Why would anyone not want to kill themselves?

I think upbringing is everything. If you're raised by parents who equip you with the right mental "toolkit" you are far better at weathering life's challenges.

My parents must have lost that toolkit.

Lol same. I think many others here on the forum would agree too.

It seems unfathomable to me that some people really don't wanna die, they wanna become 100 years old and more, they are trying everything to life, even if it's hard.


Are these people retarded?
Do I live on the same planet as them?
Are they on Crack or meth?
Like wtf is wrong with them, seems like we live in a different universe.

They piss me off acting like all of this here is fine and just normal everyday stuff, like wtf is wrong with them, this is the place before hell, it could only get worse here if we were on fire 24/7.

As quiet as it's kept, a lot of people on SaSu are just closet pro-lifers who actually envy the people who like it here. And it shows in what they write in their posts. They feel out of place in an insane asylum. They feel like their missing out on something. They're just mad that the dice haven't rolled their way, so they lash out by crying suicide or mental health, or something to get sympathy and attention from anyone who will halfway listen. I'm not judging them, despite what I just wrote, but I find that tragic and heartbreaking. It's sad to read the words of a seemingly beautiful, poetic soul (even if they don't know it) feel as if they're not enough for a failed, fucked up, mean world. That they're not a "normal" person, when the "normal" person on this planet is a fucking mess of countless pathologies and self-destructive addictions, at best.

I agree with you in all aspects. They don't piss me off, though. After a while, I guess I came to realize that demons like it in hell. The only ones complaining are the tormented souls. It amazes me that people can look around at the world dying (physically and figuratively) and want to continue to try and have a family and cope with it. In my belief, this universe is infinite, and this world is one of many. There are many more, and better, worlds and experiences to be had other than this one. This life is like the abusive guy who tells his woman that she's never going to find anyone else like him. That she has nowhere else to go but to him. It keeps souls here through lies and deceptions. That speaks volumes about the human world when one has to lie to themselves about the realities of it to make it seem beautiful and worth living.

I'm like you. I'll never understand how people strive to continue to live in this dying and deceptive shithole. Maybe fear. Perhaps stupidity. Both? I don't know.

My bf's mother is 94. She is in pain a lot and is all hunched over with a walker. She can barely hear and has some dementia. She is so fucking happy it would blow your mind. She always wants to go clothes shopping for new outfits and just wants to be out in general around other people. She talks about living another 10 years! It's quite obvious to me that happiness levels are genetic. My Bf is a very happy person too as are his siblings.

My mother is 94. She has bad dementia. Jots of pain and has been in the bed for 6 months. She says she wants to die every day.

So horrible and inhumane. I'm so sorry.

For me... I somehow don't wish CTB, and probably won't wish it as strongly as I had in the past... probably because I learnt that the reasons behind it were not as scary as I thought they would be, and I managed to improve a bit.

Also, after making friends here, and seeing the impact of goodbye posts, I wouldn't want to hurt the friends here (nor even pet's emotions) by CTBing... unless something goes extremely south irl.
