Sabotaged my career as well. And totally overdid sports as well so now I'm just sitting inside the house all the time having no motivation left to do anything physical. So I get you. I hope you get your N.

Land of broken dreams <3 that's it. Don't know if I have the strength to reinvent myself. To live off of the crumbs of what life used to be. Become a mindfulness guru or something, pretending that the muddy water tastes like wine 😅😅😅

I use to play tennis for 5 sets everyday.. I ran marathons and cycled like an animal.. i got titanium in my head.. my feet.. I'm just jaded!!

Ok for me I try and try to build things in my life but always end up left with nothing. So the way I look at it giving a choice right now, there's nothing I want to carry for eternity. Only the memory of me, so oblivion is a peaceful freedom.

Personally, part of the process to accept nothingness is the grieving of oneself. The grief of your own consciousness & all the experiences accumulated (which include both positives & negatives), the self which you've known / developed over all these years. The process can be both peaceful & horrific simultaneously.

If external factors allowed then take your time in this process, regardless of your final decision. Wish you well, @Journeytoletgo .

how can it be horrible? Whenever you feel fear just remember the "horrible" exist because there is a conscious agent to perceive it in such a way, but without the agent, the "horrible" cannot possibly exist.

Nothingness sounds boring, but i'm not exactly fearful of it. I won't feel it so it doesnt matter, tbh it's most about SI. Guess you got to put in balance life - pain and pleasure and on the other side nothingness.

Eternal nothingness for each of us will come automatically upon death. Our emotional pain will immediately end, and we'll return to the same state we were in forever before we were born. I have as much belief in an afterlife as I do in a Mars populated by little green aliens. I don't fear the inevitability of death and eternal nothingness, but I am afraid of the pain of dying. As unhappy and hopeless as I am these days, I'm still human; my instinctive desire to avoid dying is, for now, stronger than my willingness to take action. If I'm diagnosed with a serious illness, or when I reach the point where I'm no longer independent and need a caregiver, that's when I'll exit. I refuse to be a lonely old man in a nursing home.

I just think it'll be pretty much the same as when I passed out (I've passed out/had a syncope about 10 times in my life because of my eating disorder) and that actually relieves me, because the nothingness was… nothing. Not bad or good, just nothing. Like, you don't have to "digest it" because you will never know how it feels like.

I think it will be no different from being in a deep and dreamless sleep... or under anesthesia. No memory, no awareness, no consciousness of the passing of time or of anything else for that matter.

As others have said, I fear the pain or experience of dying far more than what comes after it. That is why when my time comes to exit, I hope I am unconscious and not feeling anything.

Preferably I want the oblivion non-existence that was before I was conceived and brought into this life. Just think before your parents made you, you simply did not exist. You didn't get hungry or cold, or angry, or sad you felt nothing because you did not exist. And I genuinely hope that's what happens when you die, you got back to the non existence that you originated from.

I wonder sometimes how conscious we really are in the first place? Philosophers like Daniel Dennett believe that it's just an illusion like the image you see on your screen, and when we die that is the equivalent of hitting the "off" switch.

He's a pragmatist, nice. I don't know about separation of body and soul, in case it is what you're referring to. It would take a very developed mind to take place in, for most our conscience is separable from everything physical in the world.

I had never heard of him before. What are his arguments for his beliefs?

The belief that consciousness is somehow separate from the body, and the rest of physical existence, doesn't make sense from a scientific perspective. Everything we have learned about the universe and reality seems to indicate that the nature of existence is material, and that everything depends on physical forces or processes. There has never been any evidence that anything immaterial, or non-physical exists, so that pretty much rules out the possibility that a heaven exists or that consciousness survives without a brain.

Here is a Ted Talk with Dennett talking about consciousness.


Here's a link to the wiki page for Metaphysical Naturalism, which is the kind of philosophy he espouses. It's basically the idea that nothing exists apart from nature, and the natural world.

i look at old film.footage of mainly London and Paris sometimes on YouTube, some films.go back 100 + Years. All of those people are gone, even the children have gone to wherever.
I also do that. I look at old videos from Brazil's streets and trip in how everything was so very diferent and all of those people walking around are now under the ground. It's so strange.
One thing we need to all remember - something I regularly forget when I'm down a CTB rabbit hole, and have to remind myself - is that we are all going to die anyway! Whether it's through CTB, or suddenly in a car crash, or in a care home at 78 of a heart attack or cancer - all humans die! What we're trying to achieve here is nothing unusual or out of the ordinary - it's just at a younger age than you probably thought it would be, but likely no more horrific than the way God had planned for you, and quite possibly less horrific, depending on the method you choose. 100 billion humans have died in the last 200,000 years, and a majority of them were children. The infinite nothingness we may be afraid of, we were all destined to enter anyway, whether it's at 25, 45, or 95, it's the same either way, and the same infinite nothingness that those 100 billion people that came before us have already entered. In the grand scheme of things, what we're planning isn't that big a deal, and is actually the thing that all humans have the most in common with each other. We're all in this together, and nobody gets out alive!
That's certanly a good way to look at it, and it's amazing how often we forget it. It seens our brain is meant to think we are immortals. If you think about it, say you do it by N, you are getting the best possible death there is, probably much better then if you let fate seal the deal.

carbon, nitrogen and all the other materials that compose my body will stay here, as Earth is a closed echo-system, at least while it's not destroyed by some star explosion, black hole or other event.

however, the important part for me is that I really want myself to never be conscious again. being sentient is a torment.

I wanna be inorganic eternally, like the seasons, the wind, the sun or the rain. we can be like they are.



alternatively, I want it to take an enormous amount of time (aeons) for me to be conscious again.

the harsh nature of life is bad, but between all problems, perhaps humanity is one of the biggest of them all, as we are the plague of the Earth, a suffering-spreader virus who lives unnaturally and causes chaos on the whole echo-system.

Eternal nothingness is the best thing imaginable to me , no suffering ever , no extreme pain ever, no torture ever , no problems forever.... Etc none of the other hells like stroke , homelessness , cancer , dementia , old age, lies, scams, injustice, 5000 other things I hate about life and this world. That's what I believe will happen to me after death eternal nothingness, non-existence.

I can't wait. I wish I were never born
Our lives are just a tiny blip in a sea of nothingness, like a drop in the ocean or a single second in an entire day. When you think about it this way it starts to feel like that nothingness is everywhere and bleeds into existence. People are born and people die every second of every day, we are so small, our lives are meaningless. So to me death isn't really much more scary than the inherent nature of life

these three posts quoted above were some of the best I ever read on this website! thank you, people

And I genuinely hope that's what happens when you die, you got back to the non existence that you originated from.
non-existence is probably the natural state, whie life is just a temporary excemption. I hope that too. nevertheless, we don't have control about any of these stuff, we're going to die one day, one way or the other. we have zero control over that. the outcome of all our decisions will always be the same.

I wouldn't worry or take anything too serious, being too serious is like being sick unnecessarily.
like is just a joke, although it's a bad one.

I've worked with Alzheimer's patients and watched them die.. doesn't seem like a good blip.
it's horrible. it's ineffable, actually. cognitive decline, dementia and Alzheimer's are horrible, although they're also a small list of diseases and circunstances that can cause a human-being to have a torturous time in life.

life can be pain. death cannot. if I can't have dignity in the former, I'll choose to have dignity in the latter.
