Do I even have the right to wish I were dead?

[Life is life]

Do I even have the right to wish I were dead? I mean, I go to a school with a good education. Money has never been a problem. If someone else lived my life, I'm sure they would be grateful and happy. But But I wish I had never been born. I can't remember any event in my life that was particularly unfair to me. I have no excuse to write this text let alone for my desire to die and my antisocial behavior.

You earned this right when you were born, there's no suicidal checklist, you don't have to compare lives or suffer an exact amount to justify your wish to die. Don't invalidate yourself.

In modern society, no. I said I wished I was dead and they locked me up for a week until I lied to them and then they charged me two grand.

so sorry. i knew they would give you a fine. just didn't know how much. i've been fined for... let's say stuff much worse than that. the fine was a slap on the wrist in comparison.

i feel like this all the time. it fucking sucks. like on paper i have a "good life" and here i am stuck feeling the way i do and wanting to ctb. i feel so guilty about it everyday, like my brain is always just telling me "u have nothing to be sad about, ur selfish, ur ungrateful, etc"
and it drives me crazy. i dont know how to stop it.

It's always a valid way to feel, one shouldn't have to feel grateful for this existence they couldn't have possibly asked for in the first place. I would personally see non-existence as being preferable under all circumstances and it isn't like any of us are obligated to continue existing here anyway.
