That stuff is liable to get you tortured before death in some fashion. Not a nice way to go. Also, aggressive acts like beating someone up don’t really align with how most people experience depression, it generally promotes apathy, sadness, self-hate and a general lack of energy, not outward aggression.
I understand. While I was never truly suicidal I often wished for my situation to be just over and to disappear. So I think I get the people who make those “quick” decisions like jumping in front of a train, from a height or drive the car into a wall or something.
However, there also seem to be suicidal people who make elaborate plans with a whole lot of preparation and with seemingly a big focus on visibility and messaging. For those, I could imagine going after a crime Syndicate and things like that.
Yet, while I was writing this I realized these people with a death wish but also aggression and a wish to punish others are probably mass shooters and terrorists…
