> the only thing that keeps me from offing myself sometimes is the fear of negative consequences in an afterlife. I.e. I am too chicken to do it.
Yip, I am in the same boat. I am not a risk taker either. I don't believe in heaven & hell anymore, I just don't want to continue being alive/aware. If I had a button that would guarantee to simply not exist anymore I would have pushed it a long time ago.
I was hiking last weekend with a friend who mentioned that a few months ago she might of jumped off the cliff because of a harsh heartbreak. I said I would be too scared, and she asked why? People don't understand why I don't want to exist anymore or am afraid of dying. I don't understand them. I think about death every day.
