Is it weird that I dont care about the impact my death will have on my family?

People always bring up the pain your suicide would have on those around you as a reason to stay alive and when I think about it and properly visualise it, it just does nothing for me. Like I picture my fiancee being the first one to find my body and having to deal with it or my cat meowing outside the bathroom door or the phone call where my parents tell my siblings, and I properly try to empathise with the pain my death will cause and its just doesnt do anything - its like not a reason to stay alive. I get that this makes me pretty selfish and a bit fucked for thinking that. They're all lucky that ive always been such a coward I guess.

If I had access to a firearm I'd be dead

Too afraid off surviving with permanent brain or body damage to go out any other way. Its near impossible for me to get hold of a gun because i live in the UK but since I was at least 16 ive had vivid fantasies of shooting myself. Even if I could I'd probably fuck it up and live though.
