    I think I’m going to do it soon, no point in continuing if I’m just going to be a joke for people to laugh at. Got my gun right here in the lower drawer of my desk, it’ll be quick and I don’t have anyone left either who’ll miss me. Daughter died in car accident 2 years ago, threw my wife out other day (I don’t miss her, she was nasty to me wanted to have another child to replace my late daughter) no one left to miss me or care about me. I’m also far out in the boonies so I bet I’d be a skeleton by the time I’m found by someone.

      im not going to try to prolong your suffering but if you can, please try to do it in a hospital so your organs can be given to someone else. record a will so yiur ex wife gets nothing. check my post history, two of the most recent concern this.

        I’m pretty sure my organs wouldn’t be given to anyone else, nor would my wife want anything I have, it’s all junk anyway.

      What could possibly be more important than you? What could supercede your will to life?

      Surely the only thing that existentially matters to you, is you. Right?

      I do believe it’s your choice. But I also believe that the choice is wrong. There are countless numbers of other paths to try that could instill an essence in you.

      Try moving to a city. Try moving to another country. Try learning an instrument. Try a new language. Try finding a new partner. Try a new sport. Try finding new friends. Try hiking. Try a different job, or no job. Try a new book. I could go on.

      Try anything and everything that could prevent you from coming to a permanent end.
