Suicide
August 9, 2015 at 12:08 am
I'm not going to Hell because there isn't one. I feel the world has become such a mess that it's not worth living in anymore. I don't see a purpose. I've alienated my family and friends. Perhaps they'd all be better off with me gone. They certainly won't be worse off.

Jesus, another one?!?!

It is excruciating to see people not able to garner even the least bit of joy in life.

Shinagami, please, please, please, talk to someone. If you want to PM me, even if it's just to unload, I am available.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

How can I when I read every single day about looming disaster? I've tried to do what I can but it's no use.

Then stop trying and stop whining that you do not have the guts to do it.

On my birthday in 2007, I was on the verge of taking my own life. After 4 hours of considering, I aborted it, because there was too much danger of survving an attempt, and thus winding up disabled in a way I could never prepare for. Think about that. And talk with someone.

What looming disaster?

But, really, realize that the 'news' is just another form of entertainment designed to push advertising down your throat. Sensationalistic bullshit sells. Also, look up Mean World Syndrome (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_world_syndrome).

My reference to "stop trying" means in your mind that you should do it?
