Fear...like seriously, why do any of us bother doing anything we don't want to do. Eventually, life will suck for everyone and anyone on the planet. You can try and find meaning in things and enjoyment in life but it's all fleeting and seems like cope. Why do people have kids? Because they are biologically engineered to find the opposite sex attractive enough to reproduce with them and they realize they will one day die and want to continue their bloodline as a means of escaping death. Why do people get jobs? To make money. Why do people make money? To obtain things that help you avoid dying. It's all just fear that circles back to cope with the fact you will die and eventually nothing at all in your life would have mattered because everyone who ever knew you existed will be dead too. It may seem like I'm being overly negative, but this also just seems to be reality. I think that's why normal people don't want you to kill yourself, because they are coping themselves into believing that "there's so much more to life" when really, there isn't. They are all just afraid and coping with their eventual demise (understandably so). That's why when they see someone suicidal, they try to convince them that life will get better for them, even though they probably know it won't and just want them to continue living because they themselves are too afraid to do what the suicidal person is about to do. Life is all we we've ever known, so when we see someone who clearly does not care to live anymore, subconsciously, we think something is wrong with them and that we have to help them and others like them to continue our species. Well for a lot of these people who've killed themselves, I understand why. Life will always get worse even when it does get "better". Fear begets knowledge, knowledge begets understanding, and understanding begets the eventual decision to either realize it's all pointless or cope...a lot of people just ignore this as a way to cope or maybe they are just too dumb to understand (IQ pill
). Before you come at me, I want to say that I am not immune to cope either. I am a Christian...or at least...I was one, and I felt that the only reason for living was Jesus Christ. I thought he was a hero, and I truly believed in him at one point, but now I'm not sure what I am anymore or where I stand in reality. I'm slowly giving up on everything and the people in my life don't understand why. When I talk to them, it's always the same story worded differently and I'm just tired of it.
