Living with suicidal ideation sucks. On one day, i will drown myself in all my past failures and lose hope, contemplating about how Ill end it. The next day, im feeling solace, finding comfort in feeling down and convincing myself i will face these problems eventually, overall feeling like myself. It’s like im half dead, constantly shifting between seeing my future self, and seeing nothing. This vid is nice, i feel it depicts my current struggle pretty well. Sometimes you see the possibility of death, and other times, you see a happier future. I pray it will get better, for the both of us.

something about these small animations i find on yt.... compared to the studio-made, adhd brainrotting anime that gets on my feed 'despite' the little numbers of frames for these animated loops, they always sink a feeling and message in my head and it always hits deep in a way that makes me pause, stop and just take in everything it doesn't have to be perfect, or fast, or complex, or dynamic as long as the message comes through and it inspires me more than anything else so one day I'll make animations of my own thank you for that
Randomly got this in my feed and I've never seen your channel before and I don't know what you're going through, but I hope that you're doing okay and I'm proud of you for simply being alive. Keep it up. You're worth it :)
Thank you for making this, its nice to know that other people all across the world are fighting the same battles you are. It might be selfish but i think knowing that other people are going the same type of bullshit you are is comforting
Back in 2022, after I finally got out of a pretty abusive relationship, I wrote a poem for myself called “Still Alive.” This video resonated with me, thank you for that.
The noose looks like an upside down balloon- and honestly my life has been like this a lot- there seems to be no end to this drifting off into thoughts of *that*
I know all this sounds cheesy, but I say this in all seriousness. In life, you only miss something after its gone. This stays true forever. As a child, you cry when you lose your favorite toy. Maybe you weren't careful enough, probably misplaced it. As a teenager, you cry when you lose your pet. You just wish you had more time with them. As an adult, you cry when there are heartbreaks. Maybe you shouldn't have yelled at her so much. After all of this, you learn your lesson. Next time you keep your toy with you at all times. Next time you spend more time with your new pet. Next time you make sure to be loving. But the one thing that there is no next time? Don't throw it away. Like losing other things, you never notice the true value in being alive until you are not; live your life as if you have lost it before. I have never been through experiences like this, not even close. I am very happy with my life as it is. However, watching this video has made me feel a mix of emotions I don't feel often-the emotion of losing something, and, even more, getting it back. I am not, and have never been, an emotional person, but this simple animation got me really close to crying. Even though the people depicted isn't me. I'm holding back tears to a mix of happy and sad; happy that the life has been kept, sad as if I am really gone. Actually, I'm not sure. It's really hard to explain. But to whoever that tries to leave but failed, you have experienced the greatest miracle possible. You have gone through something that changes you, something only the luckiest goes through. This video has helped me understand that. I am so glad that the people watching this video are mature enough to take this seriously. To whoever is going through things, the lesson here to take is that your life is no different from any other thing. Don't throw it away just because it isn't as good as you would like it to be. Stay safe and stay alive. To the original creator, I have never seen your channel before, and I am most likely not going to watch your other content [not because you're bad, just that I'm not interested in that type of content :)], but you deserve a sub from this. If you are going through things as well, stay strong, don't give up. You only have one life to throw away, and it's easy to do so because of how we've never lost it before. I know this comment is especially cringe for this generation, and I would probably be made fun of especially if someone I know reads this. This is not a funny topic. I would say much, MUCH more, but it is getting late for me, and tomorrow is a school day. Stay safe, stay strong, appreciate life like you have lost it before. Thank you so much for reading.
This reminds me of what it feels like when you have no ambitions or goals in life and dont want to live but at the same time you dont want to kill yourself so you just go through life completely detached from reality with the mentality of "im not gonna kill myself, but if i died i wouldnt be sad"

