If life is hard and I’m going to struggle my entire life, why should I be here?

[violetdevil]

Why not die sooner than expected? I have to die one day anyways. That's life, right?

Why do people insist on me staying alive when I'm overwhelmed and not happy

 

[SmollMushroom]

I feel the same. Best days of my life are behind me anyways.

But some others don't, they like to do stuff.
They want to be remembered.
Or they enjoy the challenge, idk.

 

[WAITING TO DIE]

Same here.
A lifetime of mental illness, nobody cares, living in poverty, no friends or support system.
There is no point to it all, its all just endless suffering.

I find the view so repulsive that is held by pro-lifers that suffering must be prolonged no matter what. I hate how there isn't acceptance towards the fact that suicide is a valid option, as existing isn't for everyone and not everyone wants to exist. I could never see a point to the futile and torturous process of decaying from age, it's just undesirable, meaningless suffering.

 

[hardtruth]

I've come to accept my time is up. I feel you.

Most people, even I, would tell you "because you might experience good moments for which the suffering would be worth it, because you can be dead for an eternity but live only once so might as well do everything you can" etc You've probably heard stuff like that a million times. And you know, I stand by it when a person can turn their life around for the better but that's not always the case and you shouldn't have to continue living if you don't want to and if you don't care about getting like one good moment amongst months of suffering. Also I think that people should live or die for their own sake, other people wanting you to stay (which sounds like to be the case) shouldn't be the deciding factor because they don't experience the things you do.

I hope what I said makes sense, I know you're probably mostly asking those questions as vent.
