Venting The guilt of leaving people behind

[GUZMA]

There are so many people who I know would actually miss me and a few who might, I think I'm starting to understand who people say suicide is so selfish but

Is it really that selfish when it can save me?

I don't believe in a god or anything but I pray that I'll be able to see them one day again, when I'm away from the pain.

I also struggle a lot with that. I hope the people I care about don't take it too hard.

I also think about this a lot, but on second thought I think they will just be angry at me and hate me forever so they wont be sad

Anger can never be grasped for that long, if anything they will be numb to it if not sad, trust me, people around me who have takes their lives cannot go a day without being mourned by everyone they ever met

I belive that this is true for those people, but one of my parents committed and I remember everybody just being angry and noone really mourning aside from me and they were a amazing person too. Its different for everybody unfortunately

My family I'm close with is the only reason I haven't ended it yet. I don't want to put them through that.

If a person close to you - such as a friend or romantic partner - leaves your life or "cuts" you off, is it wrong of them to do so? Many would say that it depends on the reason(s) for them doing so, but the general consensus (from personal experience), is also that other people do not have to stay in your life at all - no matter how much you care about them; this is a form of leaving someone else behind, but is it considered selfish? Unlikely. So why must others expect the same from you?

that's why i wish i was alone. it would make everything so easy. i always imagined suicide in the distant future when i'm all alone and cut myself off from everyone. but i'm being forced to commit now. by my body. sucks

But you're going to leave people behind if you play out your life.
