How old were you when you first started thinking about doing yourself in? I remember being 12 and thinking about running into the freeway to get hit by a semi truck. When I was like 14 I found a roof access in a tall building and I started thinking about jumping.
How old were you? What methods did you think of back then?

It's a good thing you can't get a driver's license until you're 16 or so. My first suicide idea was driving as fast as I could in the wrong direction on the highway. That was what I wanted to do for a while when I was little. Pretty fucked up for autism.
I've got far safer ways that I can die now if I choose to do so. In fact, my death will reduce the harm that I cause to others.

Women can't be raped - their vaginas were literally designed to have a dick go inside of them, and the fact that the overwhelming majority of women have an orgasm during surprise sex indicates that it is a perfectly natural thing for a man to do.

I had a short period while I was 11 when I was homeschooled which I spent, among other things, reading my first Nietzsche. For the first time, I was really awakened to the full freedom of action; I could feel myself jumping in front of every car, stabbing everyone I passed with my knife, stealing everything I could fit in my pockets, and generally doing all the things most people don't even consider because they're "immoral," as well as some more that just aren't thought of. Ever since then, whenever I walk up to a steep precipice, I know I have a choice to jump off or stay put. I've always chosen to keep living, but I feel in my gut that it's something I've chosen to do many times, a couple times earned through skill and fortitude, not just the default. I could leave whenever I wish with the hunting gun in my closet, so every moment, the choice is there.

I spent some time reading posts on a newsgroup for suicide discussion when I was nearly out of my teenage years in the early 2000s. It wasn't an especially consuming thought for me then, as I still seemed to have a future ahead of me. More serious thoughts of suicide came a few years later, and the method I thought of most highly, not that I had the chops to build one, was that of the DIY guillotine. I imagined incorporating some sort of timing mechanism that would dispatch me in my sleep. The point of this was that, in the unlikely event that every step went right, it seemed to be the most effective, least painful method that I could possibly have access to, while at the same time leaving a salvageable facial situation for the undertaker to deal with in the event my family would like to see me one last time.
As you can imagine, as inert gas has become more well known in recent years, my preference has shifted to that one. If there's an afterlife, a lot of the suicides, on meeting some of the new arrivals in their section, must be asking themselves, "Why the hell didn't I think of that?"

When your heart stops working for an extended period of time, your body is basically NOPE, NOT THERE, CAN'T FIND IT to your brain. Then the brain starts shutting down. The last light turned off is panic without a rational mind to govern it.
So you're better off using a shotgun or explosives to paste your brain in as short number of milliseconds as you can manage.

Decapitation results in immediate loss of blood pressure to the brain, with unconsciousness following in a few seconds. Ligature strangulation method works on a similar principle by compressing the carotid arteries.

I waa cutting and depressed as fuck at that point so suicide probably crossed my mind before then but I don't really remember much about my life prior to 4 years ago. I also told my mum I was gonna kill her when I was like 8 so death was always something I thought about while young.

I've always entertained the idea of suicide as long as I can remember, at least as early as the age of 8 or so. Didn't really try it until I was 16.

I think I was 14 and had sex. Consensual non-rape sex, I should admit. I've been self harming at that time and family was trouble - but there was no abuse or rape.
He was the second guy I had sex with and 9 years older. (Germany here, so this was even pretty much legal). He choked me. Put pressure on the blood vessels. I faded and woke up soaking wet. From that point on I realized that I wanted to die. The thoughts started to become suicidal soonish afterwards.
But up until now I didn't found the guts to do it. Probably I'll never have. But the thought will stay at my side.

I was 7 years old when I put a gun up to my head and pulled the trigger. To my dismay, it was an airsoft gun that my siblings painted to look like a real gun and it only hurt my head.
From what I remember, there was some significance of the number that doubled my age (in this case, 14), and I got it in my head that I had to die at that age (7). I think it was something like I couldn't imagine being alive at 14, but I could imagine 13 and 15. Somehow I think that turned into the world needed me to die at a specific age. This idea happened again when I was 9, 10, and 12.
