how do you know if someone is serious about taking their own life
I usually just encourage them to kill themselves, and then find out afterwards
thats the neat part: you don't. unless they show signs of totally giving up, like heavy alcohol or drug use, disgusting living conditions and hygiene, withdrawing from friends and loved ones, etc but even then can't really tell
>>85840464Why would I take my own life? It's already mine. There's nothing to take.
>>85840464they've committed suicide
If they're serious about it, they generally don't tell anyone, because that could prevent success.
>>85840464If they got signs of a cluster B personality disorder then its likely for attention
>>85840464If they've been depressed for a long time and then suddenly one day they seem really really happy and content out of nowhere. >this feels good>I feel good>I feel warm and good>I should kill myself right now so this is the last feeling I have
>>85840464They talk about it sometimes when they're really sad or frustrated and they dont do it for attention. Then one day they stop talking about it because their mind is made up.
>>85840464They don't say "JK" after saying they want to "kms"
>>85840519>I feel warm and good>I should kill myself right now so this is the last feeling I have>>85840531>Then one day they stop talking about it because their mind is made upTheseSuicide is a completely rational action when you live in an irrational world.Life will get worse and you will die.Might as well go out on top and on your own terms
>>85840914Anon, it looks like you're suicidal. Just know that we all believe in you.>Long way down saaar!
>>85840936Thanks friend, I'll put you in my will when I do it.You can have my ps vita and my gf :^)
>>85840464They are serious about a good suicide method that will insure completion. So if you want the best suicide method, just book a plane ticket to Stavanger, in Norway, and hike to Preikestolen or Pulpit Rock. It is a 250+ meter fall with a hard landing on rocks. It is a 100% guaranteed to kill you, 100% painless, and 100% instant suicide method. You guaranteed will die instantly with guaranteed zero pain as your body falls on the rocks with a speed of at least 171+ km/h after falling for ~7 seconds from the edge of the cliff.The sudden deceleration will rip your aorta from your heart, turn every organ into mush, and your brain will eject from your head when your head cracks on rocks at those speeds.And on top of that, the earliest an ambulance helicopter could arrive to pick up your body and bring it to the hospital is 1.5 hours, as rescue from such a steep cliff is a huge hassle. And at that point, anyone who against all odds survived somehow for some time the initial jump would have long since died from massive internal bleeding and blood loss.Just look at that height and that landing: https://youtube.com/shorts/vlCERj12Y2EImpossible to survive and hence completely idiot-proof suicide method.Some might want to do it alone when others are not watching. If so, just do it at night, as tourists are only there during the daytime during the summer months. Also, when you get to Stavanger, I recommend buying 2 sixpacks of beer, or 2 sixpacks of cider, or 2 bottles of wine, or 2 bottles of vodka, whatever you prefer, and bring them to Preikestolen. If you are scared of heights or the survival instinct kicks in at the edge, just get drunk. If you are drunk, and especially mythologically drunk, it's 5000% easier to make the jump or take that extra drunken step over the edge when you stand there than it would be sober.But if they're not serious about suicide, they might just think of deeply suboptimal ways of doing it (like jumping from 5 meters lmao).
>>85840464The danger zone is when they actually start planning a way to kill themselves
>>85841000I imagine Beachy Head in Sussex would be essier
>>85841000why are you obsessed with this specific cliffdo you have autism
>>85841038Easier access, you do not have to hike for 2 hours to get there. But there are 3 huge drawbacks with Beachy Head:1. It is patrolled by do-gooders. As a notorious suicide spot that is easy to access and close to a town, there are tons of do-gooders patrolling it and calling cops at the slightest hint of a sign in someone going there. Not a dealbreaker but not ideal either.2. It is a shorter fall. At Beachy Head you fall ~150 meters. At Preikestolen you fall 250+ meters at least (slightly more if you run and jump). That has a significant impact at the speed you land with and thus the level of catastrophic damage.Preikestolen landing: 171+ km/hBeachy Head landing: 140+ km/hYou are therefore more likely to die at Preikestolen. But you are still basically 100% guaranteed to die at either spot. But if Beachy Head is 99.9999999999% certain, Preikestolen is 99.99999999999999999999% certain. And you are thus more likely to feel pain at Beachy Head, even if the chance is still microscopic.3. Rescue time. Beachy Head landing spot is super easy to access and it is close to a town. If do-gooders find you they can get you to a hospital fast. Not a chance at all at Preikestolen. Getting a helicopter there and getting you to the hospital is at least 1.5 hours in the ultra best cast scenario.In other words, Beachy Head is survived one time in a trillion. Preikestolen isn't. And you gotta jump fast once you're at Beachy Head or the do-gooders get you. At Preikestolen you can take your sweet time, all night, while no one suspects a thing.
>>85840475Those who are most serious about it don't tend to talk about it. They'll just do it one day and you would have never known they were that kind of person.
>>85840464If they're talking about it, they're not serious. If their brains are dripping down the wall, then they're serious.
You guys don't know shit
>>85840464You won't know, they'll just kill themselves one day.
>>85840519>>I should kill myself right now so this is the last feeling I haveAren't they happy because they've finally lifted the burden of choosing to die and now its like a kid on christmas waiting for presents?
>>85840464when you've been visiting their grave every year now for 2 decades."We didn't listen to him" - My Mother.My uncle killed himself in 2000.He gassed himself with his own car, which was a popular method before internet times.
just a bit too giggly and whimsical than usual positive nihilism, somewhat at peace with helplessness half the time and in deep despair the other halfidk it probably manifests itself differrently
>>85844026 (Me)yeah kind of this >>85840519
