Genuine Reason not to Kill Yourself?

[SCHOPENHAUERBITCH]

The only reasons I've ever heard were either non-suicidal people who couldn't possibly fathom why life wouldn't be worth living and suicidal people saying they were just scared or guilty or had survival instinct.
I've never come across a single genuine reason that makes logical sense. If anyone has anything that resembles a good reason to live, please share.

I have a few reasons. The first being that I need to outlive my overt narcissist mother and piece of shit father because if I don't, they will definitely tell everyone how great of parents they were, how they tried to help me and make it all about themselves when they've done nothing but make my life absolute hell with their abuse.
Second, I promised my best friend we go together after my parents die, either by exit bag or going to Switzerland. I'm good with finances so I'm really hoping for Switzerland.
Third, my 14 year old cat. That is my soul baby, and I dare not go before he does. He doesn't deserve that.
Fourth, I'd like to go back to college this year to become a respiratory therapist, and then transition into polysomnographic technologist. Working three days a week, making between $40 - $60/hr is the goal for my physical health conditions and I'd say mental health as well. Plus, that will easily pay for mine and his expense to Switzerland when the time is ready, and I can say I did better than anyone else in my family ever has.

One of my psychologists said that the problem with suicide is that it comes from a very dark place. So it's not something you genuinely want, it's the end result of total desperation.

I have my problems with this cause I'd ask is there an amount of suffering that would make it warranted? I'd think so.
I myself also sometimes felt like it's not even coming from a dark place anymore. It was more like 'I just had enough'..

But fuck it, hang in there.

No, for me there could never be anything that would make me want to prolong the suffering and torture of this terrible, dreadful and torturous existence that I just always saw as a mistake, I find it horrific how the torture of existing can continue for decades longer with no limit as to how much one can be tortured just for them to face the terrible extreme agony of old age, to suffer in this existence is just always an abomination to me.

I'll always see existence as a mistake that just causes harm and suffering torturing existing beings, no matter what humans should never impose this existence and it's so terrible how they do, all that existence ever does is just cause all this dreadful, unnecessary suffering and torture, for me non-existence is all that's positive. For me ceasing to exist would be the positive solution so finally I can be at peace from this existence so dreadful and torturous, to me existing is so deeply undesirable in every way, simply just being conscious in this existence is enough to make me wish for the peace of dreamless eternal sleep where finally all is gone.

Life is fun for most people. Everyone has their ups and downs. Some people cry over it, some tough it out, some go down the depression rabbithole.

being able to do things you love or finding new things you didn't know you would enjoy. i can still enjoy my hobbies even if it feels like torture to make myself do something besides lay in bed.

Life is precious. In the whole known universe, we are the only ones that exist.I can recognize although I'm unhappy, life is still something unique and precious.I don't refute it. That being said, I still want mine over with sooner rather than later.

But I will try my best till then and I would prefer my end to come naturally instead of ending it myself prematurely.

Because despite life being suffering as a whole, I really like playing video games. And petting cats. And if I were to ctb right now, that means that I can't play video games or pet cats anymore, which would not be catastrophic, but the thought makes me put it off for a bit longer.
