things worth doing before death

[lostininjury]

If you are into edm, going to a rave and rolling. I went to my first rave new years 2022 at 36. I had the most amazing time. If I wasn't injured I'd be raving until I die.

This is such a strange question for this forum, I don't know what makes you think that existence has been enjoyable and worth enduring for everyone, I bet that if people felt in such a way they wouldn't be on this site and wanting to ctb. Existence could never be a desirable state to me, it's so dreadful and futile, I don't get why people are on this site if they supposedly enjoy existing so much, existence could never be worth enduring to me no matter what, I've only ever wished for perfect non-existence free from everything.

You have a very specific way of experiencing life. I suppose we all do in a way. Ideation though can affect people who- up until that point have enjoyed their lives. Some people who still DO enjoy aspects of life still have the realisation that their entire life isn't sustainable ie. the bad outweighs the good. Just because someone enjoys something- it doesn't make them a pro-lifer. It doesn't make their wish to die any less real or intense.

I do feel bad for how you feel. I've come to realise that the tiniest amount of positivity here triggers you and for you- it seems to invalidate that persons suffering ie. if you like one tiny aspect of life- you can't be suicidal.

The last thing I want to do is make you feel issolated but I hesitate to suggest that your experience of life isn't typical- not even for people here. I've read your posts for a long time now and it seems like you don't have even one single reasonably happy memory in life. Or, where you are now- you refuse to accept that you've ever enjoyed anything in your past. I'd say the majority of people can recall at least one thing they enjoyed. So- while I agree- this may be a little upbeat for this part of the forum- I wouldn't say it's an unreasonable question.

Sorry- I didn't mean to be unkind saying all that. I guess I just wanted to point out that ideation takes many forms because we are all different. It isn't only valid if you are utterly miserable 24/7 and have been forever. So- a public forum like this (in my view) is bound also to reflect people with varying experiences- some of those will be the want for positive experiences before death.

With regards to the original question- As for me- maybe one of my happiest memories was snorkling. If you like nature and the sea that is- it's incredible to be immersed in a totally alien world. If you've got the money and the ability/energy- I'd say maybe travel to somewhere you've always wanted to see. I think that's what I would want to do- maybe not as exotic as an overseas holiday but there are a few places in my resident country I would love to see and say goodbye to.

For me, it's to accomplish what I do enjoy in life, which is cuddling with my cat, hang out with my best friend (never had the chance to before since they're online), finish a story in a ton of unfinished stories in my drafts, and have fun with video games. It's the smallest things that matter at the end, imo.

I wish I had money to do a lot of things before my death. Poverty is uphill.

I plan to run up my credit card. No point in it if I"m going to die anyway. Sorry to hear that though, poverty is an absolute bitch.

I have no list of things to do before I die, why spend that energy I can't take those memories with me and they aren't going to change the fact that Im trying to leave soon as possible not trying to be delayed by activities

Nothing particularly unique to add but cat cuddles for sure, walks in nature (although for me they have lost their original enjoyability due to the way I see the world now, but still nice), driving and belting out favorite songs like it's your last performance.

Sometimes I think I could adopt an alter ego and pretend to be the confident, sassy weirdo I am when I'm alone but my social conditioning and stupid self-consciousness won't allow me.

I don't think I want to do anything . I feel like doing anything interesting/fun will only make it more difficult to ctb. I'd rather my ctb be fast and fatal without having any fun so I get convinced not to do it

going to try playing the lottery and watch the entirety of bojack horseman... again

For me it's just continuing my "exposing" series, I know a lot so I'm going to make sure all these people show their true faces…. Once things said in the dark comes to light, things will never be the same again! period and I like highlighting people and their hypocrisy….. and then boom I will ctb….

 

[themisfell]

bumping this one more time because I'm pretty close to my date now. I've gotten to do some of the things listed here and they were a lot of fun though, I appreciate it :)

i'm actually gonna go ahead and answer my question too. really stupid answer, but the JAWssie drink from Outback Steakhouse is so good. I also had never been to an Outback Steakhouse before so the food there was pretty good, but the drink was easily the highlight.

Tbh... I wanna learn and create some kpop dances. I wanna adopt or foster a cat for a bit. Unfortunately the cat cafe closed here so

I wanna keep writing poems & lyrics and play guitar. Jus lots of creative stuff tbh.

Knit a bit more... watch funny things. Etc etc.

Oh and I'd love to cook myself a vegan meal or just keep eating delicious take out.

I'm not too sure if I'm able to do any of that though as rn the dishes are really bothering me but finding the energy and drive to do em is low. Maybe if I took my adhd meds it'd help but I find when I am not doing much they leave me too awake or whatever? So what I wanna do may not be able what I can or am able to do :/
