His method is head and shoulders above all other available alternatives.

The man- I'm going to head over here. The ex- no your head's over there........I see a Seinfeld episode . All kidding aside I feel sorry for him if he felt this was the only way out.

Isn't a gunshot to the head the quickest and least painful way to commit suicide?
except it doesn't always work as planned. i could tell you a few stories, but they might run up against the whole patient confidentiality issue.

I heard this story on the radio about 20 years ago and never forgot it " A woman took the shelves out of the dishwasher, put it on the hottest setting, and climbed in and shut the door"
Scolded her to death....

There is a lot of insensitivity in this thread regarding this guy. Taking your own life is a big decision.

He must have been under an enormous ammount of stress near the end. At least he didn't bury his head in the sand and let things roll over like some do. To top it all, when there's a heavy weight on your shoulders and life throws you a coin, some guys just chose heads over tail.

Years ago, my mother was a nurse. She was working at a hospital in Pensacola Florida. This guy walks into the emergency room with a little blood running out of his ear. Apparently he'd tried to commit suicide by shooting himself in the head (I'm assuming small caliber like a 22 or 25). It hadn't worked so he drove from Alabama (at least 30 miles) to the hospital. She said that he died while waiting, but apparently the bullet had gone in at an angle and had essentially run around the inside of his skull doing minimal damage.

In another incident. My oldest stepson killed himself when he was about 21 with a shotgun in a field not far from our house. My wife read the note and found the body. He died instantly.
