Question to all: What would make this life worth living for you?

[Orin]

Some sort of technology to glimpse parallel earths, or at least simulate divergent timelines where you would have made different choices.

 

[Nihil]

Be born as a biological girl and have a complete redo at life, not be crippled by student debt, and have a dozen or so fennec foxes to snuggle and play with.

I wonder how it is like to work for a living how do people do this without experiencing active suicidal ideation. The whole idea sound preposterous to me because I never had a job in my entire life, and don't view this kind of lifestyle as worthwhile. I'm curious as of how it's like to be raised without overprotective parents -- or no parents at all -- having no one to rely upon... Having so shitty life from the start, without a safe haven, that I probably wouldn't even think of suicide. Just a fleeting little thought...

You get used... to work, as long as it's not shitty enough. Now that I've begun working regularly in my late 20s I'm surprised how difficult it is in some jobs to get fired, and how much of work is doing absolutely nothing. For me work and not-working are both roughly on the same level of cognitive interaction, which is to say, very little.
I was also raised by parents who ultimately did nearly everything for me, in terms of a roof over my head and food. I never had to sustain myself, and was lazy enough to go along with it. My parents, too, are quite apathetic, so perhaps it's all genetic. I've wondered what it would be like to have a brain that actively seeks out hustling opportunities. Is it like my brain on meth or cocaine?

 

[Kdawg2018]

I think the hope of finding a loving partner to start a family with makes me want to live

 

[Taylored]

All I want is my eyesight to come back. And all my existing pain to go away that is what I'd live for

Brain is part of the body and body needs resources to function properly. Machine is fueled first and then it works by expending fuel. I had all sorts of problems when I was eating utter garbage. Chips, waffles, pancakes, bread, grains... Chronic, sharping muscle pain is gone, back whining is gone, brain fog is partially dissipated. Moobs are gone too, and I'm not missing them, хоть мне и нравится владеть женственными чертами. I like boobs on women nor men, neither.
What's the hysteria about boobs when pecs are unambiguously better on both?
Anyway... I'm saying that its important to keep our priorities straight. Brain is the biggest mouth in the house. I've read that it consumes a whole lot of resources comparatively to it's proportional volume.

Nothing. I'm nearly 50, I've seen all I've wanted to see. Life is a joke, and there is nothing that makes me want to participate in it anymore.

Do you have a family or friends?

I'm 27 and I'm at a point in life where I'm distanced from most of the family and friends I grew up with and now I just feel like an emotionless zombie out to make money to survive and nothing more...I don't really even have a sense of self or interests anymore.

Can't imagine living to be 50 with this emptiness.

It's not hard to distance yourself from people who just don't understand depression, and think you're doing it for attention.

Family was easy to push away when you have to listen to the same shit over and over.... It gets better, cheer up, find a hobby, you'll never be happy if you don't go out with friends, blah blah blah...

Friends I still have, but rarely speak too. I haven't spoken with any irl friends for about a month. I have spoken with friends I only know from here or elsewhere online, but that's either through text messages, email, or PM.

I've been by myself for the last 5 years. I cope better when there is no one around, a loner I guess you could call me. When people are around, my anxiety tends to flare up, and the more people I'm surrounded by, that anxiety goes through the roof.

And like you, I work only to survive. Other than that, my life is meaningless.

Haha. My mom says the same thing about not being happy if I don't go out with friends. I think," So all of life is unhappy, unless I have other humans to influence me, basically?"

I don't even have the money to go out with friends even if I wanted to. It doesn't even make me happy. I just become overwhelmed by people pushing their opinions and recommendations on me. Like you, I get anxiety.

I much prefer being alone as well.

If i could finally feel an orgasm its been too long my anorgasmia is killing my soul i cant cope

From the moment of birth, we are slowly approaching death,
we live without thinking about it, we kind of deny all thoughts about it, as if it did not concern us, when we realize that it also concerns us, that money, fame are even more fleeting like life, that we can not do anything about it .
we are really alone, against the ubiquitous emptiness around
us and our own powerlessness. If we have a family, friends, people we care about and care for us, in one word we have a reason to live, we do not have time to think about the sense of existence and death, when we do not have such relations, we start to realize that everything has happened for late, and that our further life off the beaten track has no purpose or sense, we retreat to the bus stop, the only thing we think about is how to do it effectively and quickly.

I was forced to have a major surgery that left me mutilated. If I could get back the body that was taken from me, that would go a long way toward keeping me here. Maybe I could even be happy again. Sadly, it's not possible to ever undo that. What's gone is gone forever, and I still can't accept it no matter how hard I try.

There are other things that add to my daily stress, but I'm not sure if fixing those would be enough. I guess it might help. I don't know. I desperately need money for something, but it's such a small amount... it's really just absurd that it's out of reach.

Basically, I'm permanently grieving a life and future that doesn't exist anymore. No amount of anything in this world can fix that.