I'll never forget the times I had no bed to carry me but the soft grass held me and the times I had no one to speak to and no one to hear my cries but the birds sung so beautifully to my sobs.
i thought this too - the whole vibe, aesthetic, and even the music made me think Omori. :) But definitely with the artist's own spin on it. It definitely got me.
the camera sway, monocrome colours, and uncanny stature of a person, are exactly what my nightmares look like. i love this video, thanks for making it, its actually super inspiring
This hits hard. Its been almost 3 years since Ive attempted. And Im around 5 months clean of SH. Its strange because usually that means something to people, like its evidence that Im not in that place anymore. But for me, it only takes one action to be back in that same place. Sometimes I feel like I still am, its just hard for people to notice. Im glad youre all still alive and that youve made it this far. It took a lot of courage and Im sorry youve suffered. Beautiful video! Great art
I don't know who you are (was just recommended this this morning) or what you're going through, but I hope in all honesty that you're doing well, and if not, at least doing better than you did yesterday. Currently going through a similar shitty mental health period myself, so I'm aware of how hard it can be. Even though I'm surrounded by more people that care about me that I've even been in my life, I've never felt nearly as alone as I feel. Even with the success of school and the knowledge of what I'm capable of, I still feel like I'm a sham and going to fail at any moment, disappointing the ones I care about. Even though I know people enjoy my company and my ability to make them smile, I'm terrified that one day I'll say/do the wrong thing and they'll leave me. I don't want to give in to the urges, no matter how tempting they might seem from the shadows. I don't know how things will turn out, but I've made it this far and I don't want it all to be in vain. I'm going to keep trying. Hopefully, it'll all be worth it in the end.
It’s hard. It does seem like a siren call when the stress and pain of everyday life outstrip our ability to cope. I have tried 4 times to slip the surly bonds of life and each time I was brought back from the brink. It’s just hard, life is hard but friends can make all the difference.
For those who know what this comment is a reference to, you have been through one of the saddest games in recent memory, but in doing so you also played through peak, and grew as a person in the process. Please, have a good day, fellow Omori enjoyers 🥲
I saw the noose and just got overwhelmed with emotion. I just stopped thinking for a moment. I had those thoughts since i was 12 and attempted at least 6 times. Im 23 now and i haven't wanted to disappear in 2 years. Thank you for the art, i will keep living.
@@dadogdoin1360Oh no! TH-cam hadn’t given me any notifications since your first reply! I am still here, I am well enough, each day. I hope you are well too. Thank you for asking.

