Why the instinct to survive?
#9
RE: Why the instinct to survive?
But WHY?! What is so fucking great about surviving anyways?! If you are human being who cultivates a good life for themselves then you would probably never ask the question... but what about those who don't? Or all other animals? I'm just gonna try really hard to survive, even though I don't know why...........

Good for you, I am really glad you are able to walk through life and never question why... I would seriously love to not have to constantly ask that question... must be nice.

There are a lot of individuals out there who struggle with this very question. Look outside yourself for a moment?

Hold on just a second. Are you saying in a very complicated way, you're contemplating suicide?

I work with individuals who have severe mental health issues. It's a question I am asked constantly.
