Discussion Things that stop you from ctb?

[Caustic Cardinals]

Cannabis has stopped me many times. However if I use it too much it contributes to my depression.

Had a bad experience with pot. I think stimulants are more my thing (aside from alcohol). I want to try CBD oil though.

Good stuff

Probably the only thing really stopping me at this point is the fact that I don't have the money to ctb, and that there's a few family members that I'd like to see for the last time.

I wish I had a good answer. I think there's always a small sliver of hope for me that I hold onto. Once that slips away, the bus will have arrived.

I don't think anything really stops anyone its more an excuse, for me though I'm just finishing my plan and ending my life before I ctb. (Move out from house,sell things,MAKE sure NO one will miss me,etc,etc)

It's a stupid answer but looking for forever homes for my cats. I know some will argue that cats (or any animals for that matter) do not have the same consciousness as humans do and it doesn't matter in the end as they'll end up in the streets and survive. I don't like the thought of abandoning them.

I agree.
That's what I thought 2nights ago when I didn't go through with it.

It's Not Stupid

abandonment sucks your cats deserve a home glad you care for them like that

It really sucks. I know the feeling all too well and I don't want them to go through something traumatic like that.

my therapist thinks I should get a companion dog....

 

[jaemus12]

1. I don't have a solid plan yet.
2. Iam a pussy and afraid of pain.
3. I need a 99.9% certainty I'll die on my attempt.

What do you think? If you're 100% sure that you want to ctb, I wouldn't get a dog tbqh. In the end our pets are our responsibilities. Unlike humans, pets love us unconditionally.

thats is why I don't have one. or an plants

I have a 75% fleshed out plan and a backup one, but I want to be sure
and I have a cat who both adores me (and pines when I'm away) and I adore him. He's 11 though so he'll die sooner rather than later. I've had him since he was 4 weeks old!

My first cat just died 3 weeks ago(ish) and he was 14.

I'm also afraid of the "after." or the lack thereof. Like, it's stupid to be afraid since everyone dies eventually. But the idea of simply "not existing" freaks me the fuck out. Plus I grew up super christian (I most definitely am NOT now - and not sure I ever really bought into it) and the whole heaven/hell/you go to hell if you kill yourself and the idea of being flayed forevermore sounds a lot worse than my current life. But I don't REALLY believe in it...it's just in the back of my mind.

Idk why but I just lol'd at 'flayed forevermore' ... Sorry about your first cat. I grew up Catholic and the 'Catholic guilt' is always there nagging away. I feel you.

My mother, she could not stand it.

 

[Sundayafternoon]

Fear and laziness.

Fear and laziness.

my mom told me before she died "its ok to be afraid"

And now that you've said that last statement, be prepared to pull a Rasputin.
