Discussion can we actually enjoy peace after ctb?

[isthisit?]

I've been thinking and now I realise that when I commit ctb then I'll be dead and when I'm dead then I won't be able to enjoy the peace because I won't be existing. So what's the point?

I'm still going forward with my attempt but just wondering.

The point is not to suffer through pain or trauma any longer.

There won't be any "enjoying" anything. It is peace. It is what it is. It's not about enjoying.

i dont know what happens after death, but i know i'll enjoy my journey knowing that ill find peace

Correct. There's no peace, as well as suffering. There's just eternal nothingness. The point of suicide is to stop inevitable and unavoidable suffering.

I compare death to being put under anesthesia - before you know it, you're off into this darkness so profound, and so comforting, yet it can't exactly be felt. When that darkness dissipates upon waking, it feels almost cruel to be here still.

I look forward to when I no longer wake.

Stop questioning death's eternal nothingness and ceased existence.

Yeah, I've had those same exact thoughts. It's frustrating. We won't even get the satisfaction of knowing we did it. Sure, we'll know we're dying, but it's not the same as knowing you're dead.

What happens after death is sth we all don't know and there is no way that we could ever ask someone who did the last step beyond an NDE experience. IT simply comes to beliefs here. YEs your body definitely will stay here and decays as it's just a cluster of atoms nothing else, But what life and awareness and thinking and deciding things what all living creatures do all the time really is, we do not know it. So either this "thing" vanishes or it leaves the body as a kind of energy. We simply don't know it. Only after death we will know it. And I think this is a peaceful experience.

to me, yes i think when you ctb you will find peace. its empty after you ctb, you will be dead theres no more trauma, stress or anything. your just gone. but its better not to question it

no one ever knows what comes after "death". But we do know that there will be no suffering from this world.

This made me realise. God is probably real from personal experience. If I die, especially by suicide, I going to hell. So it's not like death will let me escape, and it will destroy my family. Guess I'll just live out my shitty life for whatever happiness I can grasp for it. But just for now, fucked if I'm going to grind and live morally like I used to now that I have zero prospects.

How do you know that

The reason as to why eternal nothingness is so appealing to me is because it's the absence of everything, I could never want to experience anything, to me peace could never exist as long as one is able to do such a thing. To me there is nothing more ideal than being unable to suffer for all eternity which is what not existing brings. I don't want to "enjoy" anything, I just wish for nothingness.

If your suffering and pain is so severe you will do anything to end it, that's when suicide feels like the only option for so many of us. If you're asking questions like this then maybe suicide isn't the answer for you at this moment in time.

I appreciate we're all here for different reasons. I struggle to understand why some people feel so suicidal and I know that's not fair of me in some ways to judge like that

Yeah, I've had those same exact thoughts. It's frustrating. We won't even get the satisfaction of knowing we did it. Sure, we'll know we're dying, but it's not the same as knowing you're dead.

I get this. I've been thinking how will I know I succeeded and didn't mess it up. It's ridiculous but I think that alot

I'm sorry, but before answering I want to rephrase it, "I do believe that there will be no suffering "from" this world."

I just don't believe in anything aside from eternal sleep. I will only know once I meet Death, but unfortunately, I cannot tell to anybody anymore what's after death, if there is any.
