Is suicide something we might regret?

[Steamm]

Even if our life is not going well, do you believe there's a chance of regret?

 

[ecmnesia]

no, because you will be dead. there won't be a 'you' no more.

 

[Midnight-rain]

If we survive and end up severely hurt or hospitalized then probably.

 

[mahakaliSS_MahaDurga]

What a question, lol. No life = no regrets.

 

[GoneGoneGone]

No person no problem lol

 

[Mr2005]

For the time it takes probably but then regrets what I'm doing it for in the first place. Better if it was just over with instantly

 

[Dizzy_Dreams]

no, because you will be dead. there won't be a 'you' no more.

I really hope this is the truth!

 

[SmellyRat]

You can't regret anything if you don't exist

 

[WornOutLife]

no, because you will be dead. there won't be a 'you' no more.

And even if there's any good or bad "afterlife" I won't regret having CTB because "this lifetime" sucks and will suck forever for me.

 

[dropdeadfred]

You must mean in the moments before passing...? Absolutely, there may be.

 

[Steamm]

So there's no catholic around here I see.

 

[StringPuppet]

I'll eventually regret it more if I don't

 

[mahakaliSS_MahaDurga]

I'll eventually regret it more if I don't

I am already regretting that I haven't done it.

 

[Meditation guide]

If I keep getting worse and worse as I have been the longer I wait the more I'm going to regret NOT doing it.

 

[ecmnesia]

not exactly what was asked, but i wanted to say;

the only think that gives me comfort is knowing that i wont be able to regret or feel the despair of those i left behind.

 

[Gromit-CTB]

Only if you survive, if you get on the bus no

 

[hoping to lose hope]

Assuming consciousness is destroyed you wont although if you were to watch your life playout had you not ctb it may be regretted or conversely be something you are grateful for.

This is my problem too i thought it would be a good idea to live for others despite being in chronic pain.

I'm at the point now where i should just do whats best for me nobody is living this shitty life, but me.

 

[ecmnesia]

i should just do whats best for me

couldn't agree more. that's why i settled for cbt. i can only hope we will find our way soon.

 

[Superdeterminist]

No because the dead don't regret. But even if they could, I'm quite confident that I wouldn't regret it.

 

[Toptock]

Regardless of the outcome, afterlife or not. It won't matter. We'll have made the decision ourselves and have followed through, We'll be strong enough for anything after (if there is an after)

I think this is hardwired in to us to stay alive. I'm not just talking about SI, but the massive sense of unknown that is being dead and this is for some people I guess keeps them from CTB.
My belief is that being dead is like when you sleep without dreams, forever, so there is no consciousness and no regret is possible, but that's just my 2c.
I don't want to suggest anything uncomfortable for anyone but if the concept of regret is on the radar then maybe some more thinking might help.

Fuck no. I regret being born and I didn't even choose that.

You're comments are always so intuitive.

Got to learn to think of it as exciting because it's an adventure into the unknown.

Sure thing brother, I'll keep an open mind, but excitement isn't really something I'm able to feel (yeah boo hoo right), for me the blink of an eye that turns in to forever is my hope.

Regrets are for the living.

 

[Nyxtus]

The scary and also great thing about being dead is there is no regret. There's nothing. And that can be a scary thing to think about but I like to think that absolutely nothing is much preferred to struggling and suffering every day. Do you regret the time before you were born? Of course not, because it was the same then. A ton of "nothing".

Nothing sounds better than this piece of crap experience I've had.

 

[Aurora]

My only regret is not doing it years earlier. Life gets worse, not better. I wish I had the guts when I was a kid.

You can't feel regret once you're gone.. You can't feel anything.. But, perhaps you can feel those regrets now... Even before you've done anything you feel regret about leaving your dead body that will become someone elses problem. You might feel regret about not trying hard enough to help yourself.. Maybe you have kids (hopefully not because for you to ctb and leaving your angels behind to face this cruel world without you would be seriously f*cked up.. unleass they're grown in which case, f*uckit!) and even the thought of leaving your nieces and nephews who idolize you, could have you feeling future regret. I am sounding kinda judgemental here even tho I am planning to ctb soon but yeh this is just opinion on the matter.
