If you're gravely depressed but to much of a coward to commit suicide where does that leave u?

In fact death ELIMINATES the opportunity for life to improve.
Working under the assumption that it does, we all have different meanings of improve. Some of us aren't looking for money, women, travel, or worldly possessions. It runs contrary to what we are told, but it's the truth. That's all @DrX is saying: most of us just find distractions and pretend they matter.
Life is about the freedom to pursue what you enjoy.
Agree to disagree. There are always constraints. None of us are truly free. For one, the vast majority of people can best be described as wage slaves. That is their constraint. After that, they can travel, be consumerists, pursue pleasures of the world and so forth, but there is still a constraint.

Ive seen your responses in the past and know you are not going to seek professional help, but at least work on the following FREE self-help which will change your mindset:
a) exercise, even if a 30 min walk outside to start, preferably with a friend, and work up to trail running and being outdoors
b) practice meditation - it takes at least 6-9 months to get the hang of it but start with just 10 minutes a day and work up - here is a free source to learn -https://www.tarabrach.com/guided-meditations/
c) clean up your diet (get rid of the sugar and complex carbs), and take at least a multi-vitamin and supplement B-12 and D3 (if you are not outside for a period of sunlight)
d) and e) and most important - volunteer for something - food kitchen, tutoring, etc. to see that you should be grateful for what you have - each morning, list 3 things your are grateful for when you wake up - even if its just a roof over your head or that the sun it out
f) even though a cac, this is a free 5 min success lecture that comes every day m-f - just to motivate - listen and watch after your meditation DarrenDaily - Daily Mentoring for Achievers

Good luck

what are you looking for in life if it isnt worldly possessions? what makes you happy?
How much of the world have you truly seen?
How can you know you want to end your life when you can't possibly have experienced everything there is to experience in the world?

It sounds like saying you hate something or don't want something but you've never even experienced it

There has to be something that brings you happiness

one of my goals was to be provider, for people, children, a wife perhaps...I like giving, even tho the world has made me colder over the years from constantly giving only to be taken for granted. That's why I came to the conclusion, life is really about surviving and doing what ever it takes to achieve that. And the less morals u have, the more you'll gain

Nothing. And don't respond with the cliche "there has to be something." :stopitslime:
How much of the world have you truly seen?
Enough to know that I want no parts of it. There are plenty of nice places, no doubt.
How can you know you want to end your life when you can't possibly have experienced everything there is to experience in the world?
By being rational.

how much of the world have you seen tho breh? have you left the US?
there's an entire planet out there with billions of people
Just because buffalo isn't treating you right doesn't mean that Kaui won't.
How could you kill yourself without seeing the pyramids?
How could you kill yourself without sleeping with foreign women?




Death isn't the opportunity for freedom. In fact death ELIMINATES the opportunity for life to improve.
Life is about the freedom to pursue what you enjoy.
i cant....I dont have it in me too, but at the same time I really cant be optimistic....limbo
