2 recent doctor suicides:
1 because affair was gonna tell wife
1 because wife was gonna leave with kid

1 recent murse suicide:
Baught 4 flats with variable rates, had to move now because rates unexpectedly rose, brother was much more successful

So those are reasons for some people

As someone who damn near actually did it, but didn't obviously, sometimes people get to a point where they just don't want to go on, the prospect of waking up tomorrow is literally worse than just blowing your brains all over the place, at least in your head. Unless he left a note we will never know, the last thought before death is usually private.

Pretty much this. Imagine we had a choice. We were put on this earth as we are today and God said:
ok how’s this? You have to work and struggle for everything and everyone you know and love fucking dies. And you fucking die. And you get sick. And you grow older and uglier and shittier every year. And nothing is fair, chaos and randomness are the deciding factor of everything. How is that?

Idk about you but i’d be like fuck no! reset! i don’t want to get old, i don’t want my loved ones to die, that sounds like shit. This is like the Dark Souls of existence options.

But we don’t have a choice. All we can do is unplug this bullshit.

Averring "life fucking sucks" is a profoundly unsatisfying, unscientific method of fixing belief; in Peircean epistemology -- chiefly, *The Fixation of Belief* -- , the "a priori method." The claim, much like all claims coming from a place of wisdom, is meaningless and vacuous.

“The so-called ‘psychotically depressed’ person who tries to kill herself doesn’t do so out of quote ‘hopelessness’ or any abstract conviction that life’s assets and debits do not square. And surely not because death seems suddenly appealing. The person in whom Its invisible agony reaches a certain unendurable level will kill herself the same way a trapped person will eventually jump from the window of a burning high-rise. Make no mistake about people who leap from burning windows. Their terror of falling from a great height is still just as great as it would be for you or me standing speculatively at the same window just checking out the view; i.e. the fear of falling remains a constant. The variable here is the other terror, the fire’s flames: when the flames get close enough, falling to death becomes the slightly less terrible of two terrors. It’s not desiring the fall; it’s terror of the flames. And yet nobody down on the sidewalk, looking up and yelling ‘Don’t!’ and ‘Hang on!’, can understand the jump. Not really. You’d have to have personally been trapped and felt flames to really understand a terror way beyond falling.”

>Nooo my loved ones will die
If you were dead then you wouldn't even be able to love them.
>Nooo I need to work
only half of your time a day and you get weekends + vacations.
>Nooo I'll get old
Being old is not that bad unless you get dementia or something. You'll be the wisest around, and will be able to loce without the fear of losing your loved ones because you'll die first. Unless your family locks you up in a retirement home.
>everything is decided by chaos
No it isn't
>the dark souls of existence
In levels of difficulty I'd say it's more like the Celeste of existence

the thing that really contends with this for me is childhood. my kids are young still, and completely carefree. not worried about any of that bullshit at all, full of happiness and love and having fun and laughing. Being able to give a person a good childhood might just be the correct response to this, it is a period of time completely absent of the tragedy

Retards who kill themselves are immature.
Unless you are in some favelan prison being sodomized with glass for the enjoyment of the other prisoners then you got no excuse.

yeah i would agree. I read outside a lot so hear passing conversations. I hear how grown women talk to children in the most genuinely caring and loving ways and recognize that my mother or father never once talked to me like that and i think that plays a lot into my problems in life. they were way too inept and dysfunctional and that has had an enormous impact on my later life

There's nothing to live for anymore. Your family is mean, you don't trust any of your friends, you have nothing to love. Worst of all, you don't even love yourself because you don't like yourself for whatever reason. So, even if you work you don't really have anything worth spending on. Well, at least these are my reasons. So, I was like why live? Why live for no reason?

Why don't I have anything to love?
Because I think nobody deserve it. Come to think of it some of us grew in shithole with shit upbringing.

t. Used to be suicidal af

My cure: Religion. Because it taught me self-love.

In the end, I work to fix my traits that I don't like. I went experimental. My soul yearns to travel the world. My curiosity is like a friend, it would raise me up from my mourn. I say, hmm, maybe if I reach a certain milestone, I'll come to find there's probably something to live for.

I haven't find new people irl yet, but I became more secure with myself when interacting with people I distrust, like my family and friends.

Needless to say, I don't think I'll be any suicidal soon. Because, I think with religion, and its guidance, life could go better. Sometimes in life you just need like an instruction for it. Without one, you tend to break things.


I'm not sure how would this be useful to you but that's what I went through. Now life feels just better. I don't see any reason to be suicidal anymore regardless of horrible things that I went through because, there's just so many things you haven't experienced yet, so many cure you haven't tried yet, so many flavors you haven't tasted yet, so many colors you haven't seen... So many cats you haven't pet, so many books to read. It sounds trivial or even materialistic for some people but, aren't curiousity counter materialism?

I used to care A LOT about my parents shitty ways of parenting. But one day I decided I'm done with being depressed from it.

So what I do is:
>Not repeat their mistakes
>Glad that I recognize their toxicity

It decrease my depressive symptoms, when I narrow my options to these two conclusions. Trust me, I used to be very angry about this, rebellious af. But now as an adult, all I see is broken people with broken thoughts. I wish the best for them. It's not my fault for their ways. So, I just live my life with utmost happiness, I cared but, not to the point that I hurt myself.

Picrel isn't me, but that's how I feel now.

Your life should end when its existence becomes contrary to your purpose.
I believe I live in an evil society & feel deep guilt to being productive in it. Sometimes I think the world would be better if I died rather than going to work tomorrow; but Idk, there is no certainty.
