I'm a worthless human being. I've been a worthless human being for a pretty long time, but I've just now come to accept it.
I've decided I want to die. However, I'm too much of a coward to go through with it. Perhaps it's the thought of pain, maybe it's the risk of failing at failing.
In any case, whatever some (Relatively) painless and (Relatively) reliable suicide methods, preferabley accessable to the common 20-something who doesn't work in a hospital?

Find ways to lift your life because decided against living it. I doubt anyone is going to give you instructions of suggestions on ways to take your life. You need to find help in other places-- like from people you love, and professional doctors.
karenR answered Tuesday May 13 2008, 10:42 pm: Edit: I'm sure your no everything attitude
is part of your problem in life. Learn to
listen now and then. I've been on the planet
close to 51 years and haven't fell or knocked
myself off it yet.
I'm sorry you feel you are worthless.
Most who feel they are really aren't.
As has been said there is no painless
way to kill yourself. Even if there
were nobody here would give that advice.
Anyone giving advice that would cause harm
would be booted from the site.
Do more to improve your worthiness, if
you feel it is a problem. Get out there
and care for someone else, make yourself
worthy. Its not impossible to do. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
Cassiopea answered Tuesday May 13 2008, 9:24 pm: You use the word "Human Being," yet obviously don't understand its meaning. Anyone can give you many reasons to kill themselves, most can not give you one reason to live. I will tell you a secret, one you must explore and understand. A human being and your purpose is wrapped with in the word. We are the marring of the "Human" animal and the Spiritual "Being". It is the animal that wishes you to give up, it is the spirit that wishes control instead. As long as you live under the control of the animal, your life will be this perceived nightmare you wish to escape.
I will tell you the best way to kill yourself, live without caring, commit to nothing, neither lead nor follow, never try to improve, most of all ignore what you are and what your spirit wants of you and never try to be important! Most people try to do things to make themselves appear important, few are willing to do what it takes to be important for that involves taking risks and sticking your neck out.
Search for reasons to live young one, reasons to die are easy to find.
Be well,
Gilbert Mar
I feel bad that you don't understand. It did answer your question and you should really listen to it. It has nothing to do with religion. I am not a religious person at all. It is the truth about life and I am sad that you don't understand it. I will give advice to people if I think I can help them even if it is not the answer you wanted it is an answer to the question put forth. My advice to you would to be don't ask questions on here and expect every answer to please you.
I hope in some way you can understand what I am trying to say. If you don't I am sorry and I wish you the best. [ Cassiopea's advice column | Ask Cassiopea A Question ]
no_reason answered Tuesday May 13 2008, 8:23 pm: do you mind telling me why you wanna kill yourself? i no it's dumbbut i've wanted to kill myself for over 2 years now. but like you, i'm a coward. tell me ALL the reasons, no matter how stupid and whiny it all comes out. i swear, i'll listen. it's not stupid and it really helps. i still wanna kill myself, each and every day and if i was given a choice to live a eally happy life or kill myself painlessly, i'd always choose to kill myself. but tell me why you want to. i've survived 2 years. well actually more but i got through. just tell me. will understand, i swear!!
EDIT ---
Okayy so i was thinking about it, and first of all, this isn't euthanasia. secodn of all, if you are still alive and want advice, then just look online. but be careful to check the mortality rates, otherwise you'd be in too much pain, you wouldnt die, and you'd be put on suicide watch which is horrible. i hear laughing gas can kill you easily if dealt with wrongly, and you can get that off the internet. just look it up.

thelaura answered Tuesday May 13 2008, 5:54 pm: No one here will give you advice on how to kill yourself, as it's a child friendly site, for one. They're going to do the opposite. In fact, I'm thinking that is what you want - for people to give you multiple reasons why NOT to kill yourself.
For one, killing yourself is the cowards way out. Life can be tough. You must accept that. It throws many obstacles at us and yes, a lot of the time, people DO feel like giving up - but they're strong. They know deep down they can beat it if they try. I don't know what's happened to you to make you feel like a "worthless human being", but do you know what? You can change that - change it for the better.
Right now, I don't have much going for me. I sucked at school which was my own fault and now I'm finding it almost impossible to find a job and earn money to make a living. Family life etc isn't a barrel of laughs either. but I'm hanging in there because I want to show people and most importantly, prove to MYSELF that I AM worth being here - just like everyone else.
Whatever has happened to you in the past can be fixed. Then you can focus on your all important future.
I urge anyone with suicidal thoughts to seek help.
Death is forever. Depression isn't.
EDIT IN RESPONSE TO FEEDBACK:
Either way, NO ONE in their RIGHT MIND would tell someone ways to commit suicide. You know, that is what THE INTERNET IS FOR. If you weren't afraid, you'd search and find ways yourself instead of HINTING for HELP on here. Advicenators IS child friendly. Children use it - there is an age limit, yes, but when has that ever stopped anyone? A lot of our columnists are young teens themselves, who happen to offer BRILLIANT advice.
I don't care you rated a 1. I'm more worried about the fact you'd think people would give you ways to die.
You should be thankful for the help you got. There will be PLENTY more from other users, so beware. It is what Advicenators is about. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
BrokenWings answered Tuesday May 13 2008, 4:19 pm: Most ways of killing yourself are going to be painful.
I don't necceserily agree with you wanting to kill yourself but I do believe you should have the choice. If you go to switzerland (I believe) Euthinasia is legal and is done by lethal injection which is the most humane way of killing someone.
If you go for that, you will be subject to a mental health assesment, which I would suggest anyway. I know you have accepted being 'worthless' but I would really suggest talking to your doctor about how you feel, even if its for more ideas.
I have suffered from severe depression and I know how it feels to think that you are worthless, but you can come out of it. I know thats not what you want to hear but you only live once and you might as well try to feel better by going to the doctor, and if it doesnt work, you've got nothing to lose.
Also, if its being worthless that you feel, why not do something to feel more useful to society. Volenteer to help people who can't do things themselves. Who can't help themselves. Even if you help one person, I know from experience (I am a wheelchair user) someone who really wants to help you, even if they aren't successful can make someone who needs help so happy just that theres some humanity in people.
If you would like to talk to someone, I'll listen without judging.
