I wonder if there's been a significant increase in the number of people who think about killing themselves at least once a week. Once a day even. I mean how could you not?

This is like finding a lump on your breast/testicle.

Don't fuck around with that. See a specialist who knows what to do.

Eh, I've thought about killing myself pretty much every day since I was in grade school. I'm not worried about it. Worst case scenario is that I actually do it and my problems are over with at that point.

Worst case scenario is that you form a family and then one day reveal to your children that all of the adult stuff you're dealing with is too much and you plan to dump the two inheritance cases on them that you have been putting off dealing with until the government started getting pissed, on top of obviously the third case that is you, because those thoughts have only gotten more haunting as you age and the weight of adulthood responsibilities increases.

On the other hand, the bad conscience will end with death too, so maybe it doesn't matter if you fuck anyone over with it.

I don't have kids and have no intention to do so.

Well, that's one relief then. I still think you should take it more seriously, but also, I absolutely understand your line of reasoning. I wish you didn't have to deal with that, and I hope you do find some healthy way out of it.

Uhh by having good mental health I guess because I sure as shit don’t think about offing myself on the regular.

funny enough, people have stopped trying to convince me because gestures broadly got enough reasons right

More like a significant increase in the number of people who at least once a week think about killing T***p.
