I am incredibly suicidal and am ready to end my life with an impulsive moment…. but I find myself commenting on other people’s posts about not giving up and to keep fighting. Am I a hypocrite? Perhaps I am so conditioned to think that my life is not worth anything but other’s lives are worth the effort.

No, not hypocritical. There’s nothing wrong with spending your remaining time helping others. That’s kind of my goal, while I’m still preparing myself for my own end.
Good points. God, this is a miserable day. All I look forward to after waking up around noon or 1pm is taking my meds again in 6-7 hours…
I don’t sleep, except for bits here and there. I actually think sleeping is worse than being awake for me. My dreams are very vivid, and they always seem to revolve around things I’d rather not think about. At least when I’m awake I can find something to distract myself sometimes.
True. I have horrible dreams, too. I usually go through sleep/no-sleep cycles. Even though my dreams suck, I would rather stop my horrible mind from thinking by sleeping because thinking tends to get me into a lot of trouble. Ugh.
I am like you. I don’t think we are hypocrites though. Maybe we value other people’s lives more than our own?
I agree. I have absolutely no desire to extend my life any further than I have to, but it dismays me when I think of someone else ending their life.
Yep, me too… My life means nothing to me and I care more about a stranger’s life.
I’ve found that most people who are in our positions tend to be a bit more selfless than others. Maybe that’s the answer to all our problems, we should become self absorbed assholes who don’t care about any one else as long as we’re happy.
Exactly!