I’m a little late to the party, but I really loved this. It’s quiet but hopeful, reflective. Almost two years ago I attempted to overdose and take myself away from it all. I thought about it again multiple times after that. But I’m still here. I’m happy I’m still here
had my first suicidal thought when i was 11. i'm almost 20 and they haunt me since that very day. several failed attempts, years of sh (which i'm very proud to say i'm more than a year clean), depression hitting every so often, loneliness, unhealed trauma. the weight of being alive is sometimes unbearable, yet i'm still here. still here, still breathing, still feeling, still alive. i can't give up now.
It hurts me terribly to see others feel the same as I had to go through. Now I'm in remission, but terrible thoughts continue to haunt me sometimes. please know that the future is salvation, everyone has it
Rather than a noose I saw it as the pull cord for a light. The shadows are full of kinder things than your eyes allow you to see. All you gotta do is pull the cord...
The dissonance between the sweet and simple guitar melody with the crass, crude, and chaotic harmony is such a cool narrative tool. The former representing the simplicity of life, being able to be happy even when just observing a balloon, like a child. The latter representing the rush of adulthood and having to constantly cater to so many needs, wants, asks, etc. However having to choose between those two is a more difficult and futile task compared to just letting it play out
i rewatched this video today and i nearly cried because it depict what i felt for yet so many days last month i hope i'll get throught it, i hope everyone you is going throught a harsh time does
idk if this is intentional or not but I really love how much Omori vibes this gives off (pro tip: if you have not played Omori, play it, you'll see what I mean)
don't forget to take care of yourselves! even if you can't do it on your own, as long as you have people you can trust, you'll pull through no matter how rough things get
Every person is unique. Trillions of people existed each with genetics specific to you, life experiences specific to you, and if you want to get spiritual a, unique spirit. Only you can bring what you have to this life and only you can touch people the way you do. Each person has significance. Yet again if you want to get spiritual; a child of a loving Father in Heaven who loves and cares about each of his children no matter what.
Boxing, work, reading, listening to music, writing, sleeping, watching TH-cam/media or shows, talking to my only 2 true friends, it’s the only way to escape the pain sometimes, I don’t want to go back to the void again, I refuse to me. I hope you all are doing alright, you as well OP.
This was recommended to me and I'm stunned by the way this was made. I interpret this throughout my experience, I was ok, then realized what reality really is, after that I almost committed suicide, lost all my wanting of living, finally dealing with all these things and trying to live a fake happy life for the ones that tried to help me (of course, this is my literal interpretation of the video and obviously it is not that literal, but IDK)
Uuh sorry for ruining the vibe here (if there even is one), just thought this was a cool Portal animation or something with the song from y'know, Portal, with the name with the vid (Still alive, or it's not still alive and I just confused myself cuz I'm a schizophrenic mf) anyways cool animation Ig probably gonna check out the channel, or I'm just gonna start dancing right now cuz I'm listening to a pretty epic and awesome and cool song uuh yeah awesome cool uh Alright I seriously gotta question what am I typing on TH-cam comments cuz like I thought of doing(?) a whole bit where I say that I'm a schizophrenic person so I'm gonna just start dancing alone in here because of the song... Like it's not even funny but ok I'm just gonna like. Leave. Nobody's gonna see this comment anyway (clearly bad sarcasm) ok bye I'm bored cool animation yeah probably already said that
"This was a triumph, I'm making a note here, huge success. It's hard to overstate my satisfaction." - GLaDOS from the first portal game I dunno, this quote just resurfaced in my brain just now. Anyway, keep living. It can be so much more fun than non-living.
I just wanna say. I recently found your channel and I think you are a very underrated gem on this site. I hope you can get the recognition you deserve, you earned a new sub. We all admire your work and this in particular is something that touched me in a really emotional way.
seeing this has inspired me to write of my own struggles. noticing that this was posted on my birthday leads me to say that something like this means a lot to me.
This’s very impressive: I love how you did so much with just a few simple shots and expressions! This video reminds me of Omori, since it has a monochrome style, the girl looks similar to Spirit Mari, and it has the White Egret Orchid(or a similar looking flower) at the start, which’s used quite a lot in Omori.
I bed rotted for the first time in a long while. I would do anything in order to distract myself of being sad. This really spoke to me about how I used to feel or just my old self in general. Processing the idea that I didn’t think I wouldn’t live this long. I’m happy now but yet when bed rotting today makes me go back to that feeling.
