Venting I see nothing tragic about suicide

[FuneralCry]

In fact I see suicide as the best way to cease existing as it's on our own terms, to me suicide is self care as it solves all the problems existence causes and is the way to permanently find peace from having the ability to suffer.
Those who no longer exist are to be envied as there are no disadvantages to not existing, the non-existent have no need for anything and are incapable of suffering, there is no sadness in an eternal dreamless sleep. In fact the peace of eternal nothingness is all that's desirable, no matter what existence will always be the true problem, the tragedy lies in how life even exists at all with humans so tragically continuing to impose it, just creating unnecessary harm and suffering as a result.

I see ceasing to exist as something positive and suicide is just the way to take control over the inevitable, I see nothing tragic about preventing suffering in an existence where we are just slowly dying anyway destined for nothing but to decay and deteriorate. In fact I see so much beauty in death and I see those who no longer exist as being very fortunate as they are free from this cruel and burdensome existence.

I despise how suicide isn't accepted as a valid and logical choice to permanently escape from an existence we never even consented to being in. It'd be compassionate to allow people the option of just falling into an dreamless sleep where all is forgotten about, no matter what I'd see it as better to cease existing but of course only never existing is true perfection.

I agree. I'd much rather die at this moment. I've done enough, accomplished enough and seen enough for 10 lifetimes. Now I'm getting older. I'm tired all the time, my friends and family have either all moved on or passed away. I have nothing ahead of me but empty years, memories of good times I'll never be able to revisit, depression from trauma I've endured over the past 50 years, medications, hospital and doctors office visits as I grow old and fragile. Nothing from here on out is worth living for. Literally, nothing.

Suicide is the best option.

I had a friend who once wrote about what he'd ask a genie who offered him three wishes. He said:

1) Everyone else is a philosophical zombie and this is all a solipsistic dream (suffering isn't real).

2) All matter & energy contained within spacetime is an illusion/simulation.

3) And lastly, my consciousness seamlessly/instantaneously dissolve into nothingness.

It's amazing that he thought of others before himself, it makes me glad to have known him. He died years ago after taking his N in the middle of nowhere, but I got to chat with him until his last few minutes.

If we don't get autonomy in the choice of being alive, they owe us autonomy in the choice of undoing that shit fr I wish more people were able to sucessfully sue for damages in that regard; I'm sure that would make people think a little harder about contraception and abortion. Drive demand, strengthen the case for legal and safe access 'n whatnot, maybe popularize the idea of vasectomies a bit more, etc.etc. Maybe GIVE US SOME N GDI,

Thank you for this, I've been feeling guilty lately for feeling so relieved and comforted that'll it be over soon. I wish most people in my life felt the same.
