Discussion Suicide is okay

[Sadbanana]

I don't think there is anything wrong about it. Death is natural part of life and it's inevitable. There is absolutely no difference between dying right now, or dying in 30 years. In the end we will lose absolutely everything. So there is nothing permanent to lose. After we die, it won't metter what we achieved, how much we enjoyed our lives or which part we got to explore and on which we missed out. There will not be a you to remember it anyway.

I personally believe life is only worth living when you are enjoying it. If you only keep living for others you are making yourself into their tool for happiness. If you are not happy, or if there is a lot of suffering lying ahead, there is nothing wrong with deciding to check out.

People say suicide is irrational. But it's strange that only humans out of all animals do it. I think the reason why we commit suicide is because our more developed brain can percieve time and abstract concepts. So it's capable of making the calculation that when we are suffering now and it seems it's only going to get worse, it's not worth it.

I'm not saying that everyone who is suicidal has made the correct decision. But I think a lot more people than society is willing to admit are better of dead.

Of course. I agree with you. But there's too much taboo, perhaps religious or moral or just pure lack of understanding. I wish everyone could think like you and everyone else here.

For me it'll always be the positive solution to find peace from this existence so torturous, cruel and dreadful that I just always saw as a mistake, for me non-existence is just all that's desirable, it solves everything for me as after all if I don't exist I cannot suffer, there is no suffering in the peace of non-existence where this existence that never should had been imposed is all gone and forgotten about, non-existence is just all I hope for.

To exist truly is an abomination and it's so painful and dreadful how the suffering and torture of existing can continue for decades longer just for one to face the terrible agony of old age, to exist will always feel like the most terrible, undeserved punishment to me.
