I'd probably pause, but I wouldn't chicken out. I do sometimes think about all the stuff I'll miss out on, but it's about pros and cons; is it worth living in constant emotional pain and fighting these urges every day for the rest of my life just so I can go to more gigs or play video games with my brother? It's gonna suck to miss out on stuff, but I've suffered long enough.
You're singing my tune. It's very strange how this mental ailment effects me. It sounds like it might to you, too.
Mostly down days but periods of happiness or more like contentment. Those are usually when I'm thinking about CTB.
God, it's such a strange comfort. I can console and advise friends like Tony Fuckin' Robbins while thinking about offing myself. And I honestly believe the advice will work to improve their situations.
Yeah, I can't advise either way on this decision. Just please make sure you're ready. I totally understand the mental gymnastics and exhaustion that entails. But that effort is worth every moment in the darkness. I've committed myself to not doing this impulsively. I want to drink it like Socrates and his hemlock cocktail. Cool as a cucumber. That's a tall order for anyone who has loved ones.
It's such a difficult subject, but at least here, there's no judgement or condemnation for carrying such thoughts. For that, I'm grateful and I wish you peace with your decision.
I know it breaks the rules but you're welcome to PM to vent.
