Lifelong suicidal here. They are indeed normal thoughts for me.

Seconded. It’s less common for me to have a day where I don’t think about it in at least some volume

In fact I find it weird that some people don't think about it. I believe it's a normal part of the human existence to ponder suicide

I’m with you, but I have a friend who finds the concept literally inconceivable. (and they know what the word means)

I find it inconceivable that it could be inconceivable.

I’ve had the exact same thoughts. Especially whenever I talk to people about this topic and they are just super concerned and confused as to why I’d think about it. It seems just so normal to me at this point

I think that those people think about it too but it's too taboo of subject, or they supress the thoughts somehow, idk

I just had this conversation with my 80 year old uncle who claims to have never thought of suicide. But he's catholic, so it would be a heinous act to even admit it to himself
