Discussion What do you do to conquer/beat Sl?

[DrownFeather]

So i thought opening thread about methods of fighting Sl which is the main cause of failing cbt for many

i myself will wait for that crashing moment and then be wake for more than 24 hours and then take sleep pills wait it to kick and accept that im mortal and death is inevitable and it will release me from suffer, then listen to music i love to calm down and close eyes and do it

What's your methods/thoughts about how to beat Sl?

I think that many people are able to overcome the SI when the pain of living gets to be unbearable and they get desperate. Ctb is very difficult but of course many people have died that way, they must have been suffering a lot to be able to get the courage. I do not really know how to overcome the SI as I am still here, of course the SI is very difficult to overcome as we are all programmed to survive. I wish you the best in whatever happens.

That's true, mostly it's the fear that blocking us, fear of the unknown end or pain maybe even a fear of choosing the wrong decision, but if someone has no fear well then he is ready to choose his path.

To me, I see it as an act of self-love, and an act of taking control for yourself and following your desires when life is giving you no options to do so. Maybe that sounds a bit pretentious though lol?

I really agree it helps to be desperate - being in a place where the thought of having to face life is more terrifying than the thought of dying seems as though it would aid things. I don't often have moments of doubt, but when I do just going through a list of what is going on in my life sends me spiralling back again.

Decision on getting peace might be a reason of self-love to end it's suffer, but doubting the moments is not bad at all it's might make you see the truth that lies behind

Absolutely nothing. Nobody experienced in the topic can comment.
But I think as long as you try to force yourself, your time has not come. Exposure to years of trauma and experience of violence, operations, and enduring extremely tense situations is helpful here. Then when others panic at an event and you are an unshakable rock. When you know that in any case you will finish your task in peace anyway.
I find in it the act of managing my own destiny and I relish it.

I know, no one here is experienced of how to stop Sl as if they did they will be already have cbt, but sharing and discussion ideas can be helpful to find way around it

True that shock/temporarily events will definitely not make you able to conquer it but with years of hopelessness it's really get easy to just do it than anything else

But I think as long as you try to force yourself, your time has not come.

I like what you said here, some try to force it by setting a deadline or waiting event to do it but it's really not that good, i think who cbt do it unconditionally and with no rethinking or hesitation and with no thoughts of "i will do it if X happen" usually they backout it with that

I always tried to imagine how my future will be and to think I'd have to go through even more suffering for years or even decades and for what exactly? Atleast if I killed myself soon I wouldn't have to bother with wasting anymore time. Also trying to think death is nothing but going to sleep and nothing more.

Well that hopelessness i talked about it's just make it more and more sensible to just cbt, as nothing really matters or last anyway
