Would you rather me tell you about the tank of helium and the bag and hoses I bought and then returned, or do you just want to go back to playing cards and getting on with things?

Made the right choice BTW, stay strong.

I don't know if it was strength or not. I fell in love. Went to visit a friend I have known for 20 years but never met in person. Intended for it to be a goodbye. Plan was to go see him, get back home, mail the letters, drive to the ocean, and watch the sea as it happened. Even bought clear bags to make sure I could see it.

Fell in love with him while I was there. Not sure if that'll work out or not, but it gave me a reason to live. And if it doesn't work out, it means there might be other reasons to live still out there. I had only ever had the one reason, it was an honest to surprise to find out there could be another.

The key is that you persist. I call it survival or I like to say, despite whatever is going on, "yet I still persist". Finding new and different reasons to help you maintain this persistence are also very important. Stay here don't leave. That's it.

I hope you continue to find new reasons.

Exactly. I couldn't agree more.

When killing yourself the right thing to do is to set it up some piano wire in such a way that you're able to sever your own head, AFTER supergluing your hands to the side of your head.

Its crucial that you have a friend that's in on it so that they can remove the piano wire when they "stumble" on to your dead body, and the investigators struggle to figure out how and why your ripped your own head off.
