Our existence doesn't make sense

[Sigh_Sigh_Sigh]

The very fact we came from nothing to then exist in a conscious state within this world for a short few years it's just so unbelievable and honestly doesn't make sense. I just wish I could never have been born.

So, you're saying that there is something more to out existence? As in a divine something more? Just trying to understand your thought. Not sure I'm understanding it correctly.

I don't think there is anything more to our existence other than nothingness that came before and will come again after our life's end but it just doesn't make sense why we are here conscious and breathing to only die someday

Grappling with existentialism is huge, I get that. For many people this short period of existence is a blessing and for others it's a curse. If you're like me you de-value it to the point of feeling like it's an abnormality, and, for me at least, that's how I come to terms with my decision to end it.

I don't want to speak for you but it sounds like you're grappling with some pretty heavy thoughts and that can be so lonely. This is a safe space to speak :)

The greatest question of all, isn't it? How can something come out from nothing? If impossible, then there was never a nothing, but a constant change of states. However, in this case, would time be infinite, without a point of beginning? If so, how could it be possible?

So, you're saying that there is something more to out existence? As in a divine something more? Just trying to understand your thought. Not sure I'm understanding it correctly.

Even that wouldn't answer such questions, for the simple fact that, if there was something like a creator or some sort of creative process, then there was something, which is different from nothing, and the question turns to "How could a creator exist?"

That's right it makes no sense whatsoever. What makes even less sense is bringing more humans into a reality we barely understand so we can wrap them in 'cute' outfits.

It's super weird, we don't know why, and my biggest issue is that we accept it as normal and don't do anything to stop all the evil. And why did it have to be so evil to begin with? Why couldn't it have been equally good and bad at least?

Breeding sentient beings is the biggest crime, the worst offender is Nature itself.

Existence wouldn't be a issue if the problems being thrown at us weren't so overwhelming. It's unfair that a minuscule percentage of people get to enjoy rewarding lives through exploiting others while leaving the rest of us to suffer and struggle everyday.

This life is most definitely an absurdity wrapped in a mystery.

To me the existence of life certainly is such a horrific, tragic mistake, the tragedy lies in the fact that all of this was so unnecessary, there really should just be nothingness instead. I see existence as being a nightmare, it's an impermanent disturbance in what would otherwise be the perfect state of not-being, but I very strongly believe that we return to the ideal state once we are free from the nightmarish burden that is existing. Existence is just an unfortunate consequence of evolution, and it's so disturbing the amount of senseless torture and cruelty that has been experienced all throughout history and will continue to in the future, it's honestly way beyond comprehension. I see it as being irrational to see this state of existence as being desirable, this world truly is hell.

To me– probably because I was born in a muslim household– the only sense of this existence is that it's a test by a God or higher supreme power that you might like to call it. however, I have to say that it is a test that I, and many more, didn't sign up for. There should be a choice whether we want to exist and give this exam. There's so much suffering in this world, which shows the cruel, callous nature of this world. However, God knows best and who I am to refute or question him. It just hurts how there isn't an exit from this world, because if you do it yourself then you end up in hell according to our culture. So basically, im stuck here. These are my beliefs
