Venting Venting and kind of political

[TypicalTenntz]

Something I really hate is how people think that just because it would cause me a form of harm they are within their right to attempt to stop me from my plan to CTB. In my mind I think it's fine that any of my friends or family might want to discuss other options with me or something, but at the end of the day my body is my own ya know? And even if it is a bit reprehensible in the eyes of others I think that any action I have that does not physically affect others is mine to make. Like why should there be any legal right to interfere with my life? It's the same shit in my mind as people who self harm, or do drugs, nobody really stops them even if they talk to them about stopping they can't just jump in and stop it. I think the value placed on a human life is insane, it's entirely fueled by everyone's mass savior complex and some other bullshit but honestly this might be getting to long for a first post anyways. IDK just rubs me the wrong way that any government could have a say in what we do with our bodies. If we give them just one right to one aspect of the individual, it is not long until the fascist want more, and it is not long until they try to take that autonomy. Sure, give up your right to CTB today, but what are you really giving up? What will they want you to give up next? First forfeit the right to CTB, then the right to be private, and then what? What will you be giving up next in the name of "progress"? And just beyond the politics of it all, why must I be a part of "something bigger"? I never asked for that! I never asked to be forced into these social contracts that hold me down and tell me what I can and cannot say to the very people causing me pain. I never wanted to be a part of this oppressive regime called "community" by most. I never wanted to be alive this long, or to be held to the standards of a group. why is it always "but you matter so much to whoever" and "but you impact xyz" and not just "yeah Tenntz you have the right to CTB whenever you want, and we love you for who you are as you are even if that means accepting that one day you will CTB"

I thought about this before, and I'm sorta in the middle. I hate feeling like I'm somehow pushing for someone to kill themselves, yet at the same time, I do believe that people have the right to death. Because, we cannot consent to birth, but we can to death. I also really do struggle with the idea of losing someone, but again, that's a me problem and I wouldn't want someone to live 'just because I can't handle letting them go.' It's quite the tightrope to trek.
