Here's the Goodreads entry about his tome, "Suicide Note".
####tl/dr extract:
Mitchell Heisman, the man who shot himself September 18, 2010 in Harvard Yard, killed himself as ”Experimental Elimination of Self-Preservation,”
The note, found at the domain http://www.suicidenote.info/ , is over 1,905 pages long, and divided into complicated subsections.
{ that's a dead link, go to web.archive.org }
Most arresting of all: the note — tome, really — is probing, deeply researched, and often humorous.
####His note begins:
If my hypothesis is correct, this work will be repressed
Where can I find his book?
The website for his book, mentioned elsewhere in this thread, is blocked by my university. Interesting.
The guy that wrote a 2000 page suicide note before shooting himself in the head.
That's what I call stalling.
Lol.
Good joke, Tam!

It was a joke, Planck :-)
Harvard - so what.
Philosophy major - idk, those guys, you know, not really always there.
Those are hollow credentials unless the work itself is good, then they back him up.
You have no idea how long it took him, do you? If it was his thesis, that could've been ten years of his life's work.
Just read about him. Psychology major, and he worked on his tome for five years, making plans to end his life when he finished it.
Did you read his note? I read some of it, I liked it, too much repeats though
u/onearmplank said he was a philosophy major.
That's sooooooooooooo click-bait.
He wrote a book titled, "Suicide Note".
[cringe on you]
