To think you have died and might be in hell...

is it normal to sometimes think you have died and might be in hell...am so serious am not trying to be funny...Its not like its an everyday thought but sometimes life is so unfreaking believable it make me wonder maybe this is hell?? I guess hell would be a lot worse but life can be so severely painful.

    Heaven and Hell are just metaphors that we use to describe our time on Earth. Heard that somewhere and it kind of stuck with me.

    Honestly, we've all had our ups and downs. Even though life seems bleak now it doesn't mean that you're in Hell. This may just be my opinion but I don't think that you can experience true misery without something to compare it with, like happiness. There is always an upside to everything if you try to look for it. Believe me, I've been in some situations where I've contemplated suicide but I knew that there was a bright side to it all, I just didn't want to look for it. In a way, I wanted to be miserable. Finally, after experiencing it all I looked back and saw the positive aspects of what happened. This may sound cheesy, but as Frederick Nietzsche said "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger."

    Decided to take my story out sorry for anyone interested . I was just a bit uncomfortable with it but yeah , have at times thought I must've been in hell. Luckily tho I discovered later, you just never know when life can turn around.

    i wonder this too. maybe im destined to feel unhappy most of the time, never reach my goals & the thing that is torturing us is the HOPE of happiness and success. maybe we're only given a small taste of happiness and the feeling of achievement so we crave it, chase it, get close but don't ever reach it.

    Maybe..

    No. You should visit your doctor if you feel depressed.

    I think that too sometimes! I cant believe someone else thought this.

    Itmeans you have deep thoughts about life and you take the time to analyse the possible answers to the existential questions.

    Life here is sick, and if there is a hell, I dont know how it could be much worst. Thats my reason.

    Now, what the f*ck have I done to end up here?

    I don't believe in Hell so I would say no.

    Happiness cannot exist in hell.

    Well, to pose a logical argument, if we were in hell then all the good things we experience would also be components of hell. Like raspberry jam, John Candy, the smell of gorse in September, rolling down sand dunes, winter walks with dogs puffing plumes of steam, out of breath through chasing sticks in the naked woods with the low-lying sunlight and the promise of hot chocolate at home.

    I know life is tough at times, but it's not solely tough. Chin up. :)

  • Yes, life can be very painful (reference song: REM ~ Everybody Hurts) and that pain makes the enjoyable parts more exquisite.
