Has anyone taken steps to attempt to recover but also decided to have the means to ctb in case it doesn't work out? Is it counterproductive to do this? I find great comfort in the idea of having the means to ctb on my terms if things don't go well

my protective layers ;


1. 1.5 years savings,
2. Savings for medical care
3. Six months savings
4. Another Six Month Savings
5. People in my life that can help me

I find comfort in knowing that I have many options when things don't go according to plan. Other than that; I know that any other problem can be resolved within, which brings comfort.

Yeah, I'm closing in on suicide as well as doing some basic level of daily activity. I don't believe I can "recover", but I might be able to survive until a good method presents itself.

just having the knowledge that ctb is a possibility for yourself can be a huge relief

In my case i think that having a reliable option of cbt makes trying to recover easier? Like let's say; if suddenly things get worse despite me doing "my best" I can always make that final decision even it's in the far future. It's kind of comforting, I guess.

I'm in a constant suicide/exist struggle. On the inside I am desperate to die and on the outside I fight against it. I've always got a method nearby Incase everything gets too much
