I think everybody has at least thought about it. I thought about it and realized it is the single most retarded thing one can possibly do. Life isn't something that should be idly thrown away.

I would do it if I ever really felt like it, and I may one day; but not today, so I'm not going to worry about it. :mushroom2:

I've considered it a few times.

Why you ask? Well, I was depressed. I got no real enjoyment out of anything, had no real friends, fought with my parents a fair amount, and generally felt very lonely and lacking in love. I became very existential during this time period, and dipped into nihilism. I concluded that ultimately nothing matters, so why bother with anything?

So why didn't I? I don't know really. A feeling of curiousity, a sense that things were bound to improve; hope. And then later on a whole variety pack of pharmaceuticals.

I think it was Camus who said the ultimate philosophical question is whether or not one should commit suicide. If all life is for you is suffering and there is not even a glimmer of hope or a chance that things could ever improve, then hell, go for it. Why suffer? Or you could try to find out why you're suffering so much and deal with the root cause. Or you could say a big "fuck you" to society and go live on your own, how you like.

Once I hit the bottom of the well, philosophically, I thought about it all the time. It's dark down there. Cold, lonely, and miserable. I was facsinated with nothingness and it's ultimate expression, death.

But now, I light my farts on fire to create some light and converse with the brick walls. :sun:

"There is but one truly serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest — whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories — comes afterward. These are games; one must first answer." -- Albert Camus

I like how this is stated.

I've thought about suicide alot in the past and still think about death every day. I don't think I could ever kill myself though, because I always feel (in times of depression) that changes and hope may be around the next turn. I don't think I could kill my consciousness because there are so many experiences and adventures I think I'd miss out on.

I think that if somebody's life is comprised of suffering without hope then they should be able to kill themselves and nobody should judge them as selfish or whatever else. Isn't it selfish to wish somebody to stick around even though they are in constant pain and would rather leave?

If i ever did kill myself I would write a lengthy note explaining why I did what I did. I'd also write letters to everybody in my life that deserves to know why I did it thanking them for their presence in my life, including some fond memmories and letting them know they should not be sad or angry with me for leaving, just accepting that I didn't want to stay.

I would probably slit my wrists while under the influence of an opiate and wait out the inevitable in the bathtub, leaving as little mess as possible and preserving my appearance for a funeral that my parents would no doubt have for me. A letter addressed to the police station would be mailed out the day before explaining the situation and location of the suicide and giving proper identification and next of kin contact information so nobody close to me would have to find my dead, bloody body in the bathroom.

Have a cheery day.

I feel that if you have no value for your own life, why not use it to help others. Become a marine, feed the homeless, get involved in a jihad(just kidding :smile: or am I? lol), Do something creative with your now worthless life. And if you DO decide to do it, do it in a creative spot, like the front yard of the Whitehouse, wearing a sign saying how you feel about the Bush admin,lol.

yes, twice, very close, long time ago.
I realized, it is better to do something against that what causes depression, even up to death, than to surrender and don't be able to influence anything after. Death will catch you anyways, so make it worth something !

I don't think there would be motivation to love others and their lives if you don't love yourself or your life.
