Discussion I hope there is an afterlife

[SUlClDE]

it's scary to think I won't exist after I die, I have been an atheist since birth but I'm now slowly opening up to the idea of an afterlife.

But I guess we will die someday anyway whether if it's suicide or not and I will have to overcome this fear.

There's some things in life that I enjoy that I find hard to give up and I guess it's just an instinct to stay alive.

I already don't enjoy living and I for sure know my life will get a lot worse in a few years so suicide seems logical

Im from a former Soviet nation, conscription is still a thing here, I'm finishing school in a few years. I have the lowest grades in my class and I'm sure I won't make it into university and the army will take me, my parents have left me at a young age and I live with my other family members, they have high expectations of me and will kill me if they found out how I have been doing

If you're thinking about this out of fear, perhaps it's worth looking at the fear itself first, before deciding what to believe.
If there is something after death, it's not fear that will make it real. And, if there isn't, believing won't change that fact.
I don't think we need to invent an 'after' for the present to have value. Perhaps it's precisely the fact that it ends that makes this important.
If you want to believe, that's fine—but try to see if it comes from conviction or just fear. Because those are very different things.

I know what you mean. I'm afraid that everything I love will disappear forever, but at the same time it feels good to think that after this there's nothing more. I won't cry, I won't feel pain, and all those things that I hate will disappear with me. The fear will vanish forever.
