I know this isn't my personal proof reading board, but I wanted some criticism on my suicide letter. Compared to getting no letter at all, would it be worse or better to get this letter from a family member? How does it read?
I am incredibly sorry to leave you nothing but this note.

I want you all to know how much I love you. I owe you all everything, you were a fantastic family that deserved much better.

You need to believe me when I say there's nothing any of you could do. Ultimately, I could only help myself.

I will try to explain why, but it's difficult to articulate.

I've felt terrible about myself for most of my life. I have no talent, and am not decently skilled at anything. I've always felt stupid, and just a little bit slow. I have an awful memory, and have forgotten much of what I've learnt. My reading comprehension and speed are bad. I cannot write. I find it very difficult to get along with people even on a basic level. I never have anything interesting to talk about. Just the act of speaking feels like a challenge. Only some of these things I could change through effort, but I've never had any real lasting motivation or drive. I just don't like myself at all, and I'm too tired to try living any more.

I really can't tell you how sorry I am to do this to all of you. Mum and ***** especially. It's so selfish.

I don't deserve to ask for anything, but could you please try to see if there is any possibility of my organs being donated?

I'm sorry. Goodbye.

I love you all.

Make your explanation more vague.
It just sounds too trivial like you write it. It will destroy them.

Don't moan about your reading speed or lack of decent conversation in your suicide note. Also you need to get an organ donor card or whatever the equivalent is in your country.

I was worried about that. Might say something along the lines of not being happy with who I am?

But you don't because you are about to hurt them in the most selfish and painful way possible.

>I owe you all everything, you were a fantastic family that deserved much better.

Obviously not that fantastic considering you don't want to see tomorrow with them.

>You need to believe me when I say there's nothing any of you could do.

They won't believe that. You are hoping that they do to make this whole process easier for you, you selfish prick.

>Ultimately, I could only help myself.
You don't just exist inside your own skin faggot, others probably want to help you, but you are too much a faggot and push them away.


>I have no talent, and am not decently skilled at anything.

So you're a vanity craving whore... great.

>I have an awful memory, and have forgotten much of what I've learnt.

Most of us do cupcake, its fun to review and relearn. Try using highlighters to help in the skimming process to refresh your knowledge.

>I really can't tell you how sorry I am to do this to all of you

They won't believe this, and deep down neither do you.

>could you please try to see if there is any possibility of my organs being donated?

This would piss me the fuck off if I was a family member and read this. Fucker cared enough to donate his organs to some stranger, but not enough to hurt us (his family)

>I'm sorry.
No you're not

>Goodbye.
This isn't Goodbye, you're a lying shit.

Have you told people you plan to kill yourself? I can tell you from first-hand experience that things can improve if you do. Often people care more than they let on, and it's good to talk about stuff.

Why don't you go out and rob a bank right now?

I know what depression is like, and I hate those people who say "just b happy", but your note is just so horribly passive. Like you know something is wrong, but can't be bothered to put the smallest bit of energy into changing it, or even trying something new.

Right now you could be walking into a bank, telling the teller that this is a robbery, taking the cash, and driving to a hotel. You could sit there all night listening to your heart thumping and wondering if the police are going to find you. IF you get caught, you kill yourself. If you don't, you still can. Then again, now that you've got a bit of cash and a good story behind you, you might not want to. Just a suggestion.

I agree, but don't say you love them. Because it's a shell of a statement. Those words will be empty to them.

OP is not suicidal and that's not a real suicide note

A real suicide note reads like this:

>Fuck you all. I hate this fucked up world. I hate myself. I'm done.


It won't say stupid shit like "Donate my fucking organs to science please"

OP is a lying sack of shit, and you're a fucking retard for believing him.

I know it's selfish. Even if they don't believe it, I still feel like it's better to keep that in there.

>>This would piss me the fuck off if I was a family member and read this. Fucker cared enough to donate his organs to some stranger, but not enough to hurt us (his family)

Point taken. I think it should happen regardless.

Revision:


I am incredibly sorry to leave you nothing but this note.

I want you all to know how much I love you. I owe you all everything, you were a fantastic family that deserved much better.

You need to believe me when I say there's nothing any of you could do. Ultimately, I could only help myself.

It's difficult to explain why I'm doing this. I'm not okay with who I have become. I've always felt extremely limited, no matter the effort.

I really can't tell you how sorry I am to do this to all of you. Mum and **** especially. It's so selfish.

I'm sorry. Goodbye.

I love you all.

Yeah, kind of, not any more than anyone else though.

Everything changes eventually. Its all about changing your day to day life for the better.

Try something you wouldn't otherwise, because for fucks sakes, you're going to die, and after that there's nothing. Sure you won't be sitting around wallowing in your ennui all day any more, but you're never going to see the sun rise or smoke a cigarette by yourself or hug someone you love ever again. If that isn't completely terrifying to you then I really don't know man.

Do you jog? I've noticed that if I make an effort to go out jogging in the morning (earlier the better, try to aim for 6 or 7am) the feelings of hopelessness go away a bit for the rest of the day.

NOTHING will make them feel better. If you think so, you are just as delusional as OP.

If any of them are close to him, they will be permanently scarred for life. Like a wound that never heals. OP will steel brighter days away from them in an instant. He does get this, because he is a vanity craving, selfish, insecure fuck twat who only cares about himself.

Don't Kill Yourself by Carlos Drummond de Andrade

Carlos, keep calm, love
is what you're seeing now;
today a kiss, tomorrow no kiss,
day after day tomorrow's Sunday
and nobody knows what will happen
Monday.

It's useless to resist
or to commit suicide.
Don't kill yourself. Don't kill yourself!
Keep all of yourself for the nuptials
coming nobody knows when,
that is, if they ever come.

Love, Carlos, tellurian,
spent the night with you,
and now your insides are raising
an ineffable racket,
prayers,
victrolas,
saints crossing themselves,
ads for better soap,
a racket of which nobody
knows the why or wherefor.

In the meantime, you go on your way
vertical, melancholy.
You're the palm tree, you're the cry
nobody heard in the theatre
and all the lights went out.
Love in the dark, no, love
in the daylight, is always sad,
sad, Carlos, my boy,
but tell it to nobody,
nobody knows nor shall know.
