I started carrying a die in my pocket

[symphony]

Partly as a joke to myself because "wanna die". Partly as a comforting reminder that someday (hopefully relatively soon), I can. Do you guys do anything similar, to make a joke or remind yourself about CTB on a daily basis?

I joke with my friend all the time about suicide. He claims he is not depressed tho or anything.

I unironically carry them to make decisions so it's random. I'm a very weird person.

Since finding SS I could never see the word "bus" the same way again.

Please non ironically do DnD rolls randomly whenever people ask for you for stuff lol.

Oh hell yeah! That would give me an excuse to get a full set of pretty dice too...

I've thought about getting a "Memento Mori" coin.

What is that?

I carry around a CBT handbook, but then I am mildly dyslexic.

I've tried to do this to beat exec dysfunction related indecision, but I feel so silly. Does it work well for you?

Brilliant.

I like the idea of that! And I suppose if you're about to ctb, you could have just one last roll of the dice to see if you'll actually go through with it. Like russian roulette but with delayed results.

I often struggle with indecision (not to a problematic degree, but enough to be annoying) and I've found dice to be invaluable in situations where the choice genuinely doesn't matter, it just needs to be made. Either I accept what they roll, or the chosen outcome being forced upon me makes me realize I actually didn't want that option.

I have a magic 8 ball that I shake each day. I ask it if today is the day. When it says, "yes," i'll die.

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

It's what I don't do that reminds me of the impending suicide.

Memento Mori means "Remember Your Death".

It's an idea rooted in Stoicism, of remembering that everyday could possibly be your last, so try not worry too much about things you can't control, and try to live according to the four virtues (wisdom, justice, strength, and temperance).
