    Legs I could lose. (lose either means amputation or loss of all functions)

    One arm, yes

    Both arms? No
    Both hands? No

    Eyes? One yes, two no.

    The rest, yeah I can deal with losing the rest.

    I think that there's a very distinct difference between claiming that you can do something and actually being able to do it.

    Kind of like when one of my work associates thought he could set up the biggest bounce house we have all by himself. He did it, but he also hurt himself doing it.

    Have you ever read the book Johnny Got His Gun?

    Terrifying. It's about a man who loses his eyes, nose, mouth, tongue, ears, and all limbs. If I was ever in that condition, I'd want to die.

    I don't have it in me to kill myself no matter what....I know people would say that I'm wrong if I said suicide is the coward's way out but that's how I see it.

    If i couldn't see i'd consider it, yeah. Sight is kinda worse than anything else. I could deal with being deaf, no arms, no legs or whatever. But like, without sight its just rip most forms of entertainment and pretty much any chance at having a love life.

    It takes a lot of courage to kill oneself.

    I would only kill myself if I got bitten by a zombie.

    Pff. Killing yourself is one of the most selfish cowardly things a person could do.

    While I am as artistic as a brick myself, one of the few joys I get out of the existence on this ball of mud is listening to great composers like Hans Zimmer.
    Also, not being able to use computers properly? Watch moves? Read books (I know braille exists, but come on...)?

    If I was diagnosed with cancer I wouldn't fight it. I would live out as many days as I can comfortably live and then end my existence quickly.

    Where do I draw the line... I don't really like living as it is (not trying to sound edgy™ it's a simple truth I learned to admit openly) so it wouldn't take much for me to ALT+F4. (Or CTRL+ALT+DEL, if you're into certain beliefs.... reincarnation ...eew now there's a truly terrifying thought. Oo)
    In fact, if it weren't for people that I dearly love, I'd done it already during one of my past low points.

    Please lock this thread. This is really not the place to talk about Suicide.. Not sure why it would even be up for this long.

    Speechless tbh.

    So what would be the line for you? Personally, i´d be terrified to lose sight and hearing. Or loss of hands/arms. Never see my loved ones again, feel them, hear them, never game again, never see a perfectly shaped shortskirt ass on a summers day again. Unthinkable.

    So what would be the line for you?

    Even getting mimed terribly is still just getting mimed so I think I could manage.




    Now, if I was Maimed that would be a different matter.

    The world would be a shitty place if every discussion got locked due to one person whining about it.

    Eyes/reproduction would be the worst, but I think in order for me to kill myself I would have to be completely isolated in my own body, like losing sight, hearing and sense of touch.

    If I lost my eyesight/my arms/legs I doubt I'd be able to live my life.

    Wonderful. Would you mind expanding your opinion for me? I've never understood this take on suicide.

    Great... now I'll have nightmares. AND YOU ARE TO BLAME!
    Mimes are so creepy... almost as creepy as dem clowns.

    Why? It's a valid discussion.
    Every person should think about possibilities like that, since it could happen to anyone of us.
