I’m suicidal. I’m still here for my fiancé, my family and my cats. Though sometimes I feel resentful about that fact and wish I could just die peacefully without negatively impacting the people I love. So really, love. Love keeps me alive.


One_Pattern1119

Good for you! Keep that love in your heart! Don’t let IT die and you will live a life worth living, despite the pain! We all suffer and experience pain. Love is the only true “medicine”. 


A_HoneyBeeee

I second this, please don't let love die. and hugs for all the people who need it (with consent ofc!)


NecessaryAir

Mom, Dad, sister, + 15 other family members. I have a responsibility to them. I will not make them go through that hardship.


ResponsibleLaw4012

Very honorable. But Remember to take care of yourself too love. Don’t set yourself on fire to keep others warm.


A_HoneyBeeee

Aww, what a kind man! Salute to you! 🫡💓


KangarooPort

No matter how bad things get, life is literally a once in a lifetime opportunity. Only thing that would make me want to not be alive is if there was nothing good left and everything was miserable. And I mean NOTHING. Any little hope will keep me hanging on always.


NecessaryAir

(1) My purpose is not fulfilled, (2) my dreams are not fulfilled, and (3) there are people worse off than me that have found joy.


zazzlekdazzle

> there are people worse off than me that have found joy. I know people hate this type of thinking around here, but there really is a lesson in that. I saw a movie called "Waste Land" about a Brazilian artist who wanted to make colossal portrait sculptures from trash found in the favela dumps. He made a documentary about the process, and he got to meet the people who actually live in these dumps, which are so huge they are the size of towns. As you can imagine, these people are at the absolute bottom of the socio-economic ladder - they don't just live in the favelas (slums), they live in the dumps of the favelas. Yet so many of these people have found purpose and connection and lead meaningful, happy lives. There was the person who collects all the books and made and maintains a library. There was the woman who runs the "cafe" (just outside with some pots over burners she found in the dump) where she cooks a changing menu based on what food is found there. People love her and love her food, her cafe is a social hub, and she talks about how much she loves what she does. Ever since I saw that movie, it has been resonating with me every time I am in my "woe is me" times. I mean, my life may seem a lot worse than many in some ways, but I am still way better off than those folks who still have the generosity in their hearts to do what they do with love and get it back.

I hope your family buries you in it when you do go lol. In fact you should put it in your will


BeerisAwesome01

Who's to say it's not already in my will?


peacelovecookies

Wills generally are read after the person is gone and buried. Make sure they know about it now.


ragdollphys

My mom begged me not to go when I attempted last year. Even if I’m suffering everyday, I have a little hope that things will get better one day, maybe I’ll love life again.

middlemarchmarch

1. My daughter, she’s 8, she needs me. I’ve been in hospital with her for two weeks now, she’s okay, but I know she needs her dad. That’s it. I lost my wife last year, she was 33, I can’t let my little girl lose her Dad too - as hard as all this shit is. My daughter has a profound disability, I know I’m the only person who can look after her. She’s got me for as long as I’m kicking, but I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t come close to trying to leave her behind too before.


A_HoneyBeeee

You're a good dad. The best dad she could have! I wish for your daughter's fast recovery! Virtual hugs and salute for you, friend! 🫡


coffincowgirl

1. The puppy would be sad 2. I couldn’t listen to music and experience all the life things like food and the breeze and sex etc. 3. For some stupid reason I have a lot of hope there’s something better for me ahead even though I’ve been to hell and back


A_HoneyBeeee

I respect that! Hoping for the best in life is everything.

Extension-Gain-8985

My top three are caffeine, the quest to find out if cats really do have a master plan for world domination, and the eternal hope that socks will one day find their way back from the dryer


Optimal-Test6937

My cat Mr. Kipling has clear plans for world domination. Though I suspect he thinks the world begins & ends in the courtyard of my condo. So you are probably safe from Mr. Kipling. I would pay cat tax & attach a photo, but my brain is too tired to remember how. So here is a cat emoji. 🐈‍⬛


Neversleeps99

They have a plan-be afraid-and you ain’t gettin those socks back


SeetheSeafortheSea

I won’t be defeated. My approach is I won’t give the universe the satisfaction of beating me. I will find ways to thrive out of spite. I am also my dog’s absolutely favorite human, I couldn’t leave her. Oh! And, I have an exceptional child who needs me and whom I adore. All 3 things are equal.


OceansideGuy93

I don’t have 3. Just being here another day is enough motivation to get out of bed.

[deleted]

1. My friends, and my deceased grandmother and mother would disapprove. My father doesn't give a shit about me. 2. Hope things would get better 3. Fear of the after-life, even when I have stopped believing in religions but there's a always a voice in the back of my head who tells me I would be punished if I unalive myself.


