Discussion It never fails to amaze me how being dead would solve every single one of my problems. Every SINGLE one.

[ChildrensITV]

There is an all-healing deed. It would solve my:

- depression
- anxiety
- advanced ageing
- ugly looks
- poverty
- anguish over the happy childhood I had that was cut short
- living conditions
- low-IQ
- regrets and past cringe
- dismay with the political climate
- inability to get a girlfriend
- joblessness and underachievement
- weakmindedness and social anxiety
- poor gym-gains

Bla bla. There is not ONE problem it wouldn't solve. It might bring some new problems for others, but for me, and for many others, it would be a net-positive. It stuns me that there is a solution out there that will tie off everything that was wrong like the end of a sausage. I was never meant to live this long.

I know what you mean- it's like that phrase that labels death as the permanent solution. Like- yeah- that's why we want it!

How many problems in life were actually temporary anyway? How long do they think a 'temporary' problem should go on for? Plus, what was the last time you solved a problem and no new ones came along? Life is full of problems! At best, most of us seem to have to just try and settle for the lesser of the evils the whole time.

I mean- yeah- sure- some problems can be solved with a shit load of effort stretching over however long. What if the person can't be arsed though? Or- they get to the end of their own personal marathon and think- what an anticlimax! I'm not putting myself through that again- it wasn't worth it! In my case- the last circumstances- the 'reward' not being worth the effort is why I'm unlikely to really try that hard at life now. I'm just going to try and be as content as I can be until I bring things to a close (hopefully.)

Yup... Non-existence is the best "thing" that could have "happened to me". If I wasn't born in the first place, I would never suffer, get sick or old... and I would never have to deal with the suffering of dying...

Too bad that my parents didn't really care about any of these serious consequences when they decided to bring me here.

Dying is a most bitter remedy to swallow... but it really is the only actual panacea to all of life's harms.

The fact that ceasing to exist solves everything is exactly why I'm comforted by the thought of it, I envy those who no longer exist as they cannot suffer, have no more problems or concerns, they are the true fortunate ones to me. There really is far too much unnecessary suffering in this cruel existence, I hope that you eventually find the peace you search for.

Same here. Death is the only thing that would erase all my problems. It would have been a bonus point if it could erase my existence all together to make it easier for others but we can't have it all. But the only thing that is giving me comfort is that I will finally be at peace. No wonder people use the word rest for dying.