 

[Saga]

im not sure what i want...one thing im certain about is ending it...money could bring you a lot...but the responsibility that it carries with it?...i dont think id like that..

Being an ageless immortal. That doesnt need to drink, eat nor rest. That cannot be harm in any way shape or form. So I can sit back and watch the world grows and dies around me. To witness everything and record it all. To learn all there is to learn. To know all there is to know. To hold within myself the eternity of truth and solitude. Nothing but truth. And maybe this will undeniably drive me insane. But that will a nice change of pace.

 

[Mr2005]

A time machine to go back to 2004 and correct the appalling decision I made that's ruined my life ever since. Failing that having all memory of it erased. Sadly whilst the world seems to have become a technological nightmare overnight there's been no innovations that are of any use to me. Alexa could have been of use to me then. What a pity she wasn't around

Będąc ponadczasowym nieśmiertelnym. To nie musi pić, jeść ani odpoczywać. To nie może w żaden sposób zaszkodzić kształtowi ani formie. Mogę więc usiąść i patrzeć, jak świat rośnie i umiera wokół mnie. Aby być świadkiem wszystkiego i nagrać to wszystko. Aby dowiedzieć się wszystkiego, czego można się nauczyć. Aby wiedzieć wszystko, co trzeba wiedzieć. Trzymać w sobie wieczność prawdy i samotności. Nic prócz prawdy. I może to niewątpliwie doprowadzi mnie do szaleństwa. Ale to będzie przyjemna zmiana tempa.

Hello, I agree loneliness for us people is a feeling that in many cases is the cause of suicides and strange mental states, in the case of God we do not know how it is. Tip
it may be here that in Hebrew, besides JHWH and as Adonai, in GOD there is a singular number, also in the plural of Elohim and
Ribonim, for us people always means unity in every case.
We can not really know more than we can.

I'd have to be a different person. I am my problem and my life is not salvageable. I am doomed to my condition as it is my destiny. So it's not like I'm against all life - it's just that I've decided my own life is not going to work for me, but say if I was someone else, a normal person or maybe someone I knew, it would be different. Plenty of people stick around and live great lives. The lucky ones. It's all just happenstance and I've happened to fall into a life who's most favored option is suicide. No way around it.

I believe I now have crystal foresight into the continuity of my existence which is why I am adamant about my decision to CTB. There aren't going to be any surprises. I would need to have a completely life-altering experience, one of which is absolutely inconceivable to me, in order to desire to continue living indefinitely.

 

[komm susser todd]

Ultimately id want two things.

1. To not be me. I want to be some one that can honestly like myself, like where im at, like what i do. Id have to be able to look in the mirror and not hate the piece of crap staring back at me.

2. To have a woman that is my reason to press on. Some one to make me want to get out of bed to deal with that crappy boss. Some one i can come home too and be grateful to see everyday when i get home. Some one i can hold and feel like i couldnt love anyone as much as who im holding in my arms and for her to feel the same way.

Fat chance

 

[Zer0]

I'm not sure if it wolud work but if i had someone by my side at least half of my problems would go away, maybe some money would also help.

 

[mathieu]

If I had good mental health I think I would want to live.

 

[Journeytoletgo]

A healthy brain with no traumas
A nice face
Social skills

 

[deathLiberation]

Supreme knowledge. Understanding the real truth, the final answer, about this existence. Wtv it may be.

Or

Millions of dollars

 

[FuneralCry]

Nothing would ever make me want to live. I want nothing to do with life. No matter what I would still want to die. I just want to be at peace, to sleep forever. That is all I want.

 

[TheHatedOne]

having someone honest and decent by my side I think...

 

[Seaghost]

Need to erase some things of the deepest inside of myself, true parents in the past, not having a hole in my heart that no one can fill, no mobbing at school back then

Summary: not possible

 

[Circles]

As of right now where I am in life. My mom stop smoking cigarettes and being able to retire, my eyes getting better, finding someone to date or atleast fool around with, lose weight, not having to worry about money, finding these cats I've been taking care a good home. I'll stop there before I get into things that's not possible half of which I said already are.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

Literally just a girl who likes me and who I could see becoming my wife eventually. Seems simple but this is honestly so monumentally improbable that one might as well wait for lightning to strike exactly fourteen penguins at the same time at exactly 6:09 am Pacific standard time on the third Saturday of August while a homeless person who formerly majored in Marketing at Harvard wins the lottery. Sure it COULD happen but why expect it to?

I guess another thing that could make life worth living for me is if I had a locked-in career with some dream company of mine like either Nintendo or the Pokémon Company International. I actually applied to Nintendo last year but wasn't accepted and it's just as well since that office was shut down recently anyway. Oh well. This one is probably also very unlikely though not as much as the first scenario. I'd say this one is about as likely to happen as a sea lion eating a 6 year old while her 13 year old sister films it for Tik Tok.
