"don't kill yourself!"

[Ssname]

I can totally see what you mean but on the flip side of that is how did we all find the forum. I'm guessing through google like I did. A bit of a catch 22 I think.

First of all I believe in people's right to end their lives.
I do think though that we tend to at least subconsciously minimise the effect of our death in our minds to try and make it easier. When people say that no one will care I don't believe them. I believe that they believe it and it is real for them but I also believe they are (probably) incorrect

I wish you were right. In my case, no one will care. Nobody. I know it's hard to accept that this can happen in life, no family, no friends, no pals, no pets. But it does. Reality.

That's how I feel about my family and most of my friends regarding when I die someday, if I go before they do. I also feel I don't care genuinely for most if not all others. It's like I'm just numb from life's disappointments and trials, but I still feel pain when I cause harm or upset someone. I've just also decided that it's good to be honest about where these anti-death feelings and thoughts come from, and to question everything. The only person I think my death would really affect for awhile is my current love, who really seems to love me. I love him as best as I know how to love, but it's complicated to me as with anything else, things I am supposed to feel and be like don't come as naturally as the various pleasures and feelings.

Maybe I'm just being more honest than many who compartmentalize love and sensuality, but there's all sorts of people on a spectrum, for asexuals to sex addicts, aromantics, pan this, pan that. Sorry I lost my train of thought. But I'm glad a place like this exists too, a welcome counterbalance to the so-called tyranny of the majority it seems, the seemingly unquestioning masses. Admittedly for me, the pain of dying and fear of the unknown keeps me here. I tend to still think something supernatural exists as per NDE accounts. I could distance myself sufficiently from those in my life if I wanted to in order to CTB someday, my boyfriend is really the only one I would fear hurting with suicide, and maybe one friend. Sorry for my verbosity, mental illness or ego issues, many might say. Takes all kinds in this life, viva la difference, no? xD Anyway, welcome!

When parents brought a child to the world, they thought only of themselves and what they wanted.

If a child is in deep suffering, that's wht he should do, think only about his well-being. They didn't ask for that life after all.

Guys I don't think this forum being indexed on google is a good thing.

Why not?

I can't wait till assisted suicide is legalized in all of the state's. Letting someone suffer from a terminal disease is cruel. Even taking care of severely disabled people is wrong. They are suffering immensely everyday and can't say or do anything about it. No one wants someone else to feed shower feed them and take them to the toilet everyday. That is not living because that's exactly what people in assisted states don't want. Also if you don't have a future as a young person where all forms of therapy and treatment have failed, then what more is there to do but death. You shouldn't have to suffer like an animal and then take your own life in secret like an animal. Sometimes death is the best and only choice. Society needs to stop with all this legislative bullshit that takes forever. It's cruel to make some people go on.
