What a stupid fucking question.

Well,my plan is to leave before I go completely gaga. The timing may be difficult. Hopefully that will not be for another 12 years so.
Methode d'emploi: A dangerous but not-quite-lethal dose of barbituates,washed down with quite few glasses of the best cognac I can get my hands on. (about $500 a bottle)
I am both serious and furious. I am furious because the god botherers can't mind their own fucking business and block any proposed legislation allowing voluntary euthanasia .That means I can tell no one,and that some one I love will probably have the deep distress of discovering my body.
I honestly don't know if I will have the courage to end my life by myself.

It doesn't take courage, just desperation. If you truly don't want to go gaga you won't have a problem when the time comes.

This is for the U.S. 1-800-273-8255
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
Just thought I might add that.
Me? I'd jump off Angel Falls.

He's kidding, Sophia. If you take things like the fact that we all have our own lives and other people's lives in our hands all the time too seriously in the moments when it is not serious, you will go crazy. Yes, suicide is a very sad thing. It is also a personal choice and this thread is not going to be the catalyst for anyone to kill themselves. It takes much more than that, as I'm sure some people in this very thread know.

I don't think he's actually asking for advice on how to kill himself. It's just a discussion on how you would. I see no harm in it.
