Many of us want to die and have for a while. What's your personal reason for sticking around? Lack of accessibility, desire to hold out a bit longer, needing time to figure out more logistics, waiting for a partner, etc? Personally, I am waiting until I have no more money for rent and then I will likely do partial hanging since it's the most accessible to me right now (even if I prefer nitrogen inhalation).

i'm not sure. i suppose i'm waiting until i have enough money for the chemicals needed for CO since they're pretty hard to get where i live. logistics aside, i have three people in my life i don't feel comfortable leaving on their own:

- 1st one is my best friend, she lives with me and is very dependant on me and emotionally vulnerable. she's already gone through the loss of one of the most important ppl of her life less than 2 years ago and hasn't recovered from it yet. i don't want to leave her alone in this big flat of ours, with all the memories we shared still being there as a constant reminder. however, she will probably have moved away in less than one year. that's when i'm planning to commit suicide.

- 2nd one is one the only friend i have in my class (i'm in uni). we both kinda dislike the other people in my class so we only have each other for support during classes. most of our group projects we do together and we rely a lot on each other. i do not want to leave her alone for the rest of the school year, she's amazing. by next year she'll have moved to another city so i'll be on my own.

- 3rd one is another friend in uni but who isn't in my class. i'm pretty sure i'm her closest friend at uni and i really care about them. They have been one of the few people during these few last years to make life worthwhile, but they'll likely be gone too by next year.

all three of these friends will have left my life by next year because they'll have moved. i'll be on my own to commit suicide without fearing of leaving them behind on their own. i wish on all three of them the best lives one can have, god knows they deserve it.

I don't want my suicide to hurt my Dad. I can't say I'm not fearful also but, that's the main obstruction. Less so are work commitments- which I'd probably still honour. But, my fortitude is wearing thin now to be honest. I'm not sure I'm willing to keep holding on.

I only continue to suffer as I'm so cruelly denied the option to painlessly cease existing so I can finally be at peace from the dreadful, torturous and futile abomination of existence that I always saw as a mistake.

I always suffer so much from how I cannot just access a painless, guaranteed way to cease existing with the suffering and torture of human existence seen as to force and prolong no matter what, it's all so cruel to me and as long as I exist I'll just wish and hope to never suffer again, for me non-existence really is all that's desirable, I'd just never wish for this existence that just causes so much suffering all for the sake of it and problems there were never a need for with no limit as to how much one can be tortured.

i feel you. my dad is probably the only person i'm close to in my family, and he's really done a good job given the circumstances. i wish you to find the strength you need, whether it's strength to hold onto this world or strength to leave it

I'm sticking around because of a few reasons:
1. I have a bad habit of taking too many notes about too many things. I'm digitizing them right now as I type this/procrastinate a little. Once I'm done organizing them, which should take a month or few, I'm going to move onto the next stage. It's at 600k words lmao.
2. After I'm done with that I'm going to clean up my belongings. I will also take a break from the computer.
3. Then I'll read through some of my notes and decide if I want to try to make any of them real. Right now the answer is probably no. But I want to have everything in front of me before I do something. My plan should be completely finalized by this point.
4. If the answer really is no. Then I'll see if there's any games I would like to finish before I go. This might take a month or a week depending.
5. Ctb.

I recognize that all of this is really a form of advanced procrastination. But if I do it this way, I really will have no more 'what-ifs'. My dates to hit are either christmas of this year. Or next year on my birthday. Christmas this year would be nice for me. I always liked the music, cold, and snow. It's my go to date. It'll also be the last christmas before I turn 20. It's gotten through my head that it would be worse if I lived until 20. I don't really know why. It's just more time for me to be proven a total fuckup I guess.

I was delaying it for some time. But I went outside after trying to stay inside for a few months, and I really thought I was finally okay with being a weirdo. Then I saw other people my age with friends at the grocery store. It took a lot out of me to not cry in the store. Life really hits me like this sometimes where I finally think I can cope, and then I get an uppercut punch to the face. Every single time. For a few months at the start of this year, I really didn't think about suicide at all. I stayed inside and ignored everything. I still felt like shit each and every day. But I could do it if I never had to go outside again. Maybe I really would 'recover' if I could get everything delivered now and forever. But that's a whole lot of work for a whole lot of nothing.

I don't want to hurt my parents and my grandma is very old so she might die from shock alone if I ctb. But every day is unbearable mental pain and I cannot hold out any longer. I also made a promise to my psychiatrist that I won't do anything to myself but I don't know if I can keep that promise because again I'm just a financial burden on my parents and not even that good of a person, so the world won't lose much by my absence.

