Would you still be suicidal if you woke up a multi billionaire tomorrow?

[peacefulhorizons]

Would I be somewhat happier? Yes. But at the end of the day, my problems can't be fixed with my money. Sadly.

 

[Pryras]

Postpone and spend the money

 

[Isadeth]

More than likely I would still want to ctb. However, I would have the means and assets to have a much more peaceful passing. N or example.

 

[RL95]

No, I would not want to ctb anymore, money would fix most of my problems

 

[rikamonie]

id still ctb, money means nothing to me it cant fix the pain in my heart

 

[WinterFaust]

Money would make a huge difference for me. I wouldn't magically stop being suicidal with more money than I could count but being able to clear my debts and be financially secure would be a big deal. It would take a lot of pressure off for finally finding work and doing something meaningful, I could live on my own, afford the food I enjoy and be able to pursue better treatment for both for my physical health and mental health concerns. I'd be able to be independent again.

Of course, it would be unlikely to fix my hearing loss. Or bring back the people who've moved on. But I wouldn't have to be a burden anymore.

 

[Saga]

Would definitely still be suicidal money doesnt matter...in that case it would be easier for me to acquire what i need to ctb

 

[draw a circle]

I would still have my anxiety and depression but with that much money I'd be able to afford therapy and take a year or two off from college with less guilt. So I probably would still be suicidal, only maybe less self-destructive and with better life management, and yeah I'd live a bit longer, if only to take a rest from life.

 

[Sullun]

Money cant buy happiness, but would you feel inclined to live longer?

For as long as money can't buy a time machine, being the richest man in the world wouldn't change my mind. This is not a life I want to live, and my continuing to live is causing distress and hurt to good people. I want to die and die soon.

If anyone can help me please get in touch.

 

[MZALA]

Nope

 

[andresantosfx]

It would help me a lot. You can't buy happiness but it helps to find it in the best places. lol I've lost my job and running out of money and the fact that I don't know what to do is a massive incentive for me to ctb.

 

[Firefly1]

I don't think so. Not that money has got everything to my feeling this way but yes it certainly contributes a lot. What rich people probably don't get is that i don't want money to buy happiness I NEED it to buy the things the basic necessities that help me survive and that in turn certainly won't make me sad/depressed. Hell today you need money for respect for love. Even family only goes so far to accept you if you don't have something you can give them at least that's what happened with me. So yeah while it may not immediately make me love life it will make me take a considerably long pause and think about things

 

[Whitewash11235814]

Ideally I'd like to get good at something and make money that way, but nowadays I see an ever decreasing want to do anything for this world. And I feel like one enjoys the things they're good at, and I'm not good at anything in particular. I have a competitive spirit and don't find the flow of "creating" that fun but I must admit I haven't tried many things yet.

In short, I don't know. I'm in a very tough place, and I don't know what I truly want or can handle.

 

[everydayiloveyou]

Money does buy happiness! if I had even 100k/year I would get good mental health care, a puppy, a house for my family, plastic surgery, travelling, fun, security, etc etc. Millions or billions would be even better, especially if I didn't have to work anymore. Being broke is basically the root of everyone's problems. Imagine how much better things could be if money wasn't in the way of getting medical care, leaving abusive situations, or just having a decent life in general. Having no money is like having no escape, no wonder people who are already internally struggling feel even more hopeless when faced with money problems.

Mental illness is chronic so I guess that can't be fully fixed, but with money you get to see the best of the best in psychiatry and counselling. I'd definitely wait til I was 45 or so before I ctb, and I know I'll die happy af.

 

[Sinai Silence]

I wouldn't find any gratification in material wealth. Obviously having a private island, personal jet and an armada of sports cars is nice but I know deep down it won't solve my personal problems.

The power that comes with that type of money changes a person too. We've had our fair share of deplorable human beings at the top one percent. I wouldn't want to be someone who had everything and didn't do anything for people who had nothing.

I'd just dedicate my time and money to philanthropy, once I felt I had made a big enough mark on humanity and the planet. Then I'd feel comfortable to ctb. So I would last longer than currently planned, only because I had the responsibility to do the right thing.

 

[Existingnotliving]

Honestly I really think I would. Money can't buy happiness. However it could give me a better chance of living maybe. I'd pay for the best mental health help and see if that would help.

 

[voyager (D)]

Money can't buy happiness. But if you are unhappy, it is better to cry in a taxi than in a bus.

 

[jameslb72]

NO, because i would have the money to cut the situation out of my life that has helped make me like this. And if i still suffered anhedonia i could afford all the chemical help in the world to lift my mood .

 

[lex]

Would change nothing for me. Maybe I'd feel a little less stressed overall. Though, I wished the problems I have could just be solved with money.

 

[Cashewmilk]

Hell no! I'd save my peaceful suicide for the right time, like illness or the world ending lol... well I guess that means I'd still be suicidal. I'd definitely live until 50 and ctb very nicely and fast, so many options with that kind of money, could literally buy a doctor to give you barbiturates... I'm lucky enough to still be in decent health, I can walk and have no open wounds or broken disabled bones etc, my insides are OK not yet destroyed, still have all my teeth, I'm still young. That's really all that matters in my life. If I had tons of money like that my life would be close to perfect, but I'd still think about suicide and still respect it, I'd definitely still plan my suicide but it'd be put on hold, because let's face it, no amount of money can fix the world. I would be very selfish and ignore the bad things, but they still happen, animals will always suffer, children will always suffer.

 

[RRH]

Money used to be my main stressor, but all the money in the world won't help me this time.

 

[daboobybubibaba]

Yeah I'll even quit being suicidal alltogether. I have plans I gotta carry out, and billions of dollars is money more than I ever needed. Of course the plan is still suicidal in nature, but if I succeed, this world would've been much much better off, and if I fail, heyho I can upgrade from either butchering my arteries, hanging on a rustyass railing, or mangling up my neck and all those get uploaded to liveleak to cocaine overdose, gunshot to the head, assisted suicide package complete with music to die to and a funny tape recording to put in my casket with complete privacy protection.

Me dying isn't for your entertainment, society. Hell maybe I oughta swallow a lot of timed C4 before I jump off a roof and blow up my dead body in public, sure I get uploaded to liveleak as a squirming, humming, convulsing dead man, but hey I get to fuck with everyone's day, that's enough for me. Get entertained you pieces of shit, how'd you like my nutsack fragment on your precious bitch bag aye?

 

[HillWhereIWillRest]

I would definitely still want to CTB. Money doesn't buy a new pancreas, a functioning thyroid, healthy adrenals, a renewed bowel, a balanced mind. I wish my problems were solved with money. Not even with medicines can they be solved!

 

[inactive]

I would still be 99% as suicidal as before.

 

[bigdog]

I would hire best possible specialists and care so I would still be frustrated but with new technology and money they can even implant new neurons to your brain or shit like that
So it definitely would help

 

[Intheo]

In my case, it would likely solve my most immediate problem. With that kind of money, I could probably buy my way out of the predicament I'm in. I could use that money to start a lifestyle and venture I really want. I do not expect anything to give me the answer to existential problems, but with lots of money and distractions, I would probably prolong my existence long enough to die naturally.

 

[Deleted member 18655]

For a short while, until the emptiness returns which would probably be worse than before.

 

[XYZ]

Nah, don't think so. I'd party like it's 1999 and buy everyone I know houses, cars and whatever the hell they want.

 

[Superdeterminist]

While there's no way to know for sure, sadly, I suspect my desire for death would persist, even with such great fortune.

 

[ravergirl]

Long enough to go on one hell of a bender, but I'd still be suicidal.
