    Just about every single attempt to self-terminate stems from a systemic flaw or imbalance in the fragile human form. Pretty much always treatable. What seems logical now might seem silly later. Don’t let irrational mentality run your life or your death.

    Also, there are people who oppose you. Fuck those people. Your life ending would benefit them, therefor you can never die.

    There are so many ways to be a hero for those around you. Why end your life when you could dedicate your life to help those in need? When you feel at your lowest, remember that there is someone, right now, who wants to know and believe in you and who hopes that you could do your very best to help them and others.

    This is intended to be motivating. Instead of leaving a hole in the world, you could become a role model for others.

    all the meals you’ll miss.

    all the movies you won’t see.

    all the porn you’ll miss.

    all the awkward conversations you won’t start on purpose with people stuck in really long elevator rides.

    all the banks you won’t rob.

    all the people you’ll never flip off for cutting you off.

    all the drugs you won’t take.

    all the reasons. life is wide and varied, tired of how your life is? be brave, get creative. but most of all

    have fun.

    edit: best elevator story I have. I was riding up a slow asf elevator at a friends apartment and this middle aged woman and her little poodle got on with me. she was making small talk with me and I asked her what breed her dog was. Some kind of poodle mini mix idk. I seriously looked up at her and told her when I lived in Vietnam my neighbors served me poodle. the taste was amazing, it practically melted in my mouth and went really well with the broth they had.

    the look on her face was…disturbed. once I was done explaining the succulent meal she called me disgusting. I asked her why, everyone has had noodles at some point. she stood there, dumbfounded and said nothing to me before I got off.

    awkward situations are like…the best to get you out of a negative space.

    For me it’s new Silent Hill games. Also the hope that one day i’ll have friends and a partner. It might help if I left the house. Anyway, at the very least don’t give up before you’ve really tried. Maybe I’m projecting but I hope this helps. Please don’t kill yourself if you’re thinking about it.

    I actually do support the idea that we have a right to end our lives on our own terms.

    But, I would say to anyone asking this question that there is so much good left undone in the world that they could make happen.

    If you can, don’t end your life. Donate it.

    Simple: death will come, it is a guarantee you get by being born. So, unless your life is hell (diseases can do that easily, including mental ones) and it clearly won’t end (or anyway not before you become broken beyond repair), why not see some life before it ends

    I’m not going to pretend it’s a good answer because it cuts in many directions, but the following has been my thinking on this:

    Because if you have nothing to live for, you have nothing holding you back from taking massive risks. Take the massive risk over your own life. Suicide can come later, once you’ve done something risky and cool first that requires a meatsuit. As far as we know you only get one of those, and there’s far more than you might think that only requires one of 'em and infinite risk tolerance.

    Not comfortable with the risk? Why, if you have nothing to live for? Tease that out and you can work in the other direction.
