[quote=Anonymous]OP here. For the people who are saying they have loved ones who lived enjoyable lives into their 80s and 90s, are you really telling me they didn’t endure chronic physical ailments? That just doesn’t track with what I’ve seen. The reality is that you don’t get to choose. Killing yourself is a lot harder than one might think. You don’t want to mess it up and leave yourself worse. I can sort of see that desire to keep going. When I was as at my worst I’d often fantasize about how I could do it if I just couldn’t take anymore; and it weirdly calmed me down. I felt like it was a way out of my body. But I didn’t really want to die. I just didn’t want to suffer anymore. My mom just continues to suffer every day and no doctor ever really helps. It’s very frightening.[/quote]
