I am in an emergency response class, and we were going over suicide recently. My book claims that men would kill themselves in a more violent way than women would. So, my question is, how would you kill yourself? and are you male of female?
since, I am no longer suicidal...I was planning with pills, until I did the research and found out I was more likely to just end up in hospital. Then I thought hanging. The problem is there is such a high failure rate, you really need to make sure its going to work first.
Im male, and I believe suicide to be the most chicken sh!t way out...dying is easy, living is a mother focker. But if I ever reach my old age to the point I can't take care of myself and become a burden to others, I would want it to be quick and as painless as possible. I would probably overdose on some good drugs to the point I wouldn't care that I was dying.
Dramatics, like Cobain and Hemingway, are for those who wish to draw attention to their demise.
Well i would do a combination of an Aspirin overdose and slit wrist, just because the aspirin would cause you to bleed faster because it prevents the blood from coagulating, add to that a bucket of watter you have my method. I'm a female.
definately jumping off a tall building/bridge - the adrenilin rush of falling is imense, so may as well go out on a high. either that or a heroin/cocaine overdoes
Male. Interesting question. I've put some thought into this during the past 3 months. I've been severely depressed due to multiple health problems (hormone imbalance to pain). I failed using an overdose of pain meds and sleeping pills. I'm still angry that it failed. I thought about using a car a very high speed and hitting a cement wall, however, I would like to leave my body in one piece. I'm not angry at anyone and wouldn't want to have my family see my body all over a totaled car. I will use a better drug the next time. Surviving an overdose is not what I want to experience again.
If I was going to kill myself, I would want to drive my car in front of a train. This would mean a lot of people would not know if it was an accident or a suicide. I like to keep people guessing.
I think... anything sudden, as quick and painless as possible. I wouldn't want to draw it out, be made to wait as drugs or poison filtered through my system. Maybe something like jumping off a building. I'm female.
