Sad truth about suffering.

[Hotsackage]

Not sure if this is a goodbye thread or not. Just have nowhere else i can share this. There is nothing spiritual about existence. My own suffering has made me drawn this conclusion. As i have exhausted all resources to make peace with my mental torment, have studied numerous spiritual traditions and and their practices and the sad conclusion is they are not applicible anymore to my dementia. I see beauty in purposelessness, we are insignificant and rare but there is only one true bliss and that is of nonexistence. May i burn out rather then fade away.

The thought of no longer existing brings me a lot of comfort, life is so painful and depressing but in comparison to the eternity of death, life seems so temporary and meaningless. More than anything I wish that I never existed in the first place. I'm sorry that you are in such an unbearable situation, and thank you for sharing your thoughts. I hope you find the peace and freedom from suffering you are looking for. I wish you the best.

I know the feeling you're describing. I think the torture and suffering people experience makes all the bliss, happiness and peace in this world meaningless. No amout of happiness is worth the suffering people can go through. No amount of peace can ever surmount the torture experienced. The true and only bliss I can conceptualize of is complete annihilation.

 

[Superdeterminist]

I definitely feel what you've described. Our suffering is just not addressed, not justified, not explained by any of our ideas. It sucks the magic out of living, and we can do nothing except live with it. It's like we're just pebbles on a riverbed being knocked about, no one is looking out for us, we collectively have been tortured, raped, and murdered, and we will continue to suffer in these ways, without ever being recompensed in any way that could even begin to make up for it.
