For me it has to be the "what about your family/suicide is selfish" thing. Okay? So instead of helping me with my problems you're gonna guilt trip me into staying around? I don't know what the thought process behind that argument is. Same thing for the temporary problem thing, not all problems are temporary. I have anxiety. That isn't temporary.

Yea, I also don't get the selfish thing. Aren't they the ones being selfish for not wanting to suffer? For taking away my right to make my own decisions? To keep me here despite seeing me struggle and not able to help? Ffs
My "favourite reason to live":
I have one that I picked up on this forum. it's not a classic, but I really like it:
"A cope a day keeps the rope away"
For me that's what it comes down to currently. Trying to have at least one treat a day that stops me from thinking about my fears and numbs the pain.Last edited:

The worst? When someone says: "No pain, no gain".
No wonder this life is hell.

Yeah, my parents spill it all out. They said before we had children, life was boring, they brought us to life for their entertainment, and my mom still blames me when my dad gets depressed; she expects me to entertain him. But when I started to create my own controversial point of view about the world, they called me sick and uneducated. In fact, I have more education than them. But I think they still love me conditionally, they never oppressed me or anything, but they have the wrong perspective about life, which obliges me to get along with them, therefore society.
I think the only reason to live for me is love. I love people who reflect me, who have the same idea as me, they are special to me, and I enjoy the feeling of caring for them.Last edited:

I live because I don't want to break my mom's heart by committing suicide. It's a possibility that I'll commit suicide after my mom dies, but I think I'm slowly changing my mind and getting better.
When I was locked up in the psychiatry after my attempt I made a list with 100 arbitrary reasons to get out faster because no one believed me when I told them I was afraid of being locked in. None of the reasons were actually important to me. I just wrote things they might want to read or things that could convince them. Surprising it worked. Not very well but at least I didn't have to stay another week.

I was as honest as I could be when I wrote down all the reasons to keep living (none) that I could come up with, and all the reasons to kms (at least 15). I don't have any burritos. Even if I did, it wouldn't change anything. It would just be a complication I'd have to deal with before I go.Similar threads
