What is it that keeps you fighting? Keeps you breathing another day? What keeps you from taking that one last step?

Will... refusal to concede... stubbornness... and ignorance; I don't know how to quit
And you?

That there's no point in taking that step. I believe in an afterlife and who says it isn't just as craptastic as this life? SO I see no point in trading one crappy existence for another.

Now if I could know for sure that we just blip out and there's nothing after...........then I can't think of a thing to keep me here other than spite

I guess there are multiple factors. I still want to explore the luxuries of the world through travelling, I still want to keep in touch with the paranormal, I want to explore my interests, and I want to stick with my friends (my actual family and friends? I know I'll have to and it ain't that bad... sometimes).

When it comes down to it, probably loyalty. I can't stand the fact that I'd be hurting people in ways I don't want to believe possible.
I was mostly just asking because the night I posted, I was having trouble seeing a way to keep going. There always is though. My fiance. I can't leave him.

Possible trigger:

i was one of those who discovered a gentleman who took his life while I was in the hospital. That was bad enough but also difficult was seeing how the event's trauma spiralled out amongst all who were touched by it.

I just can't do that to someone.

I also hold out hope that things will improve.
