Especially if your existence is a constant failure… When you own nothing, you have no future, job and no woman wants you (and you still a virgin as an old adult)… Recently I’ve feeling suicidal again, I don’t think I have the courage to do it, which makes this worse,I can’t even stop this from messing with me.
Sorry if you are bothered by this but I’m feeling really rotten. Just… Don’t tell me to get help, that’s not a possibility. I’m getting tired of just waking up alive.
Much respect to the various brilliant people who have made this argument, but it has never made sense to me.
You cannot compare experience to non-experience. By definition, not living is not negative or positive, it’s nothing. No matter how many times you multiply zero by one, the answer is still zero. Something cannot be compared to nothing. In this case, a person who does not exist can never know that they do not exist, therefore to evoke their misfortune is meaningless.
For me, the only thing a life can be meaningfully compared with is another life.
This question seems to be an interesting case of conflicting intuition.
