person: why are you suicidal? why don’t you think of your future?
me: I am thinking of my future. Why are you in denial of yours?
Do you think there would be less stigma around suicide if our culture wasn’t so repressed around the subject of death?

YES! Not just suicide but all forms of death. Our species has not learned to grasp with the concept of death. People won’t talk about death, if you do they shun the subject, avoid it, pretend it doesn’t exist. They think if you’re suicidal you’re crazy.
“Why do you want to die?”
“I don’t have a choice.”
You get it?
Death is the most natural thing that happens to us.
“Death is certain. Life is not.”
I can’t wait to die.
“The fact is that we only fully arrive at ourselves in a freely chosen death. It, and only it, is “la minute de la vérité” (the moment of truth)”
yes
I would recommend trying not to pay attention to what our culture says.
