Suppose you didn't have a sick body and you were born under amicable circumstances.

Do you think you could do? Would you like to?

I'd just suffer, the thought of being reincarnated into this cruel and torturous existence where there is no limit as to how much agony one can feel is horrific to me. I don't wish to remember anything about this existence, being conscious and aware is painful for me, instead I just want all to be forgotten about, I simply wish to cease existing, the only relief for me lies in eternal nothingness.

FuneralCity, and you're propably right. As much as I'd personally wish for reincarnation to be true I see no reason for it being true.

I hope death is the end. Reincarnation sounds like hell to me.

No, I'd fuck up in exactly the same ways. With an intact foreskin, on the other hand...

Do you think you could do? Would you like to?
I'm sure I'd find a way to fuck it up somehow.

I'd have more energy to be a wage slave but I still wouldn't want to be a wage slave. I think that a massive reason why people don't contemplate suicide is because of delusion and, due to my neurotype, I'm not deluded when it comes to life and society. Therefore, even if I reincarnate into a different body but keep my memories, I'd still want to kill myself as I'd still know the truth

If I have the same set of "skills" and characteristics then what would happen? It'd be a rewind of time simply. Reviving the suffering once again. So it's an hard pass for me.

All this is hypothetical. I would say yes if everything happens exactly the way it did again and I know the crucial points in life where I have to make the exact opposite decision. In such a case I could better.

If I was rich and didn't have to dedicate decades of my entire life to working, then yes. Otherwise, probably not

Into the same life or, a different one? In either circumstances, maybe knowledge would help out in some regard but still- life is crammed full of shit! People dying, illnesses, bullies, failures. Some stuff is just unavoidable. I don't think knowledge stops you from grieving or feeling hurt or disappointed.

In a way, I've only become more cynical and pessimistic as I've grown older and felt like I understood the 'truth' of how unfair the whole set up is. Maybe it's better to be young and naive. Hope feels more realistic then.

I would be wiser, but I would just mess up in different ways. A fresh start is no guarantee for a better life.

Depends. I would clearly be a very intelligent baby and impress many people.

I mean yeah I would do better, make different mistakes, but couldn't possibly be as bad as the ones I already made.

No. My suicidal feelings are not because of any regrets, I regret almost nothing and would live my life the same way. This world itself is the cause of my depressions, the never-ending suffering and pure evil that gets celebrated every fucking day. I can never be truly happy in a world that isn't like I want it to be.

It sounds like the worst thing that could happen. I think the opposite could work for me. If my memory was wiped clean then maybe I would be able to want to live. As long as my memories are with me though, every morning I'm disappointed to wake up. If I were to start a new life with all this baggage, that would be hell!

Not really. Especially not if I was reborn into modern times. The world is just such a different place from when I was a kid and I'm only 30. The landscape of media, culture, and so many other things I know about have changed completely. Even things like history and math are pretty different in school so I doubt I would be able to succeed academically so my previous knowledge literally doesn't matter. Having my old memories in a child's perspective would also probably just make me even more of a social outcast since I would not like so many things the kids of today love like Skibidi toilet, analog horror, and other stuff.
