    Spite, that’s what your enemy’s want. Don’t give them the fucking satisfaction!

    I want to outlive this shitty marriage I’m stuck in, sort out my finances, and take back my own life. I’m sick of being called a fucking cunt or accused of hiding money or all the shit he’s saying to me, none of which is true. He’s a malignant narcissist and I’m so tired of living like this.

    Just about every single attempt to self-terminate stems from a systemic flaw or imbalance in the fragile human form. Pretty much always treatable. What seems logical now might seem silly later. Don’t let irrational mentality run your life or your death.

    Also, there are people who oppose you. Fuck those people. Your life ending would benefit them, therefor you can never die.

    ¡Think of the society that would crumble if everyone that was an impoverished wage slave ended their life! If even so much as a third to a fifth of the world’s population did it, everything would be ripping apart at the seams pretty quick.

    Food tastes good

    Sunsets are awesome

    Some people are worth being around

    You might mess up the attempt and end up worse off than you are now

    Religion might be right and you end up in the bad place

      Religion might be right and you end up in the bad place

      With modern life being as it is, we would be screwed either way in most religions. Everyone is probably breaking at least a couple of dozen rules in every religion.

      Even if you just need to follow a central “be kind”-rule - how kind is it to buy stuff on Amazon, packed and delivered by wage slaves, which was imported from China (which may include child or slave labour) [or some US states for that matter] while also hurting the environment in the process.

      There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

    My partner and dog would be sad.

    I don’t have nearly enough credit card debt to annoy the cc companies when I die

      Yeah, the biggest 3 links to meaning are our social connections. Children, partner, and pets. Close family/cherished friend can replace one of the three.

    I’m not going to pretend it’s a good answer because it cuts in many directions, but the following has been my thinking on this:

    Because if you have nothing to live for, you have nothing holding you back from taking massive risks. Take the massive risk over your own life. Suicide can come later, once you’ve done something risky and cool first that requires a meatsuit. As far as we know you only get one of those, and there’s far more than you might think that only requires one of 'em and infinite risk tolerance.

    Not comfortable with the risk? Why, if you have nothing to live for? Tease that out and you can work in the other direction.

    Life is the only thing a human is guaranteed to have - and, as far as I’m concerned, we only get it once. To finish it early seems a terrible waste. It’s the only thing we’ll ever get to do. Might as well give it a bit of a go… it’s not like it goes on for ever, anyway.
