most human beings-- suicide is a solution.

apparently in the u.s. suicide is not illegal anymore or it's considered a "common law crime"

if you decide to kill yourself, why not do it the stealthy way, pre-write and post date many post cards, and pay an agency to send one once a year to your family and friends, then go off and kill yourself in a remote place, in a far away land (make sure no one finds your body) that way you protect your loved ones because they will think you are out traveling, and sending post cards every now and then...
