i can never decide if these sites are people offering each other support or misery loves company… Â i dont know everything or have all the answers and i am def not some do-gooder positive person to come on here and offer “advice”, i have obviously dabbled with the thought of killing myself (or i wouldn’t be on this site), never actually “officially” tried to end it, but i have most def taken too many pills just to “roll the dice” not caring if i died or not… but my question to people who are seriously considering ending your life (and this is honestly what keeps me on this earth) is what makes you think it is better to be dead??? Â what if it’s worst? Â the truth is, we don’t know what’s on the other side. Â if you are religious, you are going to hell if you take your own life, but we really don’t know what’s out there. Â all the stuff we talk about on this site is all emotional and mental pain. what if u kill yourself and u enter a world with not only emotional and mental pain, but physical pain too? Â and even more emotional pain? Â imagine all your problems you have now and on top of that, excruciating burns or acute pains in your body, physical pain all the time… with no endorphins to kick in. Â or being punished for killing yourself for eternity, in addition to all your current problems. Â u can’t tell me that would be better than living with your current situation, whatever that might be… Â thats why i’m not suicidal. Â i am tired of living and sometimes i really don’t want to live, but i would never kill myself bc i just wouldn’t risk getting in to a worst situation than i am in now. Â bc it can always be worst. Â just something to think about…

I can understand your point. I honestly, however, believe there is absolutely nothing after death. There is no evidence at all that consciousness survives bodily death. I think it’s absolute nothingness after death. And ya know what? Nothingness sounds damn fine to me. Just my 2 cents though.
and to be honest… i would be more inclined to believe it is worst on the other side if u kill yourself. u can’t seriously think that u can end this life that we are supposed to be grateful for every day with no repurcussions? every thing has consequences, specifically escaping from your problems and not dealing with them and i just would not want to risk finding out the consequence for that. for example if u run from the cops you get a higher jail sentence. if u have a cavity and don’t go to the dentist bc u r scared and u don’t like drills, u cld develop a more painful infection than if u just got your cavity filled. i hope and pray that God (or whatever is in charge of everything) would have mercy for those poor souls who felt such great pain that they felt no other choice than to take their own life (i know i would), but what if he doesn’t? what if there is no mercy?? what if everything is black and white and when u break the law u go to jail, don’t care what your story is, good bye.? scary. and something to thnk about before u take your own life.
it seems like it would be nothingness doesn’t it? and of course if it was just nohtingness then yes that would be better to just be asleep than living in our lives that we find so miserable, but then if it was nothingness that would mean that this life was all for nothing? can’t be. why would be go thru all of this… for nothingness?? doesn’t make sense to me. i sit up at night reading about reincarnation and after life etc. bc this shit fascinates me, i am dying to know what comes after life, but well i guess we won’t find out until we die.
