The Suicide Solutions

Burning oneself (self-immolation)
Self-immolation is the act of setting oneself on fire, often practiced as a form of protest against a particular government or regime. Burning to death can take several minutes, making this a painful way to expire. Self-immolation is not foolproof; if done in public, a suicidal person might be stopped by people nearby. A person who survives self-immolation may still suffer extensive burns. An accelerant such as gasoline is frequently used to hasten death.

Car collision
Also known as autocide, suicide by deliberately driving a car into an immobile object such as a concrete barrier. The distinction between a genuine accident and a vehicle suicide can be very difficult.

Drowning
Suicide by drowning is deliberately entering water and staying there long enough for it to fill the breathing channels. This might be done by walking into water with heavy objects attached to the body to prevent buoyancy or escape. One might drive into water or jump off a ship or boat. This method risks permanent brain damage if rescue arrives after the brain has been deprived of oxygen for several minutes.If a car is driven into water, it will usually stay afloat for quite some time before sinking. After submerging, the pressure outside the car will be greater than the pressure inside, preventing its occupants from opening the doors until the interior fills with water and the pressure has equalized. This does not, however, prevent the occupants from manually rolling down the windows, and so is not foolproof.
Suicide by drowning could also be done by jumping from a bridge; see the section on Jumping.

Electrocution
Suicide by electricity. Electricity through the body can seriously disrupt nerve signals and cause death if the current is strong enough and affects enough of the body.Water is often involved, as water is a good conductor of electricity. A common method is to sit in a bathtub full of water and throw in an electrical device that is plugged into an outlet. Fuses installed in the electrical device can potentially thwart this method when a short-circuit occurs.
As with other forms, electrocution is not always fatal and can result in brain damage or other neurological impairment.

Hanging
Hanging is typically performed in the one of the following three ways:
Drop hanging. After putting a noose around the neck and tying the other end to some fixed object, a person jumps or drops himself from a height with the aim of breaking the neck.
Vertical position. A person strangles himself using his own weight. This is slower than the previous method. Strangulation is usually performed by standing on an easily-movable object such as a chair, putting a noose around one's neck and attaching the other end to a fixed object above one's head, and then kicking the object away.
Horizontal position. This is usually done when conditions do not allow for other means. The person puts a noose around his neck and attaches the other end to something that sticks out (e.g., a doorknob or water tap) and then uses his own force to push away from it, or establishes himself in a position where gravity can help. Due to prolonged asphyxiation, blood may pool in the eyes before death. Note that a violent seizure might occur causing unexpected disturbance.

Jumping
Jumping from a tall building or from a bridge. The impact can shatter organs and tissues. If a person jumps from a bridge into water, the person may die by drowning rather than by impact, especially if the bridge lies low over the water.
Jumping off the stern of a ship. This is done by jumping off the stern of ship into cold water and ultimately drowning. The chances of rescue are small since hypothermia sets in rapidly; it is also difficult to turn a ship around in time for any serious rescue attempt. This method occurs on cruise ships, cross-channel ferries and so-called "love-boats."
Jumping under a train, tram or car. The damage done depends on the speed and type of the vehicle. Being struck by a vehicle takes less damage and is less lethal than being run over. Nevertheless, just an arm or a leg may get under the wheels, and the person may survive handicapped.

Overdosing
This method involves taking a large dose of medication, such as sleeping pills, antidepressants, painkillers. Due to the unpredictablity of dosing requirements, death is uncertain and an attempt may leave a person alive but with severe organ damage. Drugs taken orally may also be vomited back out before being absorbed. Overdosing may also be performed by mixing medications with one another or with alcohol or illegal drugs. This method may leave confusion over whether the death was a suicide or accidental.
Painkiller overdoses are among the most unpleasant things for medical personnel to deal with. Often these are teenagers taking over-the-counter substances such as paracetamol (acetaminophen) in a 'cry for help', believing that these everyday drugs will not cause too much damage. Paracetamol overdoses cause very painful liver failure over a period of days, so it is common for people to regret their choice in hospital when it is too late to do anything about it: there is currently no medical treatment for liver failure except a liver transplantation. People who overdose on paracetamol may have no serious adverse symptoms for days afterwards; the effect of a paracetamol overdose can be reversed if medical treatment is sought within a few hours of taking the drug.

Plastic bag method
A large plastic bag (e.g. a garbage bag) is used for this method, often combined with sleep-inducing drugs, a near overdose or other ingredients such as bicycle glue rubbed under the nostrils. The glue is thus inhaled and causes hallucinations or drowsiness. The plastic bag is fastened tightly around the neck with a strap or rope. Unconsciousness or sleep rapidly sets in as a result of lack of oxygen to the brain and the use of drugs (e.g. sleeping tablets). Since the combined use of drugs often results in a deep sleep or unconsciousness, the person then eventually suffocates during sleep without being aware of this. This method is generally lethal since the person has no further control over his or her will after becoming unconscious or falling asleep.
If the onset of unconsciousness is not rapid, carbon dioxide build-up in the bag will cause rapid, shallow breathing sometimes known as "air hunger". To avoid this, some people use an inert gas, such as a tank of nitrogen or helium to purge the bag of oxygen and minimize the build-up of carbon dioxide. The addition of Nitrous oxide may also accelerate unconsciousness and act as an anesthetic. Overall, there may be a risk of brain damage should this method be rendered incomplete.

Slashing wrists
Cutting through the wrists until the one of the arteries is reached. People choosing this method die because of blood loss. This method is also frequently used as self-harm, and it is not an immediately lethal method; therefore, not all people who slash their wrists intend suicide.
It is generally difficult to die by slashing the wrists since the arteries tend to try to spasm shut in response. Bleeding to death by veins is even harder and rarer. It can take a few hours or even more to finally die from the blood loss, depending on body weight, clotting problems (such as alcohol or aspirin in the blood), etc.
Slashing wrists may damage tendons which could cause partial loss of the suicide's ability to control their hand.

Suffocation by Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisoning
Suffocation enough of a gas which disrupts the body, usually through failure of the respiratory system. In most cases carbon monoxide (CO) is used for this, as it is easily available as a product of combustion; for example, it can be released by cars and some types of heaters. Carbon monoxide is colourless and odourless, so breathing it is almost unnoticeable. However, CO molecules attach themselves to hemoglobin in the blood, displacing oxygen molecules and denying sufficient oxygen levels to the body, eventually resulting in death.
There was a euthanasia device invented on this principle where a person using it would have to breathe out of it a few times and then could die.

CO Poisoning by Car Exhaust
In the past, suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning was usually achieved by running a car's engine in a closed space such as a garage, or by connecting the car's exhaust pipe to the inside of the car with a hose. Air-quality regulations have begun to rule out suicide by this route though, as catalytic converters were designed to clean up the exhausts and remove all but a trace of CO.
[edit]
CO Poisoning by Burning Charcoal
When carbon monoxide poisoning via car exhaust has become less of a suicide option, suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning — that of burning charcoal or other fossil fuel within a confined space, such as a small room, tent, or car — began to rise. Such incidents have occurred in connection with group suicide pacts in both Japan and Hong Kong.

Fireburn is not here to encourage ppl to kill themselves, but just some interesting shit i found while surfing net at 2am. I love myself so much that i dun think suicide is ever the solution, its just that i find it funny people are so bo liao to do a write up on suicide..wahlau eh.
