My favorite teacher from a few years ago was diagnosed with cancer. I couldn't believe it at the time. He was the best teacher I ever had and was universally loved by all at the small school I went to. He's one of the few intellectually inclined people I've met in my life. He thankfully survived his cancer battle but retired afterwards. I compare my life to his or the life of a young child diagnosed with cancer, and I wonder why it wasn't me. I'm worthless, I have nothing to offer, a hypocrite, and a bum. I hold the universe in contempt for all it has imposed on me. I have horrible luck, and I'm a certified loser in just about every way. Unfortunately, I just can't bring myself to commit suicide; I've considered death by cop and going postal, but that's difficult too. I can't get into drugs or drinking due to my living situation and being broke. If I were told I had a life-threatening disease tomorrow, I'd probably just accept it and refuse treatment. You can't know what you'd do in the moment, however. I'm a philosophical pessimist, and I have been my whole life basically. I've been consistently let down by life, and I hate just about everything about this excuse for an existence. I feel as if I'd be validated for once, that everything I thought was correct for once. I try and explain the pain I live in to my mother or grandparents, but they're normies, so they can't understand no matter what I try and tell them. I might as well not have any more living relatives when my relationships with them are like that. Completely different worlds. I have no friends anymore and no girlfriend of course. Been very isolated for the last year and a half now. Life ain't shit
 
We were metaphysically cursed. It's over for me. And I can relate very much to your post.
 
how old are you? I used to think that way too when I was younger. But with age you realize you are not immortal and become scared of death.
 
same, I'd want an incurable , fatal cancer or disease. problem is it's painful and even the medications suck. go to Canada or Belgium for assisted suicide.
 
only a couple years older, but I really don't get it
well I have a disability, and because of it I'm deformed and 1.62m. had I grown normally I'd have been 1.80m according to my parents' heights. I have brain issues. Never having a gf is a big problem but being treated badly by society is the much bigger issue for me. I avoid going outside whenever I can and this has its disadvantages too

I'm very much aware of my mortality; it's probably the leading cause of my issues with this life. It's like a force multiplier; it makes everything else bad even worse.
 
your post reminds me of an ethical dilemma i've thought about in the past. if a person who has been diagnosed with a terminal illness wishes to be put down by injection or some sort of legal execution method, should they be allowed to do so? i mean there is certain people out there who are ready to go, theyve lived their lives and they dont want to live however much longer they have to live laying in a hospital bed and getting picked on by doctors. so maybe they should be allowed at that point to just go out on their own terms (kind of) and leave in peace

What logical or moral reason should they not be allowed to die??
