Does anyone else just have thoughts of doing reckless shit like skydiving or thrill seeking things in general so that if you do die it hopefully might not affect those around you as much compared to if you were to commit suicide? I don’t know…

I have thought about it. I really have. I used to be always suicidal in a big way. Like wanted to end it directly. I even tried a few times and wound up hospitalized because if it. After having some failed suicide attempts. I did get help and I am going on with my life…. and it has taken me a good year to get my family to trust me that I wont try it again. Then YES, I have had thoughts of maybe just doing crazy things like sky-diving or rock climbing and just hoping that I could potentially die that way and it would be more like an accident instead of A direct suicide attempt. I even thought about getting in my car and driving recklessly along a road with a steep cliff drop off… so if I crashed and went over it would look like an accident > but so far I haven’t gotten up the balls to do it. LOL
Interesting thought.
You’re right; the death would be “processed” differently.
Although they’d still think “what a tragedy”, they’d also probably say something like “well, at least he died doing what he loved.”
I have thought of it… but then maybe you’d get some kind of high for every time you’ve escaped the boney hand of death! Then life might feel worth living. I know just recently I got out and had an adventure with my family and at times I could have gotten hurt but I made it through without doing that. Not only did I feel glad… I kind of feel like doing more challenging stuff now. So… I guess that’s where the term adrenaline junkie comes from. Ther’s that song… Live like your dying. Maybe that’s just what we want … to live more…hurt less.
