Venting I can't comprehend how somebody feels alive enough to die

[Mio_Kamimachi]

I don't mean any of the following with disrespect in mind. I simply can't grasp and follow many posts on this forum and this is an actual question. Please don't insult me, the 1k already told me all i need to know.

I don't understand where you even get the energy from to bother with dying. How can you just put all that willpower and thought into killing yourself?

It is beyond me how. It is too annoying and useless to waste all that energy on it. I can't comprehend how somebody feels alive enough to die. What is the point of making it official? I feel like you can just cease to be exist without having to kill yourself. That just a me thing or something?

I want to understand how and why I should invest all that energy to make it official. I would just bother people with moving away the corpse anyway. I admire and envy people that figured this out while I can't even grasp the concept of it. Anybody willing to teach me?

waking up, going to work, buying food, cooking/eating, showering, going to sleep.. i think this is the bare minimum of most people's daily life, endless effort. unless you live with your parents and have everything taken care of, i dont see how you could "cease to exist" and not end up completely homeless or in a ward from being found immobile and catatonic. its not much effort to get a rope, watch a 2 minute video to tie a knot, and think of a place youd like to do it. you put in more energy in just one day of keeping yourself alive. even compared to learning how to construct an exit bag or finding DSL...

somehow i never looked at suicide through your lens. All it takes are 2 minutes, a quiet place and darkness. I need to direct a small part of my energy towards this goal. i can do this

While it may sound easy to do and happen fast, you still have to over come the survival instinct that happens.
It is not simple to over come that for most people and I find people here are more rational about suicide then just doing it impulsively.
Along with that is coming to terms of how your family will react to your death if family means a lot to you as well.
