It seems as though we exist only to suffer.

[FuneralCry]

To me, it seems as though life is only suffering, humans experience so much pain for decades and then they eventually die. I see no point to living overall, we exist only for the sake of existing, life is just a pointless experience that we go through for the sake of it. Our lives do not matter at all, eventually we will all die and be forgotten about and all our problems will die with us. Our only true purpose is to die, life is just made up of meaningless distractions, we are just passing the time until we eventually die. To me, it therefore does not make much sense why people are expected to suffer for decades against our wishes, why force people to live when life is so pointless after all. Euthanasia should be legalised everywhere and people should be able to exit peacefully at a time of their own choosing. For me personally, there is nothing positive about staying alive and dying would prevent all future suffering. In non existence, nothing can hurt us. Life is completely unnecessary, I was perfectly fine not existing until I was forced to live. I simply prefer the sound of a permanent sleep to any kind of life, living can be very tiring and stressful and to me there is simply no point. I look forward to the day I can finally return to nothingness.

I totally agree and pro lifers just like the the anti abortion ones, don't care at all about living people. They offer nothing in terms of adding to someone's quality of life. The strangers just want people to live for weird religious reasons and people close to you just want you to live so they won't feel sad. It is very disingenuous.

It's not true, suffering is definitely a part of life, so is happiness and unadulterated joy and love. My ex was a ray of sunshine and while we didn't work out we had years of good happy times resulting in my little angel of a boy. It would trade nothing away for those moments, not even the pain I am in now in exchange. Life is our to mould or shape or exist in. If you want something in life it's up to you to get it for yourself, money, love and happiness etc. Same as death, of death is what you want you must throw every part of you at it, failure is a blimp so long as you get up and keep going it's not a failure. Find what you want mate, money, love or death or anything else and poor yourself into it.

Just my to cents.

What do you mean you were perfectly fine not existing ?

What do you mean you were perfectly fine not existing ?

I mean that how before I was born, I was perfectly fine not existing as I was unable to experience anything at all. I simply did not exist. Life is very unnecessary, as if I never existed it would mean that I would have never suffered.

do you find it hard to commit suicide?

do you find it hard to commit suicide?

For me personally, suicide is very difficult. The fear of failure is what holds me back. I have not properly attempted though. To me, there is nothing easy about leaving this world, if it was I would already be gone.

I totally relate. My death is 5 years overdue. This is honestly mortifying everytime I think about it.

what would be your method of choice?

When I get desperate, it will have to be hanging as drowning sounds too horrible. Hanging is the most accessible way for me to leave this world.

Ohh alright...i understand now...
I see a lot of your posts here on almost every thread...you seem to be a caring and loving person trapped in this gloomy chaos we call world ..

The term ' i ' applies to.NOW.. We cannot identify ourselves before we arrived or how we will respond after we DIE .

It really feels like a program set up to produce torment. Maybe not exclusively torment, but that seems to be the prevailing theme. When people tell me that they don't feel much suffering, and to them life is a blessing and they look forward to each and every day, I'm struck with bewilderment.


How can their experience of life be so violently different from mine? We're living on the same rock, yet I'm in hell and they're telling me they're in heaven...what on earth? It's an added insult to this terrible existence, having to listen to others expressing the joys of life. Like a nobleman telling a pauper about the delights of home comforts.
