If you could press a magic button and instantly die, as well as wipe memories of you from all your loved ones would you do it?

[sserafim]

Same

It's so annoying that even death is painful and takes effort in this cruel, evil world. I wish I could die in my sleep or something…

 

[ctbcat]

scary rare response oouuouououou

no because i'm selfish and want to be remembered to my own detriment. feels like a. what's the word. contradiction, but i wouldn't say so

i want to die but i want to leave a stain when i go. i want to linger. i think i'm just selfish :p

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I want to be remembered as well (for being a bad person) so I'd probably vote no on this. My death needs to make people happy that I'm gone.

 

[kilowatt]

What kind of question is this for a forum orientated on CTB? I think a vast majority would say yes. That's one's dream.

 

[itsover404]

No. I would like for people to remember what I was like. Before I began developing serious mental illnesss I was full of life and love and had so many people who cared for me like I them. I don't regret the majority of my life and the relationships I made and the people I affected. I would like them to remember me for who I was, not as I am now; ie a shell of who I was. This isn't me and I'd love for them to just remember me how I was. Although if it were just a button to erase myself without pain I'd sit on it, get my affairs in order, then promptly exit the building.

 

[broth0100]

Not right this second, ive some stuff i wanna try first

 

[grahf]

Definitely, my existence just hurting other people idk how to socialize with other people so people always assume I'm weird and annoying
I just don't want to exist

 

[lostmind38]

Definitely, I've hurt too many people just by existing!

 

[evenlesshope]

Yes, yes, yes!! It would be my dream because they wouldn't suffer…

 

[Deadfrogwalking]

Definitely, would just be afraid the freaking button was broken or mislabeled, making it all worse by forcing me to live even longer or feel more acutely.
Magic buttons are a sketchy proposition.
Lead to the head on the other hand is a less fallible option.

 

[Kurai]

Absolutely would press that button

 

[Suicidebydeath]

Pressy press the button, goodbye everyone.

 

[Candleburn]

Yes

 

[FitsTime]

Without esitation

 

[untothedepths]

I would. I hate that the people who spend enough time to care about me will feel bad about it. It's not their fault, I don't know if it's anyones. I don't want them to be sad about not having to care about Cujo, you know?

 

[luneylonegirl]

Lol, why the heck no? I really want this to happen.

 

[uniqueusername18]

100% yes.

 

[soulkitty]

Yes I would so much. There wouldn't even be a second of hesitation

 

[LadyApple]

Not yet. I'm going to try a little longer for my friend. She would want me to live and try. I hope I can fulfil the dream life both of us wanted for us both.

 

[Groot]

I think the two most common reasons most suicidal people have not CTB is fear of failing their methods/fear of the pain, and also not wanting to cause loved ones, families and friends to be sad.

IF there was a magic button you can press, which erases memories of you from all your loved ones like family and friends, so they never knew you existed, and you just disappear peacefully with no pain, would you press it?

I would slam the button so hard one thousand times

A MILLION TIMES YES

 

[Malaria]

Yes, I think about this a lot.

 

[Nx7]

If only such a failproof device existed! I would press the button without a worry

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Hell yes. In my case, I don't even care about the loved one aspect of it. I'd just press the button because it's a peaceful, immediate, guaranteed, easy way to die and that's exactly what I need in my life

 

[Tobacco]

It would be awesome. I wouldn't press it inmediately because I still want to do some stuff. Is saving it for later allowed in your thought experiment?

The most important aspect of this experiment is that I don't want anyone else to suffer. That's the main thing keeping me here and also lack of a painless method.

 

[Nikitatos]

I have no loved one. No friends. No family. Every time I get my life going, the deep state beats me back down. I've had multiple failed attempts. I used to dream about such a magic button.

 

[LifeIsCrazyNemb]

SLAMMING THE BUTTON TEN BILLION TIMES

Too much
I think slamming 1 bilion time is more than enough

Yes

 

[offtoseethewizard]

Probably

 

[anonymousbookreader]

Of course. I feel like nothing but a mistake or glitch. I don't think I was supposed to be here to begin with. I think pressing that button is the right thing for me to do.

 

[thelazyegg]

I would immediately press it! You know, I used to tell my therapist about how in this one Doctor Who episode, there's this crack that if you touch it, it erases you from existence and all that knew you cease to remember you existed at all. Everyone was so horrified by that. For me, it sounded like a dream come true! Just like that crack in the wall, I would touch that button as soon as it was in my eyesight.
