Discussion How much is loneliness a factor in your suicide?

[Circles]

I'm sorry for making 2 threads today I'm very bored and of course I am very lonely so yep. Welp anyway, for me it's one of my top reasons and I can't fathom living like this for another however many more years. I can't imagine another decade let alone an entire lifetime of being alone or feeling lonely. Hell I can't even imagine one fucking year being like this despite already living 10 or so years of experience it. I just know after reading and learning of other peoples lives some people are especially fucked when it comes to human relationships. I admit a lot of it is my fault for because of my social anxiety, lack of communication skills, etc, but it also not easy keeping or making friends and/or relationships regardless.

How about you?

Not at all but I know it's a big problem for a lot of people

It's cool, I suppose of course everyone deals with different levels of loneliness.

For many people, loneliness can be very painful, but for me personally I would rather be alone than be around people. Overall, I cannot stand people. My reason for wanting ctb is that I cannot cope with life and I simply hate existing. I do not want to be part of a world where so much suffering exists.

I wish I could be like that where I'd rather be alone than feel bad about feeling lonely every time. I understand though, Internet hugs to you.

You can't stand people or yourself? I would rather be alone too but it's not because of them (except the ones I don't like)

Loneliness is a state beyond physical aloneness. It is a disconnection from within self and the outside world. It is a cessation of the flow of life that we need To feel alive. Closest thing to a walking dead

I cannot stand people, to me they are the problem rather than myself. However I hate being myself but I have no choice to put up with this life because it is difficult to ctb and I never asked to exist in the first place.

It can be a room full of people all talking about themselves. I could have left yesterday when I realised nothing I said made any difference

Loneliness is only mitigated by being around/connecting to somebody who show true care and affection not just by muttering some loving words but by actually behaving in that way. Words are just words. Actions show sincerity beyond doubt. Even small nuances and subtle gestures make the world of difference to restore the flow of life and reduce feelings of disconnect and lonliness

I am a loner so loneliness is not on my top 5 reasons to ctb. However, feeling like I don't belong in life, life is not meant for me, I have no where to go, I should not have been born ...etc is one of main reasons to ctb. Does that count?

 

[Gloom]

Loneliness is a massive factor for me, that's why I'm going to ctb soon and it'll be easy to do knowing that most people will forget about me easily and won't get hurt. My friends were spoon-fed to me so I never learned how to actually socialise; I grew out of them 3 years ago and I haven't made a new relationship since and felt absolutely numb. Every day is the same. the solution is to simply go outside and learn how to talk to people despite it being hard but I don't think I'm made to handle that. I really can't be bothered by these social rules and the pressure to climb the social ladder anyway.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I'd say maybe 80% of my suicidality is due to loneliness but the other 20% is out of pure hatred towards myself for being the main cause of my own loneliness in the first place.

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

100% of the surface-level (emotional pain, genetic drive, etc); 0% of the deeper reasons (no purpose, negative utilitarianism, preventative, etc).

 

[Foresight]

It's only about 40%. If my partner died or left me it would go up. I have my romantic partner but I deeply miss platonic friendships. I haven't had a friend in 10 years. Sometimes my partner is doing his own thing and I'll go days or weeks with barely any human interaction.

i have a personality disorder which makes me push everyone away but at the same time yearn for closeness . i've ruined almost every relationship of any kind i have ever had. it's literal hell. loneliness is definietly a big factor.
