I send my sincerest condolences at your bereavement, but death will not join you with your mother. She no longer exists, and neither will you after dying.

To the question from your topic: in the USA, there is what's called an epidemic of suicide. This is bollocks. It is an epidemic of people feeling like shit. Attack the cause and you will address the effect.
That seems a bit harsh. It's your opinion she won't join with her mum but no one knows what happens after death do they? We all have our own view on that.

Sweetheart I'm so sorry what a horrible time you're going through. I would probably feel the same way losing a loved one, but now may not be the time to make a decision about ctb. You will obviously feel horrendous right now. Just wait and give yourself time to think things through xxx

There's no credible evidence of perception once the brain chemistry goes south, but harshness wasn't the point of my post.
Saying 'she no longer exists' to someone whose mum has just died is shitty regardless of your religious/ spiritual persuasion. It may comfort her to believe her mum does still exist somewhere. Who are you to dispute that?

If I'm being honest, it's cuz we're probably mentally ill. Every living species on the planet has the same common goal which is to live, survive and reproduce and therefore to wish for death on ourselves goes against the natural instinct of our body which indicates a possible defect in the brain.

The truth is brutal but I've come to accept the reality of my/our condition.

There's isn't anything wrong if that's what's being implied. And I'm sure there are some who are truly ill mentally but, many aren't. For fear of coming off like an edgy teenager this world is sick. And you should have a right to access your role in it and what you want to do with it.

But a lot of us aren't Living. If the costs of staying alive outweigh the benefits, it makes perfect sense to want to die.

Technically, if you're breathing RN that means you're living.

IDK what point you're trying to convey here since I had already mentioned that the loss of will to live is a sign of mental illness.

We feel this way because our fckin brains are faulty. Or maybe we realize that in the end life is meaningless and we just waste time suffering here.

I'm sorry about your mom :heart:

I'm so sorry to hear about your mum. That was really recent so it's understandable you feel this way. Did you feel strong urges to end it before she passed? If not, give yourself time to grieve would be my advice.. not to sound patronising at all, but your head probably isn't in the right place to make any big decisions just yet. Have you got any grief support groups locally who could help you? You're not alone and there are people here for you :heart:

We're not LIVING, we're existing.

Choosing not to exist when you've got no happiness or fulfilment etc is the opposite of being a sign of mental illness isn't it?

I'm so sorry to hear this. Truly, I am. My mom died the Christmas of 2018, so a little over a year ago. I was suicidal before her death. Her cancer diagnosis, plus my Uncle's sudden death made me feel like I had to delay my own because my family was already going through so much. Around the end of October is when I finally felt I couldn't delay it any longer and my first attempts were in December. People who know how bad I'm feeling right now, and I have kind of passively mentioned suicide to, always bring up that I'm just still grieving my mother's death and not to make any huge decisions. But the truth was, I was already suicidal before she even fell ill and the timeline of her death and of my deteriorating physical and mental health is just a coincidence. Not that her death didn't affect me and that I don't miss her dearly, but I would be right where I am now if she were still alive. Much love to you, friend.

I think it's when one of those common goals, specifically surviving/reproducing is messed with/made extremely difficult is when we start to feel like this. For me I felt immense joy every day of life for a while until I was prescribed something that shut down my ability to reproduce. And wouldt you know, shit went south quick.
