At the moment I'm looking for reasons to live. My life as I see it is simply one of many and I'm finding it hard to establish why exactly I'm special enough or indeed in anyway to deserve to live. If I were to die, what would happen? A few people would be sad? Yeah sure. A few would wonder why, how etc? Yeah I can imagine that would be the case. But, in the end, the rest of life would go on, the lifes of my friends and family wouldn't stop. If I were to die, I wouldn't be alive to miss those who I care about, whom I feel an inconvenience to at times.

On one side I have my inbuilt human desire to live, on the other cold rational thought. It feels like the two are fighting it out and that neither is prevailing. If I have the courage to take my own life is questionable, but I'm wondering If anyone else can shed light on any reasons to live? It's got to the point where I'm simply not sure now and I have to find an answer, else it will mean many more hours spent in this wierd limbo.

I appreciate any help anyone can give.

Make your life special. Decide that you'll change something, that you'll make something better. Change someone elses life. Do community service, or volunteering. Find a meaning, really.

Or, if you can't figure something out to do, remember that there are people that love you. Dying would hurt them tremendously. They would be horribly unhappy, especially knowing you ended your life because of something they may have done wrong.

Finally, get some help. Serious thoughts of suicide aren't healthy. You should talk to a school counselor, your parents, or a psychologist about whats going on. You can make your life happier.

You never got married. You never had a child. You never got a job probably. You never had grandchildren. You never got a car or a good car. You never bought your first house.

These are all things that you don't want to miss. What exactly is the problem? What makes you think that suicide is the only answer? All of your friends and family will be sad and they will live on, but they would have to lkve on knowing that someone they loved thought suicide was the right answer. Think about your funeral. Is this what you want sometime soon? If it's as bad as you make it sound, then it can't get worse so try to make it better. You have a reason for being on this planet. You know that. Everyone has their purpose. What's yours? If you search far enough, you will find it. Don't think suicide is the only option. Don't. Live your life until death happens naturally. I believe in you. I really do. If you want more respect from people, then don't choose the option out you want to take now. Live your life forever.

Love,

Your reason to live? It's to live, and have as much fun as possible.

Your reason to live? To have dreams, to aspire to those dreams, to try your hardest and maybe CHANGE SOMEONE'S LIFE (for the better ofc.) :-)

Reason? I don't think there is a reason, but there is the fact that once you're gone you're gone. You can't go back, as far as we know. Do you really want to take that chance? There are people who love you on earth and there is a whole shitload of opportunity for you to be whoever you want, and to leave this funk behind.
Dahling, you're meant to live.