The fear of failure and ending up in a worse situation than I am now is the main reason I'm still here.

Funny enough I am waiting until I run out of money, which is a nice external deadline that ensures that I have no other choice, I feel like cornering myself like that will help with overcoming any SI in my way.

600K words?? Dude that's longer than War and Peace! I would say that's the furthest thing from procrastination having written that much. I'm a writer myself and I'm nowhere close to that. Also, I'm curious what you mean by making any of them real?

mostly that I am a coward but also that I don't want my family to be subjected to being mocked and shamed for having a tranny as a child. At least if i live I can hide in my room and no one can know I exist but if I die there would be investigations and it may get picked up on the news and I don't want that for my family

I am legitimately afraid that I will have to come back to a very similar life and relive everything again. Yes, I believe 100% in reincarnation and that if we suicide, we have to return to a very similar life if not the same life.

No thanks!!!

What I meant by procrastination was procrastination of my suicide, not of my work. "Making them real", I have a videogame that I need (want to) make. I have the technical knowledge, I have the designs, the mechanics, the story, some things programmed already. But I keep hitting roadblocks because when I look at the end of the line, I'll still be the friendless loser regardless of what I make. I feel that I want to make those things, but I don't want to try, because at the end I know I'll still be unhappy. I'll probably be even angrier then, because I'll have hated doing all that effort for nothing. If I wasn't a fucked up autistic, then I would be okay with slaving away. But I have no reason to motivate myself. Motivation doesn't exist in a vacuum. People have friends, family, or love to get them through hard times, or give them a reason to work hard. I just have an empty room. After I've been at that stage before, I don't want to try again.

I go through multiple spirals every day. From being fully aware of my situation, to being able to escape it all momentarily while watching a show as I lose myself, and come crashing back down again. I like finding happy animes that are so cliche, but enjoyable, they make me feel normal when I watch them. But as soon as it ends I cry. It's exhausting, and the only way I get rid of that is by going to sleep and doing it all over again. Every line of code I make, every single character, I keep wondering "who's it all for?". Myself isn't good enough of an answer. Maybe I'll try to build a really creepy para social relationship with a fan base if I ever get the game out. That might satiate me. Idk. That's why I have everything in stages so I can think about it once I get to those points.

A variety of things, but mostly just

-Living with far too many people that I care about and don't want to traumatize with my death
-Lack of accessibility (I want to go for SN, but it's awfully expensive to get and I'm trying to save up enough money to at least pay my boyfriend back for everything I owe him before I CTB)
-Not wanting to traumatize my Dad (My mother died when I was very young, and as his only child, I've always felt an obligation to stay on this Earth so that he doesn't have to outlive both the love of his life AND his kid)

I suppose all of this will go out the window once I get proper access to a method that doesn't sound terrifying and get desperate enough, but for now, I'm pretty much stuck here.
The days leading up to the 25th of september. On the 25th, i'm out.
Funnily enough, that's my birthday AND the day one of my best friends CTB'd last year. Any particular reason you chose that date? I'm curious.
I don't want my suicide to hurt my Dad. I can't say I'm not fearful also but, that's the main obstruction. Less so are work commitments- which I'd probably still honour. But, my fortitude is wearing thin now to be honest. I'm not sure I'm willing to keep holding on.
I understand entirely. I'm my Dad's only child, and pretty much one of the only people he has left since my Mom passed in 2011. My Dad is probably one of the biggest reasons I'm still here.

Yeah, fair enough. I've procrastinated my suicide for many many years due to too many failed attempts. It seems like that's a lot of goals you have though! I think it's worth it to focus on those first before CBT. I really relate to all of this. I always cry when a happy show ends, even just videos too. And my spirals have gotten worse. I will say though, I think yourself is plenty enough of an answer. If not for that, I would love to play your game :)

I would love to read that when you do! I love reading and writing. Kind of my whole deal lol.

Haha yep. Certainly does help. Can't seem to find any employment, so, I guess that's where we're at. I hope you can find a peaceful end, as so many of the more comfortable endings are expensive asf.

The people that I know, relatives included; my possessions, things that I want to do, and what I know; and fear of dying while leaving something behind. I have too many possessions to take care of before I CtB. Maybe the fact that I'd be inflicting trauma upon people that I know when I get around to CtB scares me—I have trauma of my own, and the idea of giving them a burden they'd hold for the rest of their lives just... doesn't sit right with me, as much as I hate them.
