I mean, most people haven’t experienced a single day of existence where they’d have rather… Not.
And it follows they have no concept of how someone can still function if they feel that way. Intuitively, you’d think those two things are mutually exclusive.
So, probably also wierd how easy it can be to continue to go through the motions of life even as there is less than nothing inside.
I hope the “days I want to be alive/days I want to not exist”-ratio improves for you.
I get all of that. I understand it rationally. It doesn’t get easier to be understood by literally no one. It’s so fun to get asked “where do you see yourself in the future?” Or whatever similar question someone has and surprise them with the ol’ “what future?”
Seeing that question break people’s brains makes it much easier to understand why no one believes that we could possibly destroy the world through climate change. “But it’s always been here. It can’t END. Don’t be silly!”
Their brains don’t even see the possibility of their own deaths. Not really. They’re scared of death in the vague sense. Not the specific sense. Their death. Their end. They truly don’t believe it will happen, deep down, even under a lot of people claiming they do.
