What would your ideal life / existence be?

[iwantmycatback]

I want my BPD and anxiety and OCD gone. I think I'd have a chance at living a pretty peaceful life if not for these conditions overcomplicating everything I think and feel to be so unmanageably painful. That and my cat being brought back to life and living forever.

I want to be with someone whom loves me unconditionally, much like my last relationship. I just want someone to come with me to my endless thrifting adventures.

Other than that I wish I was a ripple/wave in water that is the lake I live near

To live in a little town with my ideal partner, work a job that doesn't kill my soul, that promotes my creativity and pays well, to be surrounded by nature, without the constant buzz and worries of the city...an idyllic life, that is.

Let's say i have as much money on my bank account that is enough until the day I die. I want a little house in the middle of a forest. With giant pastures all around me, but overall surrounded by forests. I want to own chickens, horses, cats and dogs and other animals. And I want a garden where i plant veggies, fruit trees and mushrooms and everything. I want to live totally alone, no human can enter as long as i am alive. I want a car so if something happens or the animals need a doctor, i can take them to the vet asap. Basically this...
Taking care of my animals, cooking for myself, gardening, laying in the grass and sleeping for 15 hours if i want to. Never ever working a traditional job again. No social media, zero interaction with humans. This is my dream

First thing I want is no anxiety. To be able to leave the house without having a panic attack would be heavenly. Also friends and owning a small/exotic animal rescue/shop. Of course a nice house in the middle of nowhere with animals in every room and with the sound of fighter jets flying over.
Maybe correct medication or something to keep my mental health stable.

My Idea of Life

In the life I imagine — the life that should be — everything is different from this broken world.

In that life, the things you create stay. You don't spend your life building only to watch it rot, rust, break, or be taken away. Every structure, every system, every idea is permanent — not eroded by time, decay, or neglect. Nothing is wasted. Nothing vanishes.

You truly own what is yours. Not in the fragile, legalistic sense we have now — where your body, your home, your time can all be taken from you. In this life, your space, your tools, your creations, and your self belong to you in a way no one can ever violate. No theft, no loss, no dependency. What is yours cannot be stripped away — not by law, by death, or by nature.

Resources are infinite and clean. There is no hunger, no fuel crisis, no running out. No competing, no hoarding, no fighting over scraps. You are not punished for existing. You are not born into debt to the Earth.

You have infinite computing power — not for entertainment or distraction, but for understanding. To simulate anything. To think clearly and without limit. To build, solve, design, heal, and explore the deepest levels of reality. Your mind is not throttled by biology or bound by confusion. You don't have to guess or stumble in the dark.

In this life, you are born with full awareness of how the machine works — the machine of your body, your mind, the systems you live in. No mystery diseases. No confusion about emotions. No false hopes. You know yourself and your environment like an engineer knows a circuit diagram — deeply, precisely, intimately. You don't have to suffer just to learn how to survive.

And maybe most importantly: nothing here can be forced on you. Not life. Not death. Not pain. You exist because you chose to, not because someone else thought you should. There is no trick, no birth you didn't ask for. No test you never agreed to take.

This is a life where your existence isn't a gamble, a punishment, or a trap. It's something you get to shape — with total agency, endless tools, and a world that doesn't fight you at every turn.

That's what life should have been.

I think it would be better not to be born into this world at all.
But if I were satisfied with my shell, I would try to live this life happily and with dignity

 

[starboy2k]

If I'm trapped in a world where I have to pay for food and necessities and shit, then Id rather just be non-existent lmaoooo

 

[Box]

really interesting question. I honestly just would like to have an average life. small apartment, normal job and just be left alone.

 

[LetMeOut67]

As I'm British and our weather is grim my ideal would be being rich enough to live in Florida or Los Angeles from October to April and then return to a seaside home on the south coast of England , Brighton preferably.

That is not pathetic in any way whatsoever. I totally get that. I've always been interested in medicine. If I wasn't actively planning for my death, I'd be looking at which schools to go to so I can become a nurse practitioner or really anything in the field now that I've graduated HS. Hospitals have been always fascinating to me. I experienced medical abuse once, but there was a nurse who was very empathetic and overly apologetic for the actions of someone else, even though I never even told anyone there about it. I'd love to be that kind of person. You can't always stop bad people from harming others, but you can be the person who provides help and love to people who need it. To heal them.

Sorry it's not pathetic at all.

It's pathetic because I don't think any doctor would ever be like this, I feel so down and worthless. I still want to so badly be one but I know that to be in that position, a doctor, requires that person to not be ill. I just can't imagine someone that successful failing this spectacularly at life.

I'd love to own some land and have a small farm with the love of my life. Very simple but peaceful.
