Yes. I've saved a few from suicide at times. I don't believe that's the right option. Despite how dire things may seem (excluding some very specific circumstances perhaps). There's always a purpose and evolutionary point you can make with your life. To give it ultimate purpose no matter how big or small, or what's the point of living? And I don't mean Godly purpose, although that can empower one as well, it has it's uses, but purpose for your self even, whatever you use it for, be sure it provides some value and ultimately you don't have to die with regrets, having evolved from such shames, whatsoever fuels your purpose or others let them be. I use to slip into nihilistic thinking, but ultimately I found a purpose beyond that and it's now what I believe in. Regardless of how well I understand it yet. Although personally I am a spiritual person so I am skeptical this is all we're stuck with anyway because of personal research. This isn't to say I don't slip into nihilistic smackbacks from time to time, it certainly runs it's course. But people are full of viewpoints, whether religious, atheistic, agnostic, spiritual, wiccan, on and on. It all has it's merits and potential pitfalls. Existence and life is a complicated concept, yet simple in a sense as well. I believe we should hold onto what makes us happy, what gives us hope, what we thrive on, what we love, who we love (and hopefully learn to love ourselves in the process, good and bad, it's you, accept it and learn) and ultimately unify. A lofty and unlikely outcome, but if there was ever any higher purpose that would be it. Kinda reminds me when any big disaster happened many came together to help rebuild. Hearts were opened through tragedy. "I" became "We". We may never achieve a paradise of any sort, cuz that's HIGHLY unlikely logically, virtually impossible, however we can hopefully work best to achieve the most of our own internal paradises to constantly improve and evolve. The only real core purpose would probably be evolution in any wholistic manner. I would say "Love" but I hear that a lot, and it's cringe and flowery. Nor am I entirely loving of a person anyway. But I work with what I am, who I am, and I believe in evolving always. At any rate.
