Discussion What would make your life worth living it?

[daydreamer52]

There must be something, or if at this point you just want to die and stop existing it's understandable, but if not tell me, what's that that would fill the emptiness inside you?

 

[SenseOfLoss]

True love

 

[TorturedSoul999]

this is actually interesting to think about. There are times when I feel like my suicidal thoughts are overblown and that I will be happy again someday but…. then I'm reminded of how happy I used to be when I was with her. So I tell myself. Hey. You know what? At least you got to live. Part of me doesn't want a life without them.

Finding love again. But I'm constantly reminded that this will never happen again. Someone to make what I used to love enjoyable again. Instead of the pure emptiness I feel. Yes I have family, but my now ex wife cheating and emotionally abusing me has broken me. It's not like I've not tried to find someone. Been on countless dates. Tried to do the things she didn't want me doing while we were together. Travel. Hiking. Camping. Concerts. It all feels empty without someone to share it with. Plan on CTB sometime at the end of the year. Just need to get my goodbyes in order.

I was the victim of crimes that robbed me of my future as a doctor. I just want them heard. Restitution/getting the financial component of my life back would be great and needed. But the anger I feel from being shoved to the margins by society as soon as something broke against me is shocking. It was immediate. I worked my ass off in life soon as a bump in the road where I needed help happened. *everyone* threw me aside. So having what happened heard and validated is what I'm seeking. Holding those who did it accountable. Because I can't live with the anger. It's eating me alive.

I have this weird fantasy constantly that I kill myself via seppuku and get transported back in time ten years to correct past life choices. I'm really have an adverse reaction to the effects of aging and wish I was as healthy as I was in the past, that would make life worth living.

maybe if my friend will come back i'll have a purpose to live and make things better again but that is impossible...

With or without knowledge that you currently have? I guess my question is do you want to relive those moments or do you want to change things in your past to correct your life?

 

[depressedteddybear]

Love and not having the massive mood swings I have and not dealing with my depression

 

[wristcutangel]

there's things i want to do still, but nothing is worth actually being alive for me.

If I had a higher IQ the lack of love might be worth it. Right now it just hurts to know those smarter and more attractive than me, better loved by peers, exist. Maybe If I wasn't homeschooled k-10 it might be worth it. But at the end of the day, life is full of an abundance suffering and a small amount of happiness. Therfore the ending of life is itself a moral act. Because it is the end of all suffering. Nonexistence. Even if god exists, I am inclined to not believe in heaven and hell. It's a bit of a wish fulfillment concept.

 

[Rust20]

The longing for meaning keeps me going, even if it means endless suffering on Earth and in hell. Eternal pain I endure.

There's isn't any 'filling of emptiness' when your lifetime companion dies, whereas nothing can ever bring her back, I just continue to live a lifeless life

 

[Raven2]

Finding love again would make life worth living again. I'm trying. Im getting out and dating, trying to find someone. But cant shake the feeling I found the one already and that all went to shit.
Other areas of my life are okay just want to feel loved again.

I remember first thinking that I didn't want to be alive at only 6 or 7 years old. I genuinely believe that I would've had to have been born a completely different person with a different brain to feel like life is worth it. I think some people are just built to withstand life better than others.

Love and not having the massive mood swings I have and not dealing with my depression

literally the same

 

[Sad Avocado]

true love

If I wasn't used and abused sexually, if I never had childhood trauma, if I wasn't a system, and if I wasn't hypersexual. I'm tired of being seen as a sex object to people, especially due to the fact that I am mentally ill, I am a fucking human, not a sex toy and the fact that I am seen as such due to having alters who people deem sexually attractive. I'm always told "You should let such and such front so I can fuck them!" I feel like I have no purpose other than sex due to my entire life being exposed to explicit material and abused/used sexually. I probably wouldn't be on this site in the first place if none of this even happened.

Enough money to not give a shit about anything and do all I've wanted.

Hello, I think my something is if I found someone who completely understood me. Someone who would not make me feel as if my thought processes were abnormal.
If someone truly gave me a chance, I think I could find the willpower to live with this life longer.

 

[FailerQt.]

That one person returning my feelings I have for them.

 

[Pidgeons_Sparrows]

a hell of a lot of money, and some latina booty
also something that magically fixes all my countless mental illnesses

 

[TAW122]

Nothing much really, but as far as pushing CTB much further down in life rather than feeling stressed and a sense of urgency would be the legalization of voluntary euthanasia, acceptance of death as a normal part of life, and destigmatization of the discussion about CTB and death itself. Until we live in such a reality, life itself is not (objectively nor subjectively for me) worth living.

 

[Klophy]

To not be me, that would solve all my problems. It'll only introduce new ones, so probably not a good idea.

Money, love, passion? Something to keep me going.


I can think of a bunch of things, but honestly, i'm not sure if they'll keep me alive or only push it further down the road.

 

[neonzebra]

As most other people have said already... money or love.

 

[busybee]

Winning the lottery and just laying by the ocean, existing in solitude and silence would be neat.
I could buy and try drugs too then to try and feel something.
