I don't like that "for now" part, though. If you start thinking about it again and we're not here to help talk you out of it, think about these two less=than-pleasant things: first, among people who have survived suicide attempts by jumping, almost all of them had a moment of clarity while falling and regretted jumping; second, only half of people who try to kill themselves with a gun succeed. The rest wake up in a hospital in disbelief that they ended up worse off than they were before pulling the trigger. I'm no statistician, but trying to fix things the hard way sounds a lot more appealing than either of those options.

I know somebody who survived putting a .38 to the roof of his mouth and shooting himself. Thank you for the reminder. I can't let that be me.
