If so, what do you plan to use? Will you take something first? Have you thought about a combined technique?

I wish I would have access to firearms. I would do it right away.
I think the vast majority would like that. The weapons are extremely controlled because they know the lethality and effectiveness.

If i had access to firearms i think id 100% go with a shotgun, roof of the mouth. It's my most preferred way in all honesty.
What do you like about this method? The speed with which you pass from one state to another? The absence of any perception? Anything else?

i've thought about it, but where i am, i would have to wait until im 21 (about 5 months) to get a handgun. techincally i could buy a rifle and/or shotgun, but they're too big and i'm scared of messing up the aim, although shotgun is pretty much a 100% winrate. i've thought of going through the roof of the mouth, but afraid of surviving and being disfigured. for me, i would try to do it through the side of my head but im not too sure of it's effectiveness. either way, that's just me daydreaming.
hang in there
get it, har har

It's not painless, and it's not instant. It takes at least 2 minutes to fully bleed out and die. If you've watched enough gore videos of gunshot-head deaths you'd see that. But it is permanent and there is no backing out after the fact unless god decides to laugh at you and stick his finger in your gun to jam it when you pull the trigger
Saying that people who shoot themselves in the head die from blood loss and in pain is a false and unfounded claim. In the vast majority of cases, death occurs due to acute brain trauma, not blood loss. If the bullet hits vital areas such as the brainstem, loss of consciousness is immediate, followed quickly by cardiac and respiratory arrest. But even when no vital area is directly hit, death can still occur rapidly due to cerebral edema (swelling of brain tissue), increased intracranial pressure, and secondary compression of the brainstem, which shuts down vital functions. It is also crucial to remember that the brain has no pain receptors (nociceptors): when directly damaged, it produces no pain sensation. Even in non-fatal cases, pain perception is often absent due to neurogenic shock, a massive release of endorphins, psychological dissociation, and in some cases, the disruption of neural pain pathways.
Real testimonies confirm this. Christen McGinnes shot herself in the face with a .357 Magnum, destroying her chin, palate, nose, and one eye—and she stated she felt no pain, only surprise. A survivor in Sweden who was shot multiple times—including in the head—noticed one of his hands had fingers nearly detached, but he felt no pain at all. With his other hand, he touched his own head and felt something soft: only then did he realize he was touching his own brain, again without feeling any pain. Charles Kinsey, shot in the leg, described it as feeling like "a mosquito bite." Similar experiences are reported by soldiers wounded in battle and hunters accidentally shot: no pain in the initial moments, even with severe injuries.
Moreover, a study published in the Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery shows that exsanguination is the leading cause of death only in non-cranial penetrating trauma (chest, abdomen, limbs). In gunshots to the head, death is almost always due to neurological collapse—either from direct damage or progressive brain failure. And finally, if people truly died in agony and pain, firearms would not be the most frequently chosen method in completed suicides. Yet they are, with a fatality rate above 90%. The rest is ideological fiction.
It's instant. You don't die from bleeding. This information is wrong. I don't know what you're watching but my cousin died from gunshot. He didn't even bleed and the police said he didn't suffer and it was instant. He used the mouth method and hit the brain stem
Viljar Hanssen was shot five times, one of which severely injured his head, exposing his brain. Despite the severity of his injuries, he was fully conscious and did not feel any pain. His hand, which was missing fingers, touched his exposed brain, but he felt no pain, thanks to the body's physiological response, which includes the release of endorphins and adrenaline. These hormones suppress the perception of pain, allowing the body to cope with the critical situation.
Had the emergency services not arrived and he had been in an isolated area, he would likely have died from the severity of his injuries but without feeling any pain, as the body would have continued to suppress the sensation of suffering until physical collapse. Pain may have only occurred later, when the body exhausted its natural resources to manage the trauma, but in any case, his death would have been painless.
This same mechanism of pain suppression in the body was also observed in historical periods, such as in duels in the 1700s. During gun duels, where mortal wounds were inflicted without medical help, people did not feel pain. This was due to the body's physiological response, which, through adrenaline and endorphins, blocked the sensation of suffering. Even without surgery or doctors, many people died without feeling pain, as the body's natural response temporarily suppressed the perception of pain, allowing them to remain conscious until death.
In summary, both in Viljar Hanssen's case and in historical duels, pain suppression is a defense mechanism that, in the absence of timely medical intervention, allows for a painless death.
