Setting affairs in order before suicide?
If a person plans on killing themselves what should they do to make things easier for others? And don't say "Don't kill yourself", that's not what I'm meaning.
I think the obvious stuff would be the likes of boxing up possessions, leaving a suicide note, arranging who you want your money to go to. Anything I've missed?
What's more selfish? Killing yourself? Or expecting another person to go through torment every day just so that you won't miss them?

Eh, if you want to be a coward and hurt everyone who loves you then sure, off yourself.
Pack all your shit up, burn anything that you don't want found, delete your history and write a note explaining why, but don't blame anyone but yourself, because if you're going to put your family through the torture of losing you then at least do them the service of knowing it wasn't because of them.
At the end of the day, if you're going to kill yourself, you might as well have some fun beforehand. Tell your crush you fancy them, eat a fucktonne of doughnuts, roll down a hill in a tractor tire, whatever. You might find that you're having too much fun to do it.
Finally, if you're going to do it, let me tell you this. Every single suicidal jumper who survived realised that most of their problems that they were killing themselves over had very simple solutions.

Suicide is the cowards way out! They/you have no idea how much hurt you will cause for years and years to come! There is always a better solution other than to end your life! You may be gone but too many people get left shattered for the rest of their life's. nothing a person who is taking their own life can "help" family or friends in that situation!!

Go far far away and do it. Don't let any of your friends or family 'find' you. Just disappear. Imagine finding your loved one dead. I would never wish that on anyone. How dare you!

Nothing makes the loss of another, "easier." My brother killed himself 8 years ago. He left behind two biological daughters, not to mention his mom, step-mom (my mom), sister (me) and two brothers. Suicide is selfish, whether you like it or not. Nothing can make it "easier". The pain will live on forever and they will constantly blame themselves for not being able to save you. Why would you want to do that to somebody? I highly doubt your life is as bad as you think it is. There are people who are out on the streets, homeless with no food and are ill and can't get medical attention. I think they have it A LOT worse than you ever could. Only you can fix your life, make it better. Don't make excuses for why you want to take the easy way out. Show the world you're better than that.
BTW, apparently you've been suicidal for at least 3 months. I think you just want attention. Get over yourself and move on with your life. Life sucks, I get it, but man the f*ck up and take life like a man and not like a coward.

You should reach out to one person you trust most for support, if you do choose to kill yourself youll be dead , its not a choice you can ever change your mind with if everyone killed themselves when they were going through a very hard time in their life the whole of the worlds population would be wiped out, you need to be strong!! Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, good luck
