Back before I discovered body communication, I was good at separating feelings from actions. No matter how I felt, it wouldn’t result in me committing suicide or harming myself. It couldn’t, since I didn’t provide my body with any suicidal behavior options. Since there were no options, it was never a consideration. It was always just a very terrible feeling. | ||
{{Warning |heading=Warning |align=left |Most people can’t separate extreme needs and extreme feelings from actions in this way. That ability is not common, so please do not expect anyone to be able to keep themselves from suicide without help. I do not know how I was able to separate feelings and needs from actions so easily, but it made other extreme behaviors, like fasting for 33 days, practically effortless for me. If you or someone you know feels like harming themselves, please find help immediately. Many countries have crisis help lines to help people in need through these terrible situations. If someone you know feels like harming themselves, know that talking about it with them will not make suicide more likely. You can be there for them. You can get them help. There is always a way. | {{Warning |heading=Warning |align=left |Most people can’t separate extreme needs and extreme feelings from actions in this way.

Fixing my depression stopped those needs from occurring, however, I eventually discovered the source of the need for suicide. There is at least one suicidal need node. It gets triggered if enough of the individual’s internal network hates their living environment enough to provide the suicide node with enough encouragement to do its job. Its sole job is pushing the need for suicide. It doesn’t matter which parts of the internal network provide that encouragement. Practically any of them can be the catalyst. | ||
Evolutionarily speaking, this suicide node likely exists to protect a gene pool from individuals that exist in inhospitable internal network environments, depending on their biological and environmental circumstances. Basically, this node harms individuals, but would serve to speed up natural selection. A gene pool is more likely to thrive if individuals that pass negative traits use fewer resources and are less likely to pass on those negative traits. | Evolutionarily speaking, this suicide node likely exists to protect a gene pool from individuals that exist in inhospitable internal network environments, depending on their biological and environmental circumstances.
