What would stop you from being suicidal?

[thereisthemist]

ohh this question itself is so telling about reality of today's attitude towards suicides.
the simpler an answer is given, the harder it hits me
and personally, ironically, a hug here and now would actually stop me from (being suicidal at this moment)™
that is some rational of why mist is giving remote huggies as well
mist is that cute demon after all isn't it

Surprisingly to everyone, most of all me, being put on a medicine (adderall) that helped with my ceaseless and all encompassing fatigue has relieved 90% of my yearslong chronic suicidal ideation.

It's not like I think life is great and if I could never have been born, I would choose that without a second thought. But I'm no longer obsessed with expediting my own (mercifully inevitable) death.

Being able to go to work without anxiety and feeling like I'm entering a war. Having enough money where work can just become a hobby. Better body, better teeth. To have romantic and sexual urges eliminated. I want to be able to get over things quickly or not ever be hurt by peoples words for the most part. Perfect mental health for my entire family. So pretty much all that would make me not want to ctb.

a different world. too many horrible things happening in this one.

 

[suicidalinsomniac410]

Being able to hold onto a job and friends and a relationship. Doesn't seem possible though with all the trauma and depression and head injuries I've been through..

If I didn't get the poison shot the rest was hard already (failed nasal surgery , many past traumas) but what this thing did to me just sealed the deal

Hey, I'm intrested to know what happened? was this from the covid shot? which one did you get and what happened? I also had a terrible reaction from one and regretted it and never got another!

 

[maddaddam]

a normal brain
the ability to maintain literally any relationship, platonic *or* romantic
any form of love in my life that i dont end up destroying
somewhere clean and safe to sleep
an income

an apology, or at least an acknowledgement of wrongdoings to the extent that ive acknowledged my own... hell, just to hear her say she even regrets how she treated me would go a long way
god knows i do
or
even just the ability to forget about it all and move on instead

idk
no one small thing would change how i feel
i think, save for the first one, even if i had all those things id still be just as depressed
but i doubt a single one is achievable so ill probably never get to test that theory...

I so get that. All chances gone tho.

No idea. Money to start with as in many cases, as this can solve many other problems that add up to feeling suicidal. After that having my grandmother and mother back (today is 2 years as she passed from c19). I think being financially stable without need to work (as work enviroments are a killer for mental health) is a solution for many people on here. They say money cant but happines but it can buy better mental health that can keep you safe from wanting to cbt. Messed up world only for chosen few that are on top.

global warming not ending me prematurely any damn way .
I'm half joking, my turbulent eco-anxiety is only one reason.

Something to hope for

 

[Temporal_Anchorite]

• Being financially well-off OR at the very least, working in a career that I don't absolutely loathe.
• Successfully completing my education
• Mending all the interpersonal relationships I undermined as a result of my self-destructive petulance, maladaptation and socially isolative behavior.
• Having a small, but strong, closely-knit social circle.
• An optimal state of mental health & stable temperament, or at least having reliable methods to better manage my more debilitating symptoms

 

[Hurt]

Having a healthy body again will definitely stop me from being suicidal

 

[BeautifulMosaics]

Being able to cure my executive dysfunction and apathy. I could deal with the depression and even the phobias if that was the deal.

A healthy body

No idea, though I'm no longer suicidal. So, here are the potential factors:

• Getting fired from Walmart - Started working at a job where I'm finally appreciated and get paid better.
• Identifying why things went wrong, and overcame some trauma.
• Words from a CSM, kinda helped me figure everything out and inspired me to keep going, even though what she told me was a platitude in retrospect.
• Finally realizing what my goal is in life.
• Breaking the barrier of suicidal resolve, which I'm too suicidal to die; my will to live is undying and renews itself when it's on the brink of being shattered.
• Backup ᛇ Dream
• Letting go of my victim mentality.

My family taking responsibility for what happened, and letting me go to pursue my dream/last chance.
