new year made anyone else exponentially more suicidal?

[socksnsandles]

everyone else talking about "new year new me cant wait to get all my shit together" and im just over here like yeah i dont relate

 

[infiniteresignation]

i always feel much more suicidal after the new year because it reminds me that without intervention my life (and therefore my discomfort) is going to carry on lol... not to coopt your post w my experience i just mean yeah you're not alone. "new year more pain" imo

thats a great way of putting it

 

[sanctionedusage]

all the people saying that lack discipline and rely on motivation. even the motivation isn't from within; they're just hopping on an emotional bandwagon like codependent sheep. people who actually get their shit together almost never do it on a new years resolution, and they definitely never actually talk about it. i think a birthday is a lot more meaningful and relevant for the margin of people who need a date to put their foot down or whatever, but no one does those, since it's not universally hyped up and people rely THAT much on a collective mindset. they're gonna be doing the same shit as always by april (maybe february), just like we're gonna keep doing the same shit but without the theatrics.

yeah i don't bother with using dates anymore the reason people fail resolutions is the same reason they fail their goals, they haven't learned how to achieve them.

 

[Lullaby]

Yeah, I had this overwhelming urge to cry last night, but it wouldn't come out.

It did today, though, after an incident and it's like I got promptly reminded that things aren't going to change.

I woke up to a champagne glass I forgot I had left on my dresser, totally shattered all over my bedroom floor and that was for sure something I took as an omen.

 

[mushroommamma]

I know I went from "maybe things will be okay" to "I could probably make a purchase next payday" if you know what I mean

 

[Arb]

Makes me realise how quickly time goes, how little I've progressed in life. Death is mercy and I need it soon

 

[DeathSweetDeath]

Yup, I didn't want to enter into 2026 at all, it just feels completely wrong.

 

[badenddonuts]

new year's is usually a more hopeful time for me, but that feeling was noticeably absent this time around..normally i spend it with a specific person, but he hasn't been around. definitely the worst holiday i've ever had to date.

 

[davidtorez]

New year. New pains. Life sucks

 

[kunikuzushi]

yeah there's a pressure to have a fresh start. but I ruined the new year instantly. I've already ruined my relationship in the first day, and somehow it makes me feel more like a failure that I tainted the new year so quickly.

 

[boyafraid]

I feel like the holidays multiply all my issues by 10 lol. It's not great when I feel hopeless and misereable, just to see everyone else around being all happy/hopeful. Plus. I swore 2025 would be my last year and I even attempted but I'm still here sadly.

Precisely the thoughts I've been having for the past week. Holy hell. Thank you for sharing. That's the exact thought train I've been spiralling on.

Well said.

I understand, I always see it as so terrible and dreadful to suffer in this existence, another year just means another year of suffering and torture with existing beings tortured in agony every second, it's all so cruel and I wish I never suffered more than anything.

Only non-existence can bring me the peace I search for from this evil existence that just causes all this terrible pain and suffering all for the sake of it and problems there were never a need for with no limit as to how much one can be tortured, the existence of life truly is the most devastating, cruel and terrible tragedy and the fact that humans continue to cause so much harm and suffering by forcing this onto others truly is so dreadful to me, only non-existence is positive to me, this existence will always be a mistake to me and every second in this existence is torture to be conscious, I always suffer so unbearably from existing in this horrific anti-suicide world where it's a crime wanting true peace from this abomination.

 

[thelostautistic]

Definitely. I just feel dread going into the new year. I don't know if I can do another year of this

exactly. with the start of the new year, with every passing month, the shitshow will continue. and for me, it just got even worse. i feel so hopeless, like i cant do anything.

 

[gasforme]

The New Year has just emphasized how alone I am and I have no energy to do taxes and other chores at all.

 

[LastAcrobat]

With all the shit that has gone down in the first 10 days I'm honestly slightly less suicidal now as I'm morbidly curious as to what the fuck is gonna happen.