Y’know, despite everything, no matter how tough it was for you, you still pulled through, and now you’re here, reading this comment, hi there, glad you can make it! Or if you’re a returning regular, welcome back, to everyone who’s reading this comment, life is hard.. it’s tough sometimes, and at times annoying, but the fact you’ve made it this far, is proof that you’re strong enough, keep going! You’re almost there! I know these words are empty coming from a stranger, but still, know that your efforts have been recognised! ^^
about 2 years ago someone said to me "Dont try to die if you never even tried to live" at first i didnt understand it but about a week later i realized what she wanted to say, since then live got more and more enjoyable. I will never forget what she did for me :)
I made it through so much and ill make it through so much more! I might not be able to save the world but i can still make a differance if i just keep trying!
People, no matter how bad things get, remember that there is always hope. You always deserve happiness. You can get out of a suicidal state. I believe in you. Please remember this
I remember the discomfort of having those thoughts appear for the first time. I was just on a walk and suddenly each car passing by me on the road was an opportunity. I'm glad to be far out of that pit of despair now. Whoever's reading this, I wish you the best on your journey. You being here makes the world a brighter place
Suicide. What I would define it as? An urge the brain gives when stressed for long amounts of time. Results in death if successful. Brain resorts to negative feedback if failed in hopes of second attempt. "Disgrace. Humiliation." A way to describe this negative feedback. When the brain resorts to this urge, the stress may go away until the attempt. "A star shines its brightest right before death". The victim may resort to sharing feelings they've never shared with close ones, giving away important things, and just being more active overall. Suggestions? Well, there's a lot to think about. Getting help, thinking about what punishment an afterlife might bring you, the effects close ones will receive once given the news, etc. Let's talk about each one separately. *1. Getting help.* The simplest, easier-said-than-done thing to think about. You can resort to a lot of things when it comes to "help". The hardest one might be; telling your close ones and telling them you want help, you want support and telling them your struggles. This might be really hard to pull off, because it puts a lot of pressure on the person. But this is the most effective way, as the support is from loved ones you know are there for you and for nobody else. Then comes suicide hotlines. These are not _the_ best, since they go through suicidal people calling them every single day, but it can work. *2. Thinking about afterlife punishment* The afterlife. A big question with no real good answers. Let's see the ones i can remember. From what I know, suicide isn't treated well when it comes to afterlives. Most afterlives treat suicide as something the "superior being" didn't plan for you and is a sin. Thus, you will be sent into punishment. "Hell", if you will. Afterlives like nothingness aren't that big of a threat. Reincarnation? Well, that makes suicide just, wanting to "change character", if you wanna see it that way. It kinda makes suicide positive maybe? But this doesn't mean you should do it. Life has more prepared for you, but people are there for you. Remember point N°1. "Dante's Inferno" is a take on hell that theorizes on hell having layers, each layer hosting different punishment for different things. At the very last layer lies Satan. Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath, Heresy, Violence, Fraud and Treachery. Violence. Violence is a layer that focuses on, well, acts of violence. War, murder... This includes suicide. People who commit suicide are transformed into humanoid-like trees, unable to move, or do anything, but feel touch. Normally, sinners just roam hell, but people that commit suicide are FORCED into a life without any feeling but touch. They are compiled into the "suicide forest". So yeah, it's pretty harsh knowing whatever afterlife there is where you can actually feel stuff will punish you for ending life too early. *3. The effects on those that surround you.* Knowing someone you've known has committed suicide is a really heavy feeling, and will give THEM guilt and shame for not being able to recognize your intentions and not being able to stop you. This can lead into a chain reaction of depression and suicide. Thank you for reading. If you have failed an attempt at suicide, you should try point N°1. Talk to close ones. Tell them you've been feeling shitty and need to do something about it. Think with them on what could bring back your happiness. Always remember to look forward on a future where no one has to suffer through these horrors. If life keeps throwing shit at you, again. Point N°1. *YOU ARE UNIQUE. PRECIOUS. NEVER LET YOUR THOUGHTS TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU.* take care. love ya ❤

