All very good points. I'd like to add that when you're suicidal to the point of actually carrying out a plan, you experience a thrilling loss of care for societal norms and expectations. There's the mindset of 'I'll be dead soon and none of this will matter', possibly also experienced by those with terminal illness (?), that allows you to live more authentically and fearlessly. The spectre of all humankind - death - suddenly is no longer a threat to you. This opens up a strange experience wherein one feels there are no limits; anything and everything is possible.Couple of thoughts.
1) Nietzsche and others alluded to the lack of danger being suffocating to the human condition. Thrills of relinquishing all control, near death can translate into a near life experience. Flash of light, one blinding moment is all it might take. Fight Club ofc emphasised it well & repeatedly. The exquisite scene with the deli employee.
2) same as point 1 really. We are born with certain intense vital biological energies. Like the neanderthal or any creature. Life force. Survival. Whatever 'that' is i bet it flashes right near the wire of mortality for all creatures. (and time dilation ofc)
3) Naturally humans do suicide the most (according to current statistics). So i'm wondering if modern humans, being so very distant from that vitality get a double or triple dose in near-suicide.
Affirmation on at leat 3 levels. animal - ego - universal/soul
- oh gaspp i'm alive i'm organically aliiive
- gasp i'm me i'm me, this swirling void seems expertly distilled into a refreshed cocktail that i'm back holding that i again KNOW TO BE ME, fiercely ME.
- universal. Unknown spiritual thirsts might be quenched. For the religious it may be Mary, and the solace with the goddess. Perhaps ones with spirit helpers, are in effect & administer something. Messages of geometric are likely.
For others, it might just be a glimpse of the ecstacy of a dark quivering horizon, no religion necessary.
This exhilarated state tends to be short-lived. It's the actions you take whilst in this state that determine future outcomes - and if you follow your passion, from these crossroads one could well soon arrive at that 180. I personally haven't, so this is just speculation.
