You didn't explain that your suicidal thoughts were the culmination of multiple issues.

I figured that much would have been obvious.

And if you believe that such a quick end to suffering is rational, then why do you endure?

Siiiigh.

I've been asked this question a mind-numbing number of times.

First of all, a lot of people would be affected if I were to kill myself. I don't feel like giving my friends and family years of depression of their own. Secondly, there's still a lot for me to do in this life. I have many projects I'd like to finish, and messages to send. If I'm a slave during the slave trade, and I want to end slavery, I'm not going to succeed by killing myself. No, I'm going to attempt, in whatever ways I am able to, to make change so that future generations can live more comfortably (and peacefully cease to be once everyone hopefully becomes anti-natalist).

Because it's weird for a human not to want to be alive? I don't think that's weird at all. I think that's rational, mostly.

Yes, it is weird. It's unhealthy, unnatural. The natural state of mind for all life is survival at all costs. If you think about killing yourself and death as normal way to think, then...well it's pretty obvious that you're mentally unhealthy.

That is insane.

Did you know that I'm an anti-natalist? I believe that it is wrong to have children, and I don't view "survival" as a good enough reason to impose life on other sentient beings. I think we should all go extinct. I guess I have a huge mental problem.

"Unnatural" is a fallacy. I don't buy it for a second. Excrement is natural, murder is natural, rape is natural. None of these things are good or desirable. Neither is life.

"Unhealthy"? How? If someone doesn't like life, why can't they just not like life? Why does it mean that they are retarded or something?

so you'd rather self-diagnose and live under the impression that your depression isnt treatable? here's a reality check, kid: it's all in your head.

I don't want to be treated, kid. Here's a reality check: Life fucking sucks. I SHOULDN'T be complacent about it. I SHOULD be depressed all the time.

I'm pretty sure you interpreted what was being said wrong.

Regardless, I don't need his fucking makeshift quack-ass diagnosis. That is just so obnoxious.

"I'd get that sorted out,

"IF YOU DON'T WANNA BE A DRUGGIE LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, YOU MUST HAVE MENTAL PROBLEMS."

Kindly fuck off. I'm perfectly content with my straight-edge-ness. I may be depressed, but that sort of comes with the territory of being me. It's not exactly treatable.

I'm REALLY not worried about not being able to do drugs without wanting to kill myself. The solution is to not do drugs, because that's stupid as fuck. Problem solved.

Not to mention, I'd either have to use a vaporizer or put it in food or something. Because fuck actually breathing the smoke. Dumbest shit everrr.

1) thats conjectural 2) not even remotely close to true 3) your experience with marijuana varies depending on context. it depends on where you are, how you're feeling, your general attitude, who you're with, and what you're smoking.

So, it's NOT conjectural. At all.

>where you are
That really actually doesn't matter at all.

>how I'm feeling
Perpetual bad mood, about everything, all the time.

>my general attitude
If I'm about to smoke pot, I'm gonna have bad attitude about it.

>who I'm with
Doesn't matter. People who smoke pot are idiots. I hate being around idiots.

>what I'm smoking
I feel like this would be drowned out by all other factors.

So, considering that I WOULD have a bad attitude about it, I WOULD hate who I'm with, there is no way in hell I'd ever enjoy being high. It would probably make me murderous, if anything. Suicidal. Alcohol made me suicidal the first and only time I've ever been drunk, because I was so upset with myself that I did it in the first place.

Y'know, you can always put that it's your belief, that you feel strongly about instead of stating it as fact and implying that anyone who doesn't believe it is just deluding themselves as a coping method.

I'm absolutely certain about it, though. Throw me in hell to suffer in unmitigated agony for the rest of time if I happen to be wrong. That's how certain I am.

We don't think about death often because we're so busy in our lives

It actually tends to be the bulk of what I think about these days. I've considered writing stories about a guy who kills himself just to see what the other side is like, only to "discover" that it really is nothingness. If only that wasn't trite as fuck.

It's funny because I doubt Casper even gives a fuck.

If he didn't, he wouldn't care even if I was trying to instigate an argument back in the Star Wars thread. But he did.

And yes, I needed to mention them, because everything I say = trying to start an argument. ChallengerX's one-track mind.

Calling stupid people CUNTS 'n' shit.

Ranch looks like bird shit.

Why would anyone eat anything that looks like bird shit.

Please tell me you guys know baboons are omnivores. I can't be the only guy that watches animal documentaries here.

Stop trying to incite an argument.

Yes. Baboons are omnivores. Their diet is still chiefly vegetarian anyway.

My name is the largest. Right now, you're looking right through the hole in the "a" in my name. That's how big my name is. That's how big my a-hole is.

lol

You were demoted.
