Goodbye

[LetzteAusfahrt]

I'm sorry for you that you had to read inappropriate posts in your goodbye thread.

Hopefully they didn't bother you too much in your last hours.
You know that we are all there for you and support you, no matter how you decide.

I'm really sorry you feel that way and feel this is the only way. If you decide this is what you're going to do I wish you a peaceful journey, and while I am not religious at all I will say a little prayer for you, just in case.

Isn't this true of anyone on this forum who is here due to depression or mental health issues, rather than something with a definitive life sentence like a health issue with no cure? Anyone under 30 has the potential to make a positive change in their life like getting a qualification. I'm sure there are tonnes of people like that on this forum. And I'm sure just like OP they aren't taking this lightly, and can make their own decision as to what their prospects are.

just to play devil's advocate, I think that many people probably don't have mental issues but are stuck in extenuating circumstances that make it difficult to see a way out. I think that watermelon dude's def taking an uncommon approach on this forum, but for this dude, I think it actually could work. What's stopping him is mostly situation, and stuff that could be helped in a way that is much easier compared to some things. So maybe in this case he could just try? For alot of others I don't think the same way, though.

How can you know all this based on a couple of posts? Not just the applicability of external resources, but the availability of them, as well as the OP's internal and financial resources to pursue them. What if he for some reason can't try or doesn't want to?

This isn't necessarily the OP's stance, but something you'll find on this site is that some people simply don't want to be saved and don't want to make any effort or get any resources to do so.

I'm sorry everything has led to this. I hope you find peace. I also noticed your username is a Nirvana reference. You like grunge?

Hi, I hope it goes well with you whatever you decide to do. I'm sorry this life was so bad for you.
Please keep us informed if you want to. I'm going to be thinking about you and wondering how it went for you. I care about you.

Age has nothing to do with how poorly life is treated person . Not everyone has opportunities or possibilities, and not everyone has the emotional or physical fortitude to follow through on large plans. Even children will commit suicide because this life can be such crap. Age does not mean you have a bright horizon ahead of you, and it's entirely unsupportive and unkind to bombard somebody with such narrowmindedness.

while I also find it sad for such a young one to pass, it is indeed not right to invalidate their suffering

I think 'waterbottleman' means it in a good way, that OP is possible of maybe steering life in a the right direction.

That OP hasn't pursuing all options, i.e. getting a high school diploma, to come to the conclusion CTB is the best decision to make.

I think 'waterbottleman' sincerely wants OP to be happy and not to compromise his CTB plan.

But a lot of 'older' members, including myself, know life is complete and utter shit and we have tried, to no avail, to make it better and it didn't work out. If I could go back to my past 18 year old version, I would tell him: "your CTB ideation is just! Life will be even more shittier in the future! The people who say 'it will get better' were bullshitting!"

'EndlessNameless', life could be better, but can also be a lot worse and if you think life will only prolong and increase suffering, and therefore want to CTB, I wish you a peaceful transition.

I hope to join you soon

Wishing you peace and a safe journey for whenever you decide to go. I'm sorry that your goodbye thread devolved into this. It is your choice what you decide to do and I'm here to support your decision. Sending virtual hugs to you

waterbottleman is right- killing yourself at any age is drastic, but at 21 it is pretty horrifying. Life can change many things can happen. Even at nearly 50 i hestitate on the cusp of suicide because part of me holds some hope. As for accusing waterb of agression, this is what happens when political correctness trumps common sense.

You are, whether you mean to or not, being incredibly invalidating to OP's experience here. What you're asking for is for him to start on a large self-improvement task that would take a lot of effort and span a long period of time. If he is depressed he may have a very hard time doing such a thing. I would love to see him do what you're suggesting, but telling him that he is wasting himself by dying and that it's the wrong choice is ignoring a lot of the core problems he may be struggling with. He may not be able or willing to push himself in this way.

I can relate to parts of this situation myself. I am 18 and struggling with my education now. People could easily tell me to stop thinking about suicide and go improve my life, but that is more of a struggle than I am willing to go through personally.

Thank you for this wonderful response.

at 21 it is pretty horrifying.

I wish I had done it then.

Its obvious on here opinions are very tightly patrolled so sorry if i have' invalidated someones experience'. ( love the psychobabble) but why come on here and describe your experience and be annoyed when someone responds? If thats the case dont come on here, just do whatever you want with your life at whatever age you like .
Ive noticed most poeple on here seem to be millenials and younger who spout psychobabble and have grown up in an entitlement culture where everything is about rights and no responsibilities. Many of us compare ourselves with others and feel bad. Thats part of life, the world doesnt owe you anything. If your struggling with education, drop your education and so something else.

I hope you have a peaceful transition