something about these small animations i find on yt....
compared to the studio-made, adhd brainrotting anime that gets on my feed
'despite' the little numbers of frames for these animated loops, they always sink a feeling and message in my head and it always hits deep in a way that makes me pause, stop and just take in everything
it doesn't have to be perfect, or fast, or complex, or dynamic
as long as the message comes through
and it inspires me more than anything else so one day I'll make animations of my own
thank you for that
(Sorry the video I posted was the wrong one ! T T)
It’s okay!
This is really good tho
its Duolingo:00
The character design is actually really cute holy shit. Very calming 10/10
Randomly got this in my feed and I've never seen your channel before and I don't know what you're going through, but I hope that you're doing okay and I'm proud of you for simply being alive. Keep it up. You're worth it :)

Back in 2022, after I finally got out of a pretty abusive relationship, I wrote a poem for myself called “Still Alive.” This video resonated with me, thank you for that.
playing portal would resonate as well
The noose looks like an upside down balloon- and honestly my life has been like this a lot- there seems to be no end to this drifting off into thoughts of *that*
I know all this sounds cheesy, but I say this in all seriousness.
In life, you only miss something after its gone. This stays true forever.
As a child, you cry when you lose your favorite toy. Maybe you weren't careful enough, probably misplaced it.
As a teenager, you cry when you lose your pet. You just wish you had more time with them.
As an adult, you cry when there are heartbreaks. Maybe you shouldn't have yelled at her so much.
After all of this, you learn your lesson.
Next time you keep your toy with you at all times.
Next time you spend more time with your new pet.
Next time you make sure to be loving.
But the one thing that there is no next time?
Don't throw it away.
Like losing other things, you never notice the true value in being alive until you are not; live your life as if you have lost it before.
I have never been through experiences like this, not even close. I am very happy with my life as it is. However, watching this video has made me feel a mix of emotions I don't feel often-the emotion of losing something, and, even more, getting it back. I am not, and have never been, an emotional person, but this simple animation got me really close to crying. Even though the people depicted isn't me. I'm holding back tears to a mix of happy and sad; happy that the life has been kept, sad as if I am really gone. Actually, I'm not sure. It's really hard to explain. But to whoever that tries to leave but failed, you have experienced the greatest miracle possible. You have gone through something that changes you, something only the luckiest goes through. This video has helped me understand that.
I am so glad that the people watching this video are mature enough to take this seriously. To whoever is going through things, the lesson here to take is that your life is no different from any other thing. Don't throw it away just because it isn't as good as you would like it to be. Stay safe and stay alive.
To the original creator, I have never seen your channel before, and I am most likely not going to watch your other content [not because you're bad, just that I'm not interested in that type of content :)], but you deserve a sub from this. If you are going through things as well, stay strong, don't give up. You only have one life to throw away, and it's easy to do so because of how we've never lost it before.
I know this comment is especially cringe for this generation, and I would probably be made fun of especially if someone I know reads this. This is not a funny topic.
I would say much, MUCH more, but it is getting late for me, and tomorrow is a school day.
Stay safe, stay strong, appreciate life like you have lost it before.
Thank you so much for reading.
I don’t have anything to add or to say, but I have this: 🤍
holy shit i aint writing this shit in college, not evrn in yt comments
This reminds me of what it feels like when you have no ambitions or goals in life and dont want to live but at the same time you dont want to kill yourself so you just go through life completely detached from reality with the mentality of "im not gonna kill myself, but if i died i wouldnt be sad"
when you run out of "im just a girl" and "it eez what it eez" energy and youre just
Bruh you need to be able to play piano,
and encourage your brother to play violin
But youre so perfectionist, you make your brother irritated and break his violin
😭
NOOOO (also i saved this to my omori playlist without watching the video and i just watched it 💀💀)
VAI is now banned to get within 500m of a staircase
I'll never forget the times I had no bed to carry me but the soft grass held me and the times I had no one to speak to and no one to hear my cries but the birds sung so beautifully to my sobs.
It reminds me of omori and particularly mari ngl (this is a compliment.)
the little expressions reminded me of omori =D
i thought this too - the whole vibe, aesthetic, and even the music made me think Omori. :) But definitely with the artist's own spin on it. It definitely got me.
the camera sway, monocrome colours, and uncanny stature of a person, are exactly what my nightmares look like. i love this video, thanks for making it, its actually super inspiring
This hits hard. Its been almost 3 years since Ive attempted. And Im around 5 months clean of SH. Its strange because usually that means something to people, like its evidence that Im not in that place anymore. But for me, it only takes one action to be back in that same place. Sometimes I feel like I still am, its just hard for people to notice.
Im glad youre all still alive and that youve made it this far. It took a lot of courage and Im sorry youve suffered.
Beautiful video! Great art
Please don’t do sh

