>Why is death considered the end when every single thing in this world is cyclical?
Because not a single one of those cycles includes returning to the exact starting point. There is always change, and almost universally this change comes in the form of each point in the cycle being entirely separate and unique from all other instances of that stage in the cycle. Water cycles endlessly in our atmosphere, yet no raindrop is ever the exact same raindrop that it ever was before or ever will be again. Maybe the elements of your consciousness will by cycled and form a new consciousness, but that consciousness won't be you. This is the only you, and it has an end regardless of the greater cycle. Accept it, and stop running away under the guise of "hope."
There are people on this board right now who are dead

Because consciousness is just a bunch of reactions in your brain and there is zero evidence that it goes anywhere except for the dirt. You can also believe that you will win the lottery tomorrow despite never buying a ticket because anything else is just like, absurd bro, but that doesn't mean it will happen. And even if you do believe in the concept of an afterlife, why presume that it is going to be pleasurable? How do you know you aren't in an endless cycle that progresses towards infinite suffering? Maybe there isn't hope.

Wrong in every conceivable way. Everything is cyclical and everything eventually returns to the source. Even modern "science" dictates that the universe is fated to collapse and expand for eternity, repeating itself ad infinitum. If I take a single atom and move it from one point to another, then back to the original position, then this single example already invalidates your entire argument, as your argument is predicated upon the idea that nothing can ever be the same -- and it can. That atom is the same, and despite being moved a few times, now rests in its original position with no difference between its original and final states. Maybe you need to cope with the fact that the world isn't as black and white as you make it out to be, and that that big pessimistic potato you call a brain is just stuck in a loop of its own. Food for thought, jabroni.
