I did not expect this this post of mine to attract as many people minimising SA as it did. Bit of a downer, yeah.

Could you please elaborate?
TW for SV and death
I'm 99% sure it is some debatebroshit
A lot of people don't get that there are worse things than death.
cw: death
spoiler
as someone thats been very close to death, for real. its honestly not even the worst thing, your brain gets flooded with hormones and it makes you feel super high. at least that was my experience. the consequences of SV can scar you for the rest of your life, whereas death is something that is often random and out of your control. i dont feel scarred by my NDE, personallyCW suicide discussion
There is a whole other rant in me on how this "death is the worst thing ever" (by what metric?) bullshit minimizes suicidal people thoughts and reasoning (yeah that exists! People who consider suicide are weighing options!) and disregarding that doesn't help at all.
~~And if I understood diamat probably tie it to idealism and individualism~~ shouldn't speculate about shit I know nothing about
As an idealist and a person to whom such stuff is relevant, I can tell you that that nonsense has nothing to do with idealism.
Yeah that was a stupid thing to say apologies.
Oh, I'm not offended at all. No apologies needed.
Still it is pretty stupid to speculate like that and something I should feel sorry for
