an obscure online community, a suicidal hermit shares his last days
on earth with his fellow ‘rejects of society’...

“ I've
long ago come to accept that the only reason I still spend my time on
this terrible planet is the lack of a good, relatively painless
suicide method. The main problems I faced with different methods I
came up with is that they either:
1.
Would take too much effort to set up
2.
Would cost too much money or materials are entirely unattainable
3.
Would allow me enough time to let my survival instinct kick in
4.
Is inhumanely painful
After
looking through different methods on another empty Thursday, I
stumbled upon a well known book called The
Peaceful Pill Handbook.
Usually I steer away from such
books
because they rarely contain methods that are still, to this day,
useful. I however downloaded this book with a certain purpose, namely
hearing that this book contained further explanation on carbon
mono-oxide suicide.
After
doing some intensive research, i.e. a couple of google searches, it
seems that not only is this method not painful, it also goes
completely unnoticed by your body, thus never enabling your survival
instinct. The first next question I asked myself is "how easy is
this to pull off?". The book contained a chemical reaction that
creates copious amounts of carbon mono-oxide. It is a reaction of two
easy to obtain acids, sulfuric acid and formic acid. Apparently,
heating up concentrated sulfuric acid and slowly dripping formic acid
onto it will create this carbon mono-oxide. Heating the sulfuric acid
is not necessary, but will make the reaction go a lot faster thus
producing more carbon mono-oxide.
I
went ahead and googled around and quickly found a store that
delivered some cleaning solution that is basically a 96% concentrated
sulfuric acid mix. I then ordered some 85% formic acid from another
website, in order not to appear suspicious (I have terrible luck when
it comes to this stuff). If all goes well, they should both be
delivered to my house by Monday.
I
plan on sitting in my bathroom when no one is home, pouring the
sulfuric acid in a pan, heating it up with a fuel tablet and dripping
the formic acid in there. If anyone comes home to a carbon mono-oxide
infested house, I'll frankly be too dead to care.
So,
what do you anons think about this? Has anyone here ever attempted
suicide in a similar way? If yes, why did it fail? If it didn't, how
fast is internet in the afterlife? ”

“ OP
here, all of my acids have just arrived. I ordered one more bottle of
formic acid so that I now have a liter of sulfuric acid and a liter
of formic acid to throw into it, just to make sure it's not going to
fail. I intend on doing this in my small toilet downstairs. It's a
small place with a tall ceiling. If I had to guess, it would be 3
cubic meters at the very most. This much acid should be enough to
produce roughly half a cubic meter of CO. I'll do whatever I can to
make sure I breathe in most of that, including sealing all holes in
the door and stuff.
I
read that this reaction happens too slowly at room temperature, so
heating the sulfuric acid up will be necessary. It is going to be
messy, but I'm sure I'll manage to do that somehow. I have a big
glass bowl
that
fits roughly 5 liters of liquids, so the container is not an issue.
I
will wait until I have found the right time to do this, which is when
no one is home. It will probably be either next monday or next
tuesday.
From
this point on, I will leave a reply in this thread if my suicide
fails with the information as to why it may have failed. If I haven't
found a suitable time by the end of next week, I will also leave a
reply. If you hear nothing from me by the end of next week, you will
know it has worked and you'll have an insanely easy and probably
painless suicide at your disposal.”

“ I
wanted to do it a bit sooner, but as if the universe is joking with
me, my father had decided to take his vacation starting this week, so
I had to adjust my plans a little bit.
I've
got it planned for tonight. Instead of in the toilet bathroom, I'll
be doing it in the toolshed outside of our house. I already have all
bottles set up over there, means to make a fire and put it out and
some other useful stuff. The most difficult part will be sneaking
outside at night, but I'll say I'm on my way to the gym, which I used
to go to at night.
I
got foam over there to plug any holes and I'll lock the door and keep
the keys in to ensure that even if someone catches on somehow, it'll
be too late. I hope I can manage to do at least one final thing right
in my miserable life.
I
hope it arrives safely, it sounds like a good way to go out.”
“ You
don't just spot someone in their car and decide to break them out
because they might just be committing suicide. I wonder what really
happened.”, another hermit said.
“Op,
are you still there? I'm wishing you the best. Know that there is
somebody out there thinking about you now”, said his online friend.
“ It's
currently 12:38 AM. I have just put on some thick clothes, put
whatever other bits I needed in my pockets and am headed towards the
tool shed.”
“ I
will not fail this time ”, he said.
“ In
my toolshed right now. On phone. Acid is bubbling like crazy. Hands
trembling. So far no fiw comfort. I want to dri so bqdly...”
His
last moments had begun...
“Im
in leiden, netherlands, merenwijk, for whoever wants to look me up
after to see of im for real”
Was
he really gone?
