The situation is a bit more complex than that, but in any case, that's a rather weak rationale for not committing suicide.
Here is a better reason: You'll be dead quite soon in any case, so unless you're in agony, you may as well enjoy your final days here. Think of some of your favorite activities and pick one. Rinse and repeat.
Sound shallow? Maybe, but I've spent an awful lot of time contemplating the question.
- notch656a 4y agoSorry if I did a poor job of conveying, but my comment was never intended to rationalize committing suicide or not committing suicide. It was to illustrate society generally doesn't respect these wishes, that these wishes often fail, and that ending up in an institution staffed by our juniors may be less of our own choice than we may think.
- throwawaydad12 4y agoAgree. Ending up in a situation where suicide was not possible is probably one of my greatest fears.
