Don’t lose hope just because you haven’t done it yet

[Siamese Believe]

And don't listen to when people say "you would've done it already if you wanted to, so stop talking about it so much". This is a very silly, ignorant way of thinking, and it's incorrect. While it's true that some are able to find the courage to go through with it much faster than others.

Your chance of dying by suicide only increases the longer you remain suicidal, it doesn't decrease until your desire for death decreases. For some it may even take decades before they actually do it, and that's okay. It's okay to take as much time as you need, it's not cowardly at all, it's cautious and smart. You can back out a million times, but it only takes one time to end suffering indefinitely. This is why stating you have a plan is enough to get you hospitalized, regardless of when you want to do it.

bumping this.

because normies always want to give society the sob stories about people who have attempted once or multiple times and "turned their lives around", but they BARELY mention the large number of people who also attempted suicide multiple times, and eventually ended up succeeding.

its all smoke and mirrors for statistics and morality purposes . thats why I stopped beating myself up over past failed partial hanging attempts. one day I will succeed. FULLSTOP

I also wanna state that it is completely okay to take it slow and/or back out. I see a lot of people saying that they've planned for so long and they are only doing it because they feel kinda obligated to because their "date is up". I believe that you should only go through with it if there is absolutely no doubt in your mind that it is what you truly want, if there is any thought of doubt in your mind then please by all means take your time to just sit and think about it.

I'm a firm believer that you should be able to choose when you wanna check out, but once you've done it then there is no going back, so it's for the best that you do it with a clear state of mind so you can achieve the truest state of peace.

I love this post a lot of us feel pathetic because of it. I can't stress enough how important of comfort this is. Its very rare for someone to have this mindset and provide a helping post.
