It's weird but as I get closer to the day I plan to do it, I actually feel better. Like in a better mood. It hasn't made me not want to do it, but I guess I'll see what happens when the time comes.
But I've just stopped caring about stuff that would normally be making me feel bad. I don't care about money. I'm not spending a ton of it because there's not really any point in buying stuff I can't take with me. But I've been buying whatever food I want and I subscribed to all the streaming services with shows I've wanted to see and I've just generally been living comfortably in a way I could never afford to if I planned to live.
I've stopped checking the mail or my email. I've stopped even feeling guilty about not replying to messages or comments if I don't actively feel like it. All the social capital I worked hard to build and was so anxious about maintaining ..I just don't give a shit and I've lost a ton of friends and I don't care. I'm speaking my mind and doing what I want within my power. Of course, that power is extremely limited, which factors into why I'm ready to go. But it feels nice, actually, to just not care. Not put in any effort for things that won't affect me in a short time.
I think this makes me a shitty person. I think maybe I was always a shitty person. But right now that's fine, because I'm solving the problem. No one will have to waste any more time or resources on me soon. I won't be a drain on society and my friends. Between continuing to live as a useless time suck, unable to provide for myself or others, in constant misery and pain and intractable suffering, hurting those around me by falling apart increasingly over time, or taking the easy way out...I think the moral choice is clear. For once I'll be doing something good for everyone.
