Not really, but I guess it could apply to me if you were to replace ‘Mom and dad will be sad’ with ‘You’ll never be able to enjoy another hot cup of coffee ever again’.
Everyone’s situation is different. I tend to think this as an excuse for most people. Maybe it;s different if you have kids or your parents are dependent on you but if you really want to die you will not not kill yourself because some person (even your parents) There’s a lot more in the way than just that.
I know it would devastate a few people I love in my life and pass my feeling of loneliness and sorrow onto them honestly so that sums up the reason I never went through with it
This is partly true-I think some people refrain from suicide because they don’t want to hurt some people that were special to them. In my case, I knew if I was gone then one or two people I care about would suffer a lot if I wasn’t there to help them and I’m glad I stayed around for their sake.
There are other things keeping me tied here, projects I’d like to complete, places I’d like to visit, relationships I’d like to have and of course I have a love for music, books, good food, gym, and nature.
But those these things are not enough in themselves to keep me around. If my life went to crap or say I was in an accident and got paralyzed/blind or diminished in some other way, then I wouldn’t hesitate to end it.
For now my life is ‘ok’…not great but not terrible, I’m getting by. I’m hoping to improve things a lot next year and then I think I’ll be happy if my plan works out as hoped.

That definitely plays a role in my thinking, though I don’t think it would be enough to keep me here on it’s own
Funny, cute, but not even close
