Anyone else feeling extreme guilt towards their significant other for wanting to die?

Any tips ? Anything I can do?
Anything I can do to help him after I passed?

I don't have an SO, but I do feel guilt towards my family, even though logically I shouldn't because of the way they treat me. I still do though.

I would just make sure to leave a note, and explain that they should not feel any guilt or sense of responsibility for what happened, that it was your choice, etc. Pain will be unavoidable, but I think it may hurt less to have some sort of explanation. I'm also not sure what your situation is like, but I would also be sure to have your affairs in order so as to put as little work onto them as possible afterwards. If that's the route you end up wanting to go

I don't have an SO but I have a very close friend I consider to be a soulmate that I'm so guilty of leaving, for me, I'm just enjoying the time I have left with her. Leave a love letter, a detailed note that you pour your heart into and emphasize how they shouldn't feel guilty, that they couldn't do anything to change this, that it's not their fault, and that you love them. Just love them as much as you can and don't end with some semblance on content with how your relationship will end.

I don't have one and I don't feel anything about how it will affect others. I'm not even trying to get things in order before I go. Maybe only people who are leaving a partner behind would do that but if not then I don't know why I just don't feel anything about anything or anyone. Even that bothers me, why don't I care about what my friends are going to feel and do?

But I suppose if you do just get as many things sorted as you can, leave a nice note.

I have the same with my parents. If I leave a note I would tell them they don't have any involvement in it. But they actually do .. a lot.

I just don't want them to feel guilty.. even though they deserve to feel guilty
