How would you feel if you were diagnosed with Inoperable cancer and what would you do?

[Yakamoz]

I hope you all get what you want, seriously.

they get so weak, lose all their hair, it's awful. most die with like 35kg body weight.

 

[HermitLonerGuy]

Idk what your definition of "edgy" is, but pointing out to people who are enthusiastic about the prospects of cancer that they are in fact very ignorant to the reality of death by cancer is not it, nor is it "trolling" to accurately observe the weapons-grade idiocy of such a take.

thanks for sharing your opinion, have a good day.

thats mostly due to the chemotherapy. It destroys you.

No it isn't. Stop talking shit about something you have literally zero understanding of.

It's hard to believe that some people are so desperate for attention that they go around bullying suicidal people. I'm sorry that your thread has been hijacked OP, your point of view is understandable and shouldn't be insulted like that. Dying from an illness is more preferable to getting brain damage from a suicide attempt. Being trapped in this world with no way out really is the worst thing so maybe people should try to understand that. One time I read this horrific story about someone failing hanging and the selfish family members kept them alive even know they had no quality of life. There are worse situations than dying from an terminal illness.

would you be sad? afraid to die? be in denial?
would you try you best to enjoy your last few months?
would it relieve some of the guilt of ctb ?
would you feel the choice to die was made for you for those who are unsure?

I think every feeling would apply here. If terminal, it may be very hard to enjoy any life, very limited time and progressing illness. I've see this happen a few times to others and it seems to go fast from functional to dead.. like days/weeks.

yeah no worries, i just ignore them and wish them a good day .
clearly not trying to understand and just bullying and enforcing their own opinion which is a breaking of rules as well as name calling. from his first reply.

SS USER #1: man I wish l had cancer, I'd be so lucky to have those pain meds, would be so convenient to simply die without SI getting in the way, anyone who thinks cancer is actually bad is either very thick or a normie who doesn't understand being suicidal, get me some of that good stage 4 shit asap

SS USER #2: this is very ignorant to the reality of cancer, which is actually one of the worst ways to die

FUNERAL CRY: one of the above is bullying and also trolling, no I'm not going to say which

You might want to check my first reply again and also maybe re-read your own posts if you're going to start rifling through a rule book

Would you rather die of cancer or live with say...Parkinson's

 

[Chinaski]

Would you rather die of cancer or live with say...Parkinson's

Would you rather die of a face-hugging extra terrestrial planting a seed inside you which grows and later burrows out of your chest light years from earth or live with an orange for a head

The second one. If my head was an orange I'd have no awareness. So no opinion on terminal cancer vs Parkinson's?

 

[GrumpyFrog]

If we simplify the choice down to terminal cancer vs Parkinson's, I'd personally probably take Parkinson's. But I can understand how others might choose otherwise, and wouldn't wish either on anyone.
If the choice was "die from cancer this very minute or live with Parkinson's for years" I would probably choose the first. But that would require magical fast-forwarding through the whole time you're sick with cancer, and that's not exactly fair. After all, Parkinson's can also eventually kill you.

 

[bigbeatmanifesto]

All you saying you'd be happy with cancer don't have a clue what you are saying . It's one of the worst ways to die

After my original post, I too now agree, I think a lot of people are romanticising what would be a torturous and interminable way to die.

Thanks for the belly laugh

 

[don't want it]

My dad and my mom died with cancer its not peaceful at all , cancer will eat your body slowly

 

[wantittoendsoon]

I have terminal cancer and I can tell you it scares the shit out of me and is why I am here. I forgive those that think it would be a good thing and just be certain death but think about it this way, it would be just as bad or worse than the worst failed/painful stories you have read here. yYoy would still want a painless end..Believe Me.

'Some users' on the forum follow you everywhere like a buzzing mosquito you're not allowed to swat. 'Some users' on the forum think we're their parents 'you just don't UNDERSTAND!' 'Some users' have zero life experience and no respect for those that do.'Some users' have zero originality, talent, creativity or charisma. 'Some users' have no morals or integrity. 'Some users' are very gullible. 'Some users' can't think critically. 'Some users' are not smart and resent those who are…

How long have you got?

 

[Disappointered]

I would definitely feel a sense of relief and consider it good fortune. If I had to go through with ctb at some point due to diminishing effectiveness of pain killers I think it would be easier knowing I had a terminal illness and was in soon-to-be unmanageable pain.

I do have terminal cancer and that is how I feel

Just keep them gems comin

 

[theboy]

Oh, i would feeling good!

My mom went through that with lung cancer. I can promise you all, there is no way in hell I would go for chemo. No Sir, not this boy, uh-huh not a chance! Chemo makes you sick as hell on top of the cancer, hair falls out.....no thank you!

And What happend if you dont take the treatment?

 

[Chinaski]

Tbh i would like it. SI has no chance, and in the last weeks i would go in a hospice with morphine and fentanyl patches. Also people like nurses and docs take care of you, you're not dying totally alone.

Hope you get your wish.

 

[DeepDespair101]

would you try you best to enjoy your last few months?

It would relieve probably all of my guilt and would honestly make me happy/at peace.

Would decline all treatment to extend my life and just enjoy the last few weeks/months higher than hell on the best pain killers they'd give me.

 

[SectOfValtiel]

ive thought about it a lot actually these past few years... and i truly dont know
guilt or the fear of hurting someone by doing so isnt the reason i dont CTB, its the fear of pain and what (potentially) could come after
not that i really believe in an afterlife per say, but its something entirely unknown to me and that means even my worst fears are a possibility

its not like ive really had much of a life as is... i dont have a reason to live as is
maybe a diagnosis like that would make the people in my life actually pretend like they give a shit for once haha, but somehow i doubt that
on one hand, its a means to an end and thats something i truly desire
on the other, it doesnt exactly sound like a peaceful way out... it sounds like a painful, awful way to go

maybe being in more pain is what id need to finally push me over the edge and start taking CTB seriously
or maybe it would somehow be a silver lining that pushes me the other way, forces me to start appreciating what the life ive already had was worth
somehow i doubt that, too, but thats also something completely unknown to me
i couldnt tell you how id react when ive barely even been in a hospital, never broken a bone or any surgery
at least not as an adult

i dont think ill ever know the answer and i really hope i never do

 

[HermitLonerGuy]

Hope you get your wish.

coming back to the thread i made a few months later i can say you were right, i wasnt thinking straight and indeed a terminal illness is a horrible way to go. I was just wishing for death but didnt consider the logistics and suffering.

 

[rationaltake]

I wonder how people who have been diagnosed with terminal cancer feel when reading some of the posts on here? People who didn't want to end their lives? Do they feel "lucky" to be facing unwanted suffering and untimely death?

Do these people and their loved ones not deserve consideration and respect? It's not an academic question to them. It's grim reality.

There is actually nothing wrong with this thread and there's nothing disrespectful about it, it's people's feelings and they are entitled to have them and wishing to die from terminal cancer is perfectly valid and understandable. Having the knowledge that all this will soon be coming to an end is a beautiful thing, even if some kind of suffering is involved in the dying process, those people will soon be free. It's not just about people with cancer, so many on this forum are suffering and struggle to find a way to leave themselves. Their views towards this should be respected.
