We all have certain things we desire in life. What are some of yours and what things and changes would make life more bearable for you to live?

I honestly can't think of anything that would make life worth living, at least in this world.

A time machine. Failing that having my memory erased. Failing that winning the lottery and being able to afford to do whatever I want. Most notably having as little to do with society as possible. Takes any current pressures out of the equation. Just all the time in the world to dwell on the past whilst filling the void with material things. Basically what I do anyway. Maybe I 'd use the money to build a time machine lol. I wish

This. If the psychological pain and intermittent insanity I get from bipolar stopped there is no chance in hell I would ctb.

Maybe one day I'll find medication that works.

If the poor minimum wage slaves in the United States ...... Were to rise up ...... And wage a bloody war ...... Against the Billionaires who have destroyed this nation ...... I would smile ...... I would gladly join in the conflict ...... I cannot fight a nation of corrupt Billionaires alone ...... If the poor and the middle class are too Cowardly ...... To attack their wealthy captors ...... Than the American cowards deserve to be enslaved ...... Personally ...... I would rather die ...... Than be a slave.

Nothing. I would have to be a different person in order to enjoy life in this world. So my current instantiation would have to be terminated anyway.

Somebody started the topic with same discussion earlier. Anyway, simply if I won't be mentally I'll and be able to have a family and a child. This would be the meaning for me to keep struggling in this shitty world. Yet, I know this act of having family would consider me as selfish. Big thanks to recently passed away @Prime (Rest In Peace, soulmate) who made me realize that fact.

Nothing I guess. I find that anything that currently still makes me happy are just distraction from the inevitable painful suffering I am going through or going to go through.

A couple of things spring to mind. Firstly, if my girl would stop playing head fucked games, that would help. In fact if I could just get over her, that in itself would be a massive improvement. You can't love me one day and then not the next. This cycle repeats itself over and over, pull me in, push me away, pull me in... I guess you can't help who you love and even though I know the relationship is toxic, I can't break free.

Happiness and free from the torture of mental illness. Sick of feeling like shit, EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. Again, the cycle repeats, from high, to low, to high, to low...

That's a good one. I am on the autism spectrum or at least have the syptoms of it according to my psychiatrist.

I also feel mentally ill with my brain fog and feeling of mental retardation.

Yeah, I don't necessarily have to live an extravagent life. Just a reasonably good life where I can be happy and have good friends that make me feel good.

For the short term, it would be either getting a (tolerable) job to make sure that I don't go homeless and broke or being able to get on disability for my conditions (Anxiety and Aspergers), improvement in social life, having a way out when things go to shit (a method, preferably a firearm).

Long term, it would be decent health (physical and mentally), restoring my ability to play the piano to the level that I want as well as pursuing some musical goals that I had dreamed of, the implementation of UBI (Universal Basic Income), a decent social life and ability to make good friends (doesn't mean I have to - but I'd like to have that ability to do so) and maybe a healthy relationship (not a gold digger/cheater/catfisher, etc.), curing of Aspergers syndrome. Some societal changes such as but not limited to, legalization of voluntary euthanasia (or ability to move to a country that has those laws), less stigmatization of mental illness and suicide, abolishing involuntary commitment (except in cases of danger to others rather than a danger to oneself.), and more justice.

Realistically speaking, all of those things that I want are pretty much either farfetched, unlikely to happen, and/or not feasible attainable.

For me personally this might be a very unpopular opinion but it would be if there was actually a loving god out there who actually cared about us enough to do something and if there was a heaven after this, then everyone could have a chance at living a good life without all the stressing and pressure of this terrible world after getting through this mess and you wouldn't have to worry about things like hunger, sleeping,pain, etc and you wouldn't have to die unless you wanted to not exist anymore. Sigh a boy can dream

A desire to be around others. Being able to connect with others in meaningful ways. Not feeling so easily disposable. Feeling as if i have more to offer than sex. Being someone's ONLY priority. A family.

A bit of greed. Some shallowness and financial security. Oh, and the ability to freeze time.... I'm always running late.

So basically a new brain and magic.

Not having a medical condition that has made every little thing like taking a shower or going to the store difficult for the last 4.5 years. Having my old, non-foggy, non-anxious brain back. Not being hounded by debt collectors threatening to take me to court. Having a proper family. Having some money. Not having immigration threaten to deport me over my American ex-wife running off with some random from Facebook. That would be a start.

Unfortunately as you can see I have way too much going on. It's too much for one person to handle. My brain has given up.

Not being isolated, not being treat like shit or a kid which keeps me isolated, not having the deep wounds from all the bullying belittlement and abuse, having my basic human social needs met. There is a lot more but my brain isn't working, it looks like my picture.
