I actively fantasize about ending my own life, or situations where a shooter threatens to kill me and I ask him too. Only reason I haven't already killed myself is because of family and friends constantly reminding me of how selfish it is. This life is hell and there's no point to living.

Nihilism is for pussies. Read 12 rules for life by Jordan Peterson and actively start to make life better for yourself and those around you.
This is the one life you get, It’s hard and every moment you get to experience with someone else is rare and beautiful. They suffer, you suffer, we all suffer. Lessen their suffering by not adding to it.
Cheer up buddy, Tomorrow there is a cup of coffee and a sunset. Life is magical :)

Convert to another religion perhaps? Or just be a tiny bit religious? Something to fill the void user. Meditate on this a bit.

Petersthin is a shill

Or listen to Akira The Don. He makes music from lectures of people like Peterson

Your opinion is so poorly expressed it holds no validity even if you have a logical and intelligent opinion.

The book is essentially a common sense self help book giving you a new value structure. The book is so superbly useful he will reach through it with his Kermit hand and ram som logic up your ass and use you as a muppet.
So why don’t you go read it before you virtue signal on Yea Forums snowflake.

>nihilism is bad&sad
faggot interpretation. Nihilism is freedom. When nothing matters you get to decide what you enjoy and do whatever you want.

Hell yeah man, Life is custard doughnuts and coffee. I even pursued a career as a professional artist. Fuck the rat race.

So be an empty, hedonistic loser?

That's how I was at first too. It was nice when I was coming off of religion for the first time because I didn't feel like there was a god breathing down my neck all the time. But eventually I realized that if nothing matters at all, then I might as well just die. You're going to experience pain in life, so to experience the least amount of pain death is the only escape.

thats pathetic as fuck lol

Tell me how I'm wrong fag

Correct and I'm sure there will be some backlash to the idea. I'm not sure why though, unless you are a teenager
Where is it you get that interpretation from? Does hedonism maximize long term happiness? Do short term happiness trump life long accomplishment?
Life isn't all suffering. There is a lot of good there as well. Depending on how you live your life of course. Maybe read Plato and Aristotle about living a good life. It's sort of antiquated but certainly is the broad strokes of living a good life. Of course if you want or need a God to live a good life, then do it man.

I honestly believe I was happier when I believed in god, but I just simply don't believe anymore. Looking for ways to move forward ig. Thank you tho.

That is a bummer. Now that you cant believe you are going to have to work harder to live a good and happy life. Up side is if you work hard enough you might end up being even happier. I cant say I am there myself. Good luck man. I've got plenty of recommendations. Buddhism in particular is great. Change the way you think. Be happy in the moment and let it go.

I think user is trying to say you're a naive person with the mindset of a child. You think you know it all, but you don't. You see nothing to live for. You can't just give up, it's not an option. Surely there's something to live for. You keep holding on to this past pain, it's got you stuck in a loop. You have an entire life ahead of you, and you're lucky enough in this world to actually have an education. Go do something will all the time and money your parents spent on you to actually do something with your life. It's completely up to you to decide what that is. Whatever you want in life is yours.

>Happy young child leaves religion, gets angsty with delusional theories of many philosophies, doesn't feel happy and kills himself - ATHEISM. Many such cases!

Shit I honestly invest in a thread and then it just dies. Such is life. Eat a dick. I'm out
