Discussion Do you think that everyone has suicidal thoughts at some point in their life?

[Omar94]

I want to know if you think everyone has them, regardless of frequency and or how intensive. Its related to my note.

Thank you for this site and all the contributions.

I don't see how anyone couldn't possibly wish for death, wanting suicide will always make sense to me in this hellish reality where there is unlimited potential to suffer, we are all destined for nowhere but to die so I would see it as being preferable to exit on my own terms. Existence is a unnecessary burden and the reality is that there could never be any point to any of this, I think it's irrational wishing to delay the inevitable in this world filled with endless harm where all that's inevitable is even more suffering, loss and decay, I have enough awareness to recognise that existence could never be desirable.

I think a solid percentage of people become depressed. Suicidal though especially seriously suicidal. No not a large amount.

I think there's a constant fight between Pro existing and anti existence, we tend to say existence isn't worth risking, but seems the ones who call us depressed or even cowards for not wanting to suffer for the sake of what we see as a very little pay off for what's spent.
Those people who say it's us the world sucks never seen to have suffered themselves. They don't know illness, serious real hopelessness for the future to be better.
The majority of humans should.learn to leave each other the hell alone while we are.in the midst of this spiritual crisis everyone be pointing the finger at one another. I just hope there's an eternal exit. My consciousness never to wake up again.

No. I know people who have never considered suicide even once in their lives. They think it's crazy that someone could feel that way.

This is just my theory that isn't well thought out, but I think it depends on how you feel your emotions. Someone who has an internalising personality is probably more likely to consider suicide. Someone who externalises their emotions might be more likely to consider homicide. Or maybe it depends on if someone is more likely to blame themself or others.

I honestly don't know. It kind of baffles me that someone could go their entire life without thinking it at least once. Still, optimistic people seem like a different species to me- so- who knows?

Yes, I think everyone will at some point. But probably passively for a short period of time.

thank you for the elaborative replies everyone.

Someone could impulsively go "i wish i was dead" if something bad happens, but that does not mean they have suicidal thoughts. I dont believe that moat people are in the position that we are in, no.

I don't think that most people have serious suicidal thoughts where they actually consider going through with it. If they did, they would understand what it is like to have to live like this and there wouldn't be so much stigma.

I think alot of people have the "what if" kinds of thoughts and wonder about how people around them would react but I don't think most people seriously consider it as an actual option. From what I've seen, it seems that most people do want to live and go about their lives without being plagued by suicidal thoughts every waking day.
