Is it just me or has half the board been having suicidal thoughts?


RE: the poop happens world we live in thread 2XXX - PatientZero - 10-23-2012

Well it's about that time again, not to make light of it but October through to the new year is always a spike in people getting depressed and moody, there's actually some medical reasons behind it but I won't clog up the thread with it.

I learned a long time ago that suicide isn't an option, in almost all cases it's a mistake or a logical error, let me explain.
I'm going on the assumption that there is no afterlife, if that doesn't gel with your world view then I shouldn't have to explain anything because even if there is a heaven or hell, the bible is pretty clear on suicide being a one way ticket to the devils door.

Let's go with the purely physical side of things first, your brain and body at the most basic level are designed to try not to die, you would be amazed at exactly what you can survive.
You can do enough damage to completely ruin whatever life you might have had, which sadly happens a lot, but doing enough damage to yourself to actually die isn't nearly as easy as you might imagine.

From a logical perspective it's much simpler, everything is temporary, and I do mean everything, whatever you're feeling right now literally can't last forever.
Even in the ultimate worst case scenario you'll eventually die anyway.
The only reason to cut that timescale down yourself is if your current suffering, right this moment, outweighs any happiness you have or future happiness you might achieve.

Again, this is almost never true except in the most extreme cases, if you're going to die in the most blindingly agonising way possible in the next hour, I recommend you shoot yourself in the head right now, but on the other hand that girl you like might ask you out tomorrow, and women tend to be less attracted to you when you're dead.

The better option if you're genuinely considering ending it all is to think about why, work out what is causing you so much unhappiness and try to fix it, odds are the effort to change things isn't nearly as bad as the unhappiness it's causing you to not change it.
Besides, if you're planning on committing suicide anyway you have literally nothing to lose even if you fail completely, so why not keep trying?

I walked along it for a few months once.

I once ate a shit load of pills to try and OD. Stupidest thing I've ever done. I have so much in my life right now, I can't imagine wanting to die. If past me saw me saw present me, I wouldn't even think twice about committing suicide, not to mention all the great experiences I've had between then and now.

Moral of the story is things ALWAYS get better, and if you feel rock bottom right now, the only place to go is up. So cheer up. :>

So this past weekend was soo sick I didn't leave my bed for a couple days, Luckily I got up for some water(Alot) after the second day.
I barely ate anything at all during that time since it'd induce vomiting.

It also seems since I was sick on friday, I go and find out that my History Techer that despises me gave everyone in my class donuts and they pretty much sat there and colored that class. It honestly didn't bother me sincedonuts are starting to get boring since they don't have as many interestingly-flavored donuts in my area.

Once you start having to pay bills the idea of being depressed when you was young suddenly becomes incredibly foolish...

My laptop is lagging like crap, like even typing is lagging. And yes ebay woman, once you agree to a refund and I post the item back IT IS too late to change your mind... Case opened, give me my smegging refund...

Oops, I just almost had a mental breakdown over stress because everytime I send my license to the insurance company it has been too dark for them to make out any of the proper details.

haha great, fun, luckily I don't have to work for way too long tonight.

Hey sister, can you just stop complaining about me being annoyed? Because guess what, it makes me even more annoyed. Which causes me to annoy you. Because I'm so annoyed.

Now we're all annoyed. Great.

EDIT:

Wow I just really needed to tell all that to someone. Even if nobody reads it.

I love this thread.


RE: the poop happens world we live in thread 2XXX - Rai - 10-24-2012

Wow, Dad. It's awful nice of you to keep trying to shove a job for a meat-packing plant up my ass even though I'm genuinely excited about a job I'll enjoy. God fucking forbid you could be happy for me. Dick.

Thanked because my bio dad still to this day thinks I want to be in Network Marketing even though I clearly don't want to be.


RE: the poop happens world we live in thread 2XXX - Vipershark - 10-25-2012

what exactly is network marketing
sounds like a pyramid scheme to me


RE: the poop happens world we live in thread 2XXX - Gwen - 10-25-2012

That's exactly what it is, but he refuses to believe that.


RE: the poop happens world we live in thread 2XXX - Rai - 10-25-2012

HAHA OH WOW. First thing he tells me after I let him know I actually got the job is to pay him rent once I start getting checks in. And he seriously wonders why I think he and I will end up coming to blows if we live in the same house?

Jesus Christ, people are stupid.
