Here are some of my thoughts on life and the framework I currently think through. I would genuinely enjoy debating and discussing these ideas with others. I should also admit that I am not very formally educated in philosophy yet, so I would appreciate the chance to learn from people who know more than I do. Ps This is not AI written. English is my third language and I used ai to format the text.
Ik I am a teenager (19 dont ban me) and statistically in the most unhappiest stage of my life, and that still doesn't really help as it is just a framework. The stuff that has happened to me doesn't make me suicidal, but the framework and perspective do. It is about being so conscious about life that makes me suicidal. Now we have all once been pretentious and asked what is the meaning of life and never really delved into it, but if you do think about it there is really no one purpose I serve or any other human being. Life ultimately has no meaning according to almost all philosophers; its only meaning is the meaning we assign it. Now that this has been set, let's move on to the main part, suicide.
I personally think of life as nothing but a room filled with misery, a room I do not like to be in, a room I never wanted to be in, and I do not see anything morally wrong in leaving it. Only 0.0037% of humanity since the 2000s have committed suicide. Eight billion people on Earth and only 0.0037% have committed suicide. That is not cowardness but bravery. The actual fact is the opposite. It is the innate human will to survive cloaked in bravery. It is cowardice to postpone death and make it seem like living is brave when death is guaranteed. Suffering without reason.
As to why I do not commit suicide, that is the most cruel part. I would argue suicide is the most blissful action you can take in your life if there was not an afterlife, and by afterlife I do not mean just hell or heaven, but let's dive into that first. The idea of heaven according to Christianity is that heaven is a place where you are overcome with love for God and you worship him daily. You forget everything. Your parents could be burning in hell and you would not remember. Your partner for life whom you loved to death could be burning in hell for all of eternity and you would just not care. Instead you would worship your creator for eternity, bowing down. I do not understand that at all. First of all that is not me. My memories and relationships are a key part of my life or any other human's life, and to worship for all eternity seems like hell to a conscious person unless I live like a puppet worshipping 24/7.
Now to hell. I do not think there is a single crime on earth that you can commit that should get you banished to hell for all eternity, and hell does not even make sense to an all knowing, all powerful God because he would have only created me to suffer in life and in the afterlife.
Now on to my belief. Existence is suffering and life is misery. I know due to something I cannot disclose that there is an afterlife or a rebirth cycle where if you commit suicide you will suffer more in the next life. It is so cruel. The very design is so cruel. I do not wish for life. Nothingness is the ultimate bliss because to be non existent is the opposite of existent, which is suffering. I have researched a lot on religions but they never say why this curse of rebirth and life started in the first place. Maybe we are already in hell, doomed to life and rebirth for all of eternity. There is nothing I can do but despair. I do not think conventional therapists will help me either, because once you start thinking about life in this manner there is no going back.
We should all let out neocortex take control over the brainstem and let it decide
