Discussion How are yall planning to send out your final messages?

[mayachcos]

Currently planning my first serious CTB attempt sometime in early April (with SN), and I'm now thinking of how I want to leave any messages for people I care about. How are yall planning to do it (and with what apps/software/medium)? Hopefully, I want this attempt to be my first and last.

 

[walliwalli]

a combination of different methods.
for my family: a flash drive with typed notes and everything else they need to know (passwords, bank info, etc.). the flash drive will be left near me.
for acquaintances who i owe responsibilities to: scheduled emails, not outright explaining my death but saying i have to drop whatever responsibility i owed them.
for friends on discord: this is the one i've been scratching my head over the most. i have to send messages to two servers. i was thinking a scheduled message via a bot, but most of those are for recurring messages, not one-time messages. i have to think about it some more.

 

[socksnsandles]

ive said everything ive needed to say while alive. no need for any final messages. maybe a note that says "im gonna haunt you"

 

[spøgelse]

I never have made one on previous attempts, even when I was younger. Not even when I was a naïve kid. I won't on my next one either.

 

[kuroshimi]

For friends, acquaintances and everyone else I plan to leave a short delayed message on my personal blog. Not sure about family. Maybe I should leave a written note on paper or on flash drive (@walliwalli thanks for idea) where I could go deeper and give them everything they need.

i'm dealing with this same issue. idk if my friends on discord will be able to receive a note from me.

I have never really sent any sort of note out or made any sort of plans on previous attempts, but this attempt which I'm doing massive research before I take initiative, I plan on making a scheduled post on Instagram. Make sure that I am fully alone, and send out scheduled text messages since Apple just recently introduced it. This way, no one calls any sort of wellness check on me. Unfortunately thats what happened the last time I tried to ctb, so yeah. On top of that, lots of notes in my phone's notepad, as well as a physical note saying where to find my final thoughts.

 

[INYGTRMTFMO]

There is a lot that I WISH I could say in a suicide note, but I do intend to make my death look not like a suicide, so unfortunately no note.

 

[emptymiku]

if i do end up ctbing, for my family o'd probably leave a physical printed note and if i still have online friends i would maybe ask two people to send a large note for everyone if i didn't tell them i failed an attempt within 7 days. i dont know though, i would have to think on that second one further.

 

[Afterglow]

I've thought about that before and I'm not sure if leaving a message or a note is a good idea.

Part of me thinks a message is the kind choice, so people aren't left wondering what happened or blaming themselves.

But another part of me thinks leaving words behind just gives people something to replay in their heads forever.

I don't know which is worse, so I've never really decided.

 

[l1ablemistakes]

I'm gonna leave a handwritten note for each person. Feels more personal than typing it.

 

[yabadabadooo]

usb stick with personal info and documents (passwords, etc), maybe a handwritten note to make it more personal with a backup copy on the usb. I used to write a lot in my notes app when I was younger (venting, general notes, unofficial diary), probably with put all that data on the usb too. basically, my entire life would be in a single stick, lol. I plan to put it in a plastic baggy and have it near my body.

 

[InTheAbyss]

Maybe a written note here for anyone irl. I'm not sure on that yet. And a delayed post for anyone from the site that I've made friends with to know why I stopped answering. Any that are left that is...

 

[mjolnir]

I don't intend to leave any message other than an email with bank passwords.

 

[gattifw]

A written note on paper with some message trying to explain why I CTB and information of how to get into my phone and bank acc

 

[knowledgeseeking]

setting up delayed emails. I wanted something I can stop if it fails.

I have a YouTube video that is set up to automatically be made public if I go offline for more than a month.

I'm past this, idek if reality is real - no need for a note

 

[asgoodasdead]

I have a list of emails of people I want to send stuff too so I'm doing schedule sends. But for the messages themselves, they are resting in a random google doc

 

[Warum]

i think i will not leave a note. which is ironic, my oirignal note was very, very long. i had a lot to say, especially to the abusive monsters in my life. in the end, nobody will get to hear anything.

 

[wasphyso]

An schedule post on Instagram and everything important ie (passwords, bank acc, etc) will be in a text file on my desktop

 

[Unrequitedlife]

I plan to record a video on my phone individually for all those I care about. I will title them appropriately and send them to a throw away e-mail account and leave the log in details of that e-mail account written down close by directing people to it,

 

[nitrogenous]

I've thought about it a lot, and because part of my suicide note would be exposing the dodgy things my old workplace has done to me and things around those nature, I've thought about a scheduled post somewhere public on the internet that would be posted after I die. So, if I end up surviving, I would still have time to cancel the scheduled post and not create that chaos (if I end up living and have this post up, it would really mess up my future and my employability)

 

[not much hope]

I am just going to be lazy and only write sorry on my exit note. I'm just to jaded to care about what or how my suicide will effect my friends or family I just want out of this terrible world.

 

[OzymandiAsh]

lol

Somewhat similar here but I will leave a note and also a delayed / scheduled text message via SMS.

 

[Forveleth]

Police sometimes take written notes as evidence so I am using scheduled emails instead.

 

[Dinozauria]

I really don't want people seeing my notes if I end up failing so I'll likely be writing them down on my phone, rewriting it in a notebook that I'll keep with me while CTBing, and hoping someone gets it to my family somehow

Holy shit, didn't know that. Hope that doesn't happen to me that sucks

 

[Forever Sleep]

I intend to attach my letters to a scheduled email sent to my solicitor. They'll need to be contacting those people anyway- with regards to my will.

I've heard that sometimes, the police don't pass on physical notes. I intend to leave a basic hand written one for them- to say it was a suicide with no one else involved. Then hope the others get digitally forwarded.

 

[walliwalli]

i'm dealing with this same issue. idk if my friends on discord will be able to receive a note from me.

i think i will use chronomessage.vercel.app for my online friends. you can encrypt a message with a release date, then generate a shareable link that will update with your message on the date. it does mean you'll have to send the link prior to CTBing which could be a little awkward (because it might seem like a fun surprise when it isn't at all ), but i can't figure out a better option. timeseal.online is a similar site (thank you to another member for mentioning it) but is a little too flashy for my taste.

 

[bakenohana]

for my family ill send a scheduled message and for my online friends i might get a friend to tell my other friends. I wont be listing passwords and logins anywhere because I don't want people going through my shit when I'm dead
