Is it normal to wish you'd never been born?

I wish I'd never been born but I'd never commit suicide as I'd never want to put those close to me through that (amongst other reasons). IIN?

    I often feel the same way. Sometimes I wish I could just be erased from existence.

    It might not stem from depression completely it maybe I'm one of the few people who are just so lazy they don't want to exist so they don't have to do shit like dry the laundry or have a conversation with a family member cause they pry way too much.
    But yes, it is normal to wish you didn't exist, at some point of your life you'd think this.

  • It's normal to feel that way if you are depressed. Trust me, I've felt that way a few times myself and it's not a good place to be. You really need to help yourself by connecting with someone who you can trust with your feelings. If it's not a friend or family member, then perhaps you could see a counsellor about it. When you feel this low, it's time to ask for help and it is okay to ask for it. Take care.

  • Suicide, just transfers the pain to someone else, hell yes. I would concider it down the road. I want them to feel the pain I have felt. To be laid up in pain or put somewhere, no I would die first!