give us an update on your mental health
u dead?
I don't know who you are (was just recommended this this morning) or what you're going through, but I hope in all honesty that you're doing well, and if not, at least doing better than you did yesterday. Currently going through a similar shitty mental health period myself, so I'm aware of how hard it can be.
Even though I'm surrounded by more people that care about me that I've even been in my life, I've never felt nearly as alone as I feel. Even with the success of school and the knowledge of what I'm capable of, I still feel like I'm a sham and going to fail at any moment, disappointing the ones I care about. Even though I know people enjoy my company and my ability to make them smile, I'm terrified that one day I'll say/do the wrong thing and they'll leave me.
I don't want to give in to the urges, no matter how tempting they might seem from the shadows. I don't know how things will turn out, but I've made it this far and I don't want it all to be in vain. I'm going to keep trying. Hopefully, it'll all be worth it in the end.
It’s hard. It does seem like a siren call when the stress and pain of everyday life outstrip our ability to cope. I have tried 4 times to slip the surly bonds of life and each time I was brought back from the brink. It’s just hard, life is hard but friends can make all the difference.
"Get back up, little brother. I believe in you"
For those who know what this comment is a reference to, you have been through one of the saddest games in recent memory, but in doing so you also played through peak, and grew as a person in the process. Please, have a good day, fellow Omori enjoyers 🥲
I saw the noose and just got overwhelmed with emotion. I just stopped thinking for a moment. I had those thoughts since i was 12 and attempted at least 6 times. Im 23 now and i haven't wanted to disappear in 2 years. Thank you for the art, i will keep living.

I’m a little late to the party, but I really loved this. It’s quiet but hopeful, reflective. Almost two years ago I attempted to overdose and take myself away from it all. I thought about it again multiple times after that. But I’m still here. I’m happy I’m still here
had my first suicidal thought when i was 11. i'm almost 20 and they haunt me since that very day. several failed attempts, years of sh (which i'm very proud to say i'm more than a year clean), depression hitting every so often, loneliness, unhealed trauma. the weight of being alive is sometimes unbearable, yet i'm still here. still here, still breathing, still feeling, still alive. i can't give up now.
It hurts me terribly to see others feel the same as I had to go through. Now I'm in remission, but terrible thoughts continue to haunt me sometimes. please know that the future is salvation, everyone has it

Wow this is so calming, thank you for making this :)) and I wish the same message for you too :)
The dissonance between the sweet and simple guitar melody with the crass, crude, and chaotic harmony is such a cool narrative tool.
The former representing the simplicity of life, being able to be happy even when just observing a balloon, like a child. The latter representing the rush of adulthood and having to constantly cater to so many needs, wants, asks, etc. However having to choose between those two is a more difficult and futile task compared to just letting it play out
Me two it's going to be okay okay? If I made it through horrible things you can make it through to man
I hope so, you’re too kind ❤️

i rewatched this video today and i nearly cried because it depict what i felt for yet so many days last month
i hope i'll get throught it, i hope everyone you is going throught a harsh time does
idk if this is intentional or not but I really love how much Omori vibes this gives off (pro tip: if you have not played Omori, play it, you'll see what I mean)
there’s something that this and yume nikki have that gives me a strange sense of comfort, while also encapsulating all of the feelings i have

Every person is unique. Trillions of people existed each with genetics specific to you, life experiences specific to you, and if you want to get spiritual a, unique spirit. Only you can bring what you have to this life and only you can touch people the way you do. Each person has significance. Yet again if you want to get spiritual; a child of a loving Father in Heaven who loves and cares about each of his children no matter what.

This was recommended to me and I'm stunned by the way this was made. I interpret this throughout my experience, I was ok, then realized what reality really is, after that I almost committed suicide, lost all my wanting of living, finally dealing with all these things and trying to live a fake happy life for the ones that tried to help me (of course, this is my literal interpretation of the video and obviously it is not that literal, but IDK)

Uuh sorry for ruining the vibe here (if there even is one), just thought this was a cool Portal animation or something with the song from y'know, Portal, with the name with the vid (Still alive, or it's not still alive and I just confused myself cuz I'm a schizophrenic mf) anyways cool animation Ig probably gonna check out the channel, or I'm just gonna start dancing right now cuz I'm listening to a pretty epic and awesome and cool song uuh yeah awesome cool uh
Alright I seriously gotta question what am I typing on TH-cam comments cuz like I thought of doing(?) a whole bit where I say that I'm a schizophrenic person so I'm gonna just start dancing alone in here because of the song... Like it's not even funny but ok

noticing that this was posted on my birthday leads me to say that something like this means a lot to me.
This’s very impressive: I love how you did so much with just a few simple shots and expressions!
This video reminds me of Omori, since it has a monochrome style, the girl looks similar to Spirit Mari, and it has the White Egret Orchid(or a similar looking flower) at the start, which’s used quite a lot in Omori.

