Discussion if you got everything you wanted, would you stay?

[DeadManLiving]

Yes.

 

[Defenestration]

I should have killed myself in 2005, and I'm still here. Everything I've experienced since 2005 was pointless and not worth it. I hope I won't be here before 2027.

 

[Yakui]

well... yeah, what kinda question is that? the problem is that those things physically cannot be fixed in reality, but if they could, yeah no shit i wouldnt be suicidal lmao.

 

[turstehers]

Yes and my depression would also vanish overnight hehe. I "only" want a friend that stays a friend and that wants to talk to me and do stuff with me

 

[peacebenow]

It is impossible now but if miracles and magic then, yes.

 

[Feldsparc]

If I could go back a few years and undo my mental health breakdown then yes I would stay. Everything's been fucked since then

I feel this.

 

[Echo]

I feel this.

Sorry it sucks doesnt it. Fuck mental health

 

[hurts2b]

If being alive was the path of least resistance, yes, I would choose it.

 

[accountnamerequired]

A cure and unlimited money? Sure

 

[ravendrops]

I dunno. There's not much of me left. I already lost my primary functional identity (3 years ago I didn't know I was dissociated). Now I'm functioning as another but I just don't want to keep going. Piles of magic money I don't think would fix the wounds and gangrene.

 

[hello707]

It's difficult to admit but yes. I want to live. But the circumstances I am in don't allow that, so I have to die. Hopefully soon.

 

[nowhere123]

I'll choose to stay because all I want is a normal brother and a dad who loves us. Even if life is hard, it doesn't matter—that's all I want.

 

[TwistedNightmares]

I would attempt to stay, yes. But it probably won't take long for life to somehow retraumatize me again.

 

[JoeFailure]

If I had and could keep a good job, yeah I would stay

 

[bl33ding_heart]

Probably, but it's hard telling how long I'd stay.

 

[ZwartHartje]

If the murders of all my loved ones could be undone and they were alive, and people weren't hostile towards them (my loved ones were nutrias) and I wouldn't have to hide like a thief in the night to see them, if that whole nightmare of the past 4 years could be undone - sure, I'd want to stay for another while, at least as long as I could keep my body strong and athletic too.

 

[memento-mori]

i would

 

[Andrew10]

If this had been in previous years, that probably would have held me back a little, but I wouldn't change my decision, since sooner or later I'd get bored anyway.

And if it were right now, my answer is a resounding no, my interest in life in general has been completely sapped I hate the way human life works in general; this whole world bores me and simply existing becomes a more complicated task as time goes on. I have 0 desire to continue living and my only ambition is to stop functioning and find eternal peace.

That is my only goal and the only thing worth putting effort into, and it's something I intend to achieve no matter what .

 

[unloveable27]

if a loved one came back to life, if all the pain suddenly went away, if a certain situation just didn't happen, etc. would that be enough to keep you alive, or would your desire to die remain beneath it all?

this may be a dumb question to ask, but i've been thinking about it for a while. i'm curious about everyone's answers depending on their situations. does the meaning of reason run deeper than it seems? my perspective is pretty biased because of my own motive, so i'd like to learn if anyone is willing to share.

If I could get another girlfriend i would absolutely stay but it will never happen

 

[Bunabelldearest]

I wouldn't say it'd make me not want to die because atp that desire outweighs it all but it'd keep me around for a bit longer, just to have a small bit of happiness before I go through with it. Plus I think that if everything was perfect I'd find a way to fuck it up.

 

[that_miqo'te]

I mean my biggest motivation is being trans so I guess if I could just be a cis girl then maybe I would be fine

 

[never mind me]

Currently my main motivatin for ctb is an annoying sickness and fear of the future (not getting a job again, that allows me to live decently and not finding an appartment I can rent), so if these things were fixed I would certainly wish to stay alive. Actually I expect my health will improve eventually and afterwards I might be able to fix the job and housing situation, that's why I am still holding on.

 

[HFK40000]

The answer is yes. The only thing I want is to be with my ex. Honestly if she were to respond to my messages that might be enough.

 

[groovygoober]

If I could go back in time a few years and just fix the slump I fell into , then its a high possibility .

Who gets everything they wanted? The Serenity Prayer comes to mind. Of course if I get everything I wanted, I would want to live. but i'm not asking for much - the bare minimum really - to be able to SLEEP, and to feel financially secure as i go into old age. i can put up with severe ME/CFS and Long Covid.

perhaps you can now. :)

 

[AgnesTachyon]

no. the peace of non existence doesn't have price.​

 

[glassskin]

no. that's why i'm here goddamn it. i have everything i want. i just can't feel any connection, purpose, meaning or reason to be here or do anything. i've travelled the world, achieved career success, all the normie shit. i felt and still feel absolutely nothing. everything is so meaningless and no one understands how that feels. antidepressants don't do shit. i'm just biologically broken.

 

[pthnrdnojvsc]

no. I would never want to stay in this hell

I hate this evil world evil life and the evil pleasure addictions

it's these nightmares that cased the worst things to happen to me

why would I suddenly embrace my torturers?

Well if every bad thing would turn good, I would at least try it. But that won't happen.

i think 100% i would stay but i would eventually return to suicide again. i lost my grandma in 2023 and would love to see her again. i would love to be in a relationship again, i think im nothing if im not a lover girl and i wish i was able to love someone.
