There is no 'good' suicide.



You just end up hurting various people or disabled in some way.

Well ok, talking in theory;

You get hit by a car it might just run over your leg or your arm or just paralyse you for life so you can't move or talk which would be truely horrendous, real torture just being a vegetable. So hit by a car isn't a definitive death.

I would say jumping off a cliff (100m +) would be definite death when you hit the bottom. So in terms of more certain, cliff jumping.

Speaking of other ideas, well there always potassium cyanide or sodium cyanide you would need probably not even a teaspoon in some water for surefire death. You would become unconscious in about1 minute and then die within an hour. I can't remember how it causes death but I think it starves your cells of oxygen or something, anyway not really a nice way to go. Anyway, its very very difficult to acquire any of that stuff.

So all in all I would say cliff jumping would be the best option, at least (one would expect) on top of a cliff there should be a nice view in a natural environment and a bit of peace where you can meditate a bit and think through life, calm down and decide what you want to do. Especially at night time there should be a beautiful starry sky to look at if it's not cloudy.

I mean I think it's nicer than standing on a polluted freeway/motorway deciding which car to jump under and probably causing a pile up unless you're trying to kill other people.

When I say 'you' I'm talking in general, I could use 'one' but then I'd be saying 'one' all the time which is a bit incoherent.

Before anyone says I'm encouraging suicide or whatever, I'm not; I'm just answering the question.

Ok, I've just read your additional details: I suppose in reality the greatest control you will ever have over your life is by killing yourself (think about it; every other aspect depends on something). I mean people do get sick of life, I do occassionally. It's your life so do what you want with it. It's like one's obliged to live even if one isn't happy.

It would be best to have some peace before you go, so I suppose a cliff would be the most peaceful setting.

I think trying to jump off a cliff is scary. The better option would be to inject yourself with some overdose of cocaine or something.



However, My life too is miserable. I don't have a job. No friends. No money. I just sit around all day long in front of the laptop waiting for time to go by and regretting about stupid mistakes made in the past due to which im in this situation. Im on meds and still hanging on. I think its up to you to decide if you wanna go but it sure is scarier that trying to live through life out here.

Hey Matt, we have never met, but I really hope you don't go through with it. I know it seems like the only answer, but your life has worth and you are a valueable person. God created you for a reason, and HE CARES FOR YOU. He knows how you are feeling right now and why. The fact that you typed this online shows that you are reaching out to others. Reach out to him, pour your heart out to him in prayer and ask him to give you the wisdom and understanding you need to WANT to live. In the Bible, Isaiah chapter 40 talks about how God is the Creator of the entire universe and has all the billions of stars named and yet he will help even little me and you, because verus 29 and 31 say"he is giving to the tired one power if we hope in him." Here is a website for a lot of free downloads of articles and books to help you.Please don't give up hope, the Bible explains why we have so many problems, but also shows that very soon God is going to step in to remove them and promises us a life free from pain if we just take the time now to draw close to God. All the best to you. Please email me if you would like to talk....

Your better off with a gun. Go to the local gun store, fill out the paperwork, while waiting for the paperwork to go through put together your will... When you get said gun, put bullets in the gun, open mouth, insert gun, pull trigger...



HOWEVER, if by some miracle the gun doesn't fire... THEN GET SOME PYSCH HELP!!!!



Or you can always just walk into your near ER and ask for help... (It is worth the try...)

There is no answer to this question. Suicide is not the answer. Don't kill yourself.



Thing will be okay

How about, filling a light bulb with petrol? When you turn it on, the room will burst into flames, and is completely untraceable as to the cause of the fire.That's how wrote it in my novela.