I bed rotted for the first time in a long while. I would do anything in order to distract myself of being sad. This really spoke to me about how I used to feel or just my old self in general. Processing the idea that I didn’t think I wouldn’t live this long. I’m happy now but yet when bed rotting today makes me go back to that feeling.
I don't know who you are, I don't know what you've been through or what you're going through. Nonetheless I'm happy that you're still here.
For anyone reading this, I’m proud of you for just being here. Keep going. You’re loved

*This is White Space
*You've lived here for as long as you can remember
People, no matter how bad things get, remember that there is always hope. You always deserve happiness. You can get out of a suicidal state. I believe in you. Please remember this
I remember the discomfort of having those thoughts appear for the first time. I was just on a walk and suddenly each car passing by me on the road was an opportunity. I'm glad to be far out of that pit of despair now.
Whoever's reading this, I wish you the best on your journey. You being here makes the world a brighter place
Suicide.
What I would define it as?
An urge the brain gives when stressed for long amounts of time. Results in death if successful. Brain resorts to negative feedback if failed in hopes of second attempt.
"Disgrace. Humiliation."
A way to describe this negative feedback.
When the brain resorts to this urge, the stress may go away until the attempt. "A star shines its brightest right before death". The victim may resort to sharing feelings they've never shared with close ones, giving away important things, and just being more active overall.
Suggestions?
Well, there's a lot to think about. Getting help, thinking about what punishment an afterlife might bring you, the effects close ones will receive once given the news, etc.
Let's talk about each one separately.
*1. Getting help.*
The simplest, easier-said-than-done thing to think about. You can resort to a lot of things when it comes to "help".
The hardest one might be; telling your close ones and telling them you want help, you want support and telling them your struggles. This might be really hard to pull off, because it puts a lot of pressure on the person. But this is the most effective way, as the support is from loved ones you know are there for you and for nobody else.
Then comes suicide hotlines. These are not _the_ best, since they go through suicidal people calling them every single day, but it can work.
*2. Thinking about afterlife punishment*
The afterlife. A big question with no real good answers. Let's see the ones i can remember.
From what I know, suicide isn't treated well when it comes to afterlives. Most afterlives treat suicide as something the "superior being" didn't plan for you and is a sin. Thus, you will be sent into punishment. "Hell", if you will.
Afterlives like nothingness aren't that big of a threat.
Reincarnation? Well, that makes suicide just, wanting to "change character", if you wanna see it that way. It kinda makes suicide positive maybe? But this doesn't mean you should do it. Life has more prepared for you, but people are there for you. Remember point N°1.
"Dante's Inferno" is a take on hell that theorizes on hell having layers, each layer hosting different punishment for different things. At the very last layer lies Satan.
Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath, Heresy, Violence, Fraud and Treachery.
Violence.
Violence is a layer that focuses on, well, acts of violence. War, murder... This includes suicide. People who commit suicide are transformed into humanoid-like trees, unable to move, or do anything, but feel touch. Normally, sinners just roam hell, but people that commit suicide are FORCED into a life without any feeling but touch. They are compiled into the "suicide forest".
So yeah, it's pretty harsh knowing whatever afterlife there is where you can actually feel stuff will punish you for ending life too early.
*3. The effects on those that surround you.*
Knowing someone you've known has committed suicide is a really heavy feeling, and will give THEM guilt and shame for not being able to recognize your intentions and not being able to stop you. This can lead into a chain reaction of depression and suicide.
Thank you for reading. If you have failed an attempt at suicide, you should try point N°1. Talk to close ones. Tell them you've been feeling shitty and need to do something about it. Think with them on what could bring back your happiness.
Always remember to look forward on a future where no one has to suffer through these horrors. If life keeps throwing shit at you, again. Point N°1.
*YOU ARE UNIQUE. PRECIOUS. NEVER LET YOUR THOUGHTS TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU.*
take care. love ya ❤
