Discussion Is it bad that I find suicidal fantasies comforting?

Such as the fantasies that focus on cartoon characters feeling suicidal and committing suicide, just dark stuff like that comforts me.

I don't think so, it helps having these stories to relate to. To see a character go through what we do and see how they carry themselves can inspire us to act in a similar way. What are some characters that you are referring to?

I personally enjoy Khaladin from Stormlight Archive, the character contemplates suicide but chooses to live instead, its a theme carried out in multiple books

Or are you more referring to imagining a character that isn't suicidal, but you imagine them to be?

I'm referring to non suicidal characters and me imagining them to be. Just characters from a lot of cartoons, if not almost every character I know. Even my own characters (which I have a lot of).
