I have ten I could name and have named. The three that particularly would resonate with me are the idea I might still owe people things, there being less extreme ways of going about my issues, and the thought of what happens after death.
If there are people who care about you, it’s not only selfish but also cruel. All you’re doing is passing on your pain to them.

I see it as the height of cowardice. If you feel like your life is truly worthless, that it has no value at all, you're wrong. You can always give your life fighting for a cause you believe in. I continue to live, continue to train, because I wish to die on my feet in battle. If you're an American like me, I've a feeling that battle will be coming very soon. If you aren't...well the world's a pretty violent place right now with fascists rising everywhere you look. I'm sure you'll find a good moment to fight back. Who knows, you might even survive to win, and could change your world enough that hope can live in your heart once more.
The only reason I haven't kicked it is because it would hurt people I love.
If there was some magical way to wipe the memory of my existence from all my friends and families minds I would be booking a first class ticket to hell immediately.
I've done pretty much everything I can reasonably do as someone in my tax bracket. All my other hopes and dreams cost too much and/or seem unlikely to happen at any point in the future so I may as well check out.
To be clear I am not actively suicidal right now, but I really think we ought to let people check out if they want to.
I didn't have a say in being brought into this world and it feels cruel to force people who don't wanna play anymore to stick around.
Me personally:
Un-alive over 9000 fascist's.
Because things will get better.
