You miss the point. You would have already jumped off a cliff. This is one thing you do before. Of course try all the other things. But if you _are_ on the ledge, consider this before. If you think about it, is the consideration of this is similar to "who will find your body, how will they feel".
It's one additional stop gap to prevent the worse outcome.
- hugh3 15y agoI don't think that's how it works. (Also, no offence, but I'm disinclined to take suicide-prevention advice from anyone named "necro"...)
- singular 15y agoI can confirm (at least in my experience + the experience of others I know who suffer from serious clinical depression) this is not how (serious) depression works. I sincerely doubt it would make any difference, largely because of how you feel about life + yourself (it would require an acceptance of capability of doing such things) + the point of trying to help such a horrid world. I think the more immediate consideration of those people finding your body, etc. will be more effective as that's something undeniable and forces you to consider others in a non-fanciful way.
