Dying:
– I won’t be cognizant of anyone perceiving me

– never have to interact with my parents again
– not stuck in this fucking body anymore

– no more sensory overloads or meltdowns

all of my “living” ones feel so stupid and childish :/
That’s pretty much the case with all our lists. Or to summarize, reasons for living = meaningless pleasure, obligation or fear.
Reasons for dying = escape.
we’re all as childish as we are human, but the things you listed aren’t even close to stupid. those are things that you enjoy. don’t let people take that from you. don’t let your mind take that from you. thrive in it.
Nonsense- they’re all reasonable. Especially fanfiction.
