  • Its normal enough to just be fed up with everything and want it all to stop. It means you’re in distress and you need to find a way to bring everything back into within coping range. SI is probably a step quite beyond that and basically at the end of one’s rope after awhile that there’s literally no hope and such suffering that the only logical choice seems to be exiting.

    Suicidal ideation is your mind telling you the current circumstances are not tenable and you don’t feel that there is any other viable way to make things better and be out from a dead-end pit of suffering that exceeds your coping abillities and resources.

    Are there any conditions or challenges that are dominant in your life that you are distressed by and see no way out of, that overshadow any hope of change and easing up?

    One can be extremely stressed and challenged by condition(s) in life that they see an end date to and where they will be better of and have time to recharge before they need to deal with the next challenges and be able to cope with that because there is hope and the motivation/experience that tells them they will get the rewards if they persevere thru the darkness and bumpy stuff

    If there’s

    • no hope
    • no rest/recovery
    • no motion/possibillity for change
    • no reward

    And thats just your life, its not really sustainable and one would likely turn to such thoughts or impulses like you’re describing.

    The thing is, if suicide is an option in one’s mind, thats such an extreme outcome and thing to try to plan and execute on that there’s basically always a better option that you can find but you need to ask for help and radically open your mind to other situations you might be able to transtiion yourself into that might suck but is allows you to start fresh(er) and have somethint workable as a foundation to try again and at least not be in the situation that is shutting you down and making you imagine having to resort to S


  • I wonder how complicit the Texan authorities are.

    This issue is bullshit because they could easily stop the problem by absolute liabillity prosecuting any and all employers who hire and obtain labor from workers that are not legally allowed to be in the country AND/OR work.

    It would stop very quickly and anyone else looking at coming for work would realize its not worth it and find other opportunities elsewhere. The liabillity as it stands seems to always be shouldered by the workers themselves and never the rich employers so its a bullshit issue they dont want to fix and have no intention of addressing the root cause.

    Pretty sure they could go to any Trump property and do a sweep and catch at least 1 person who was knowingly hired for cheaper wages and shitty employment terms by the Boss himself