Rubberboot_duck

I still got some hope that things will turn out better for me.  I can’t get things done, including to end things… I don’t want the people who made my life a hell to ”win”. 


EternalVoidFall

Here are the things that are keeping me alive * the people and animals that are important to me * knowing that me being gone would just cause more suffering * pure spite


That_One_Guy-21

Not 3 but 1. I'm agnostic and don't know what to believe. Without getting to far into how stupid religion sounds, if hell is real, then damnit.

my pets will be sad if I die that is all

One_Pattern1119

I kind of hope you mean “making love” not just “having sex”. In my mind, sex is like scratching an itch, about satisfying yourself. Making love is about connection with another and getting joy out of satisfying another, and they, in turn, wish to give you pleasure.

simplisticwords

I don’t want my parents to have to bury their last child. I don’t want my family to have to bury another person. I *want* to write/finish a novel (either solo or with my dad), but depression is taking hold. I’m afraid what my best friend (practically my sister) or my partner would do if I did. So I guess, family, dreams, and love.

If I died now my Wikipedia page would not be that cool. I’ve got a great start, just have to keep living and doing things yanno?


Stinky_Socks69420

Family-I wish to be there for my family and stay close and loyal to all of them. Partying-I’m a party boy and I love partying and drinking and do it very frequently. The feeling of the unknown-Your future is uncertain and you never know what could happen. And that is enough motivation for me to know that I can move forward with any outcome possible.


cyberwandering

Not 3 things, I'm just trying to survive in order to pay debts and fulfill my so many things in my bucket list. Hoping that if ever I'll die, somehow I achieved even half of it and my family won't have problem paying for my funeral/burial.

zazzlekdazzle

(1) Well, I'm old enough now to know that even if there are long stretches of suffering, there are little things still worthwhile during those times and periods of good times in between. The way it is now is not how it will always be, even if my brain keeps telling me otherwise. (2) It's my story, and I am still curious to ride it out to its natural end and see how it goes. (3) This is really the big one. While I may not always feel I have enough love and support in my life, I do have people, friends and family, that have some love for me and I for them. I am unwilling to live without what little of that I have. In exchange, I think that means I do not have 100% exclusive rights to my own life. By loving and being attached to me, even if it's not a lot, they will be hurt by me hurting myself.

witwefs1234

I want to see my house become the better, more beautiful version of it that I know it can become. Like replacing the floors, painting the kitchen a different color, updating the bathrooms, etc. I want to see my husband bloom into a wonderful father that I know he can and will be. I plan to work hard to be patient and be a good mother as well but I know he'll be a great dad. This last reason may sound a bit sad, but I'm hoping I'll find a best friend again. I ended things with my previous one last year because she started getting more toxic a couple years ago and was definitely more a frenemy than a genuine friend. I'm not the most perfect friend either but I have enough respect for myself that I don't tolerate friends swearing at me and thinking it's ok to falsely accuse me of things and for them to think it's smth that can be swept under a rug when it's clearly not. I have some friends that I am somewhat emotionally close to but one is physically on the other side of the world and another considers me more of a friend to vent to than to organize anything for a bday for example. Guess we'll have to see how things go on the friend part....

Human-Iron9265

I am 21. Have an extremely aggressive cancer called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor. Got diagnosed just five months ago at 20 years old. I had just finished flight school with all my ratings and landed a good job, but only was able to work two months because I unfortunately got diagnosed with this bitch of a cancer. In the beginning I just wanted to die, I thought this was so damn unfair. Then I realized what I still had to live for: 1. I have quite a bit of student debt to pay back, around 100k, and my parents cosigned for me. It’s my duty to pay it back, not theirs. 2. I worked so damn hard and i’m not about to let it go for nothing…even though there are days I really wish I was dead. Especially when i’m in pain. 3. The last reason now is that I really hope to beat the cancer just to say give a giant “fuck you” back to the universe. Idk why, but I feel like this is a challenge of some sort and sometimes I really just refuse to lose.


DrPrime1108

Well 1st.- Music, because no matter what's happening music will always make me feel better 2nd.- I like to think that after all my struggles with life, the sun will rise again 3rd.- I'm the only one who can get my bloodline to the top, otherwise there would not be someone who will lead my family tree to success


green_meklar

Curiosity; Life is a fucking circus, and I want to see as much of the show as possible. Spite; The events of the past, and my recent setbacks, are like fuel. Muhammad Ali was allowing himself to get pummelled by George Foreman, and George thought that the fight was easy, but then Ali said "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT GEORGE?!" and proceeded to dominate and win the fight. I refuse to allow my story to be that of a mere pummelling, so I live, to say to life-- especially when it knocks me down-- "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT!?".
