The Desire To Not Exist
Ever feel like you're just...done? Not in a morbid, "I want to die" kind of way. More like feeling really tired of existing, like it's just too hard to keep going. A desire not to be, period - to simply blink out of existence without the drama of death. It's a heavy concept, but one that resonates with more people than you might expect. An urge to permanently unplug from this whole struggle we call life.
The desire not to exist isn't just an extreme reaction to mental illness or crisis - philosophers and thinkers have spent centuries trying to make sense of this profound yearning. From Kierkegaard's "The Sickness Unto Death" to Sartre's sense of "nausea" over the absurdity of existence, it speaks to our very human struggle to find meaning and purpose in a world that often feels cold and indifferent to our existence.

When we are losing in a game, we can quit or the game will eventually end. When we are losing in life, we wish.

The real game is to be much better than you are. But calling it a game is trivial. It should be a GOAL. Losing in life can only be defined as failing to improve your character, your belief system, and your actions. If you do yourself some good - genuine good - then your existence will likewise also improve humanity. The best way to start winning in life is - once and for all - to cease associating with losers who drag you down.

If one is truly a deep critical thinker, then consciousness itself is inherently a curse. One who critically thinks always ponders the age old question of, why.
Sleep is good, death is better, to never have been born is best.

believe me when i say that i have been thinking about it since day 1
Why exist and build our life on earth when we just pass on.
That was depressing, but interesting.
I knew I wasnt the only one.
When we lose loved ones. Heaven is a better, loving place.

Wondrous art!
there is a difference between depression and the point when life is literally just torture, doesn't matter which philosophy one finds one in.be it nihilism or existential angst. it can be anger at existing, literally cursing each morning when you wake up ,whats the fucking point , Camus 's sisiphus not being happy
But at the base it is the same as being weary of life and old age and killing your self. Just some people are softbrained that don’t want to live but scared to die . You can’t have ur cake and eat it too .
Some people think this world owe them something. This world owes nobody not a goddamn thing. Imagine even god has boundaries. Devil has his boundaries. Accept your boundaries. You can't handle it. Get out of kitchen.
This video was a nonsense bit of pro life propaganda.
