Hunter S was quoted as saying he would feel really trapped if he didn't know he could commit suicide at any moment, which we know how that ended.
I've always felt the same. I take solace in knowing that when I'm old and brittle, I've used every bit of love and patience and strength, when I cant live the way I want to anymore; that there is an easy way out of it all. And I'm confident that's how it will end for me. It's not about depression, because I'm far from depressed. More about preference I suppose.
I've had this conversation with many people, few who don't find suicide as selfish, a waste of life, stubborn, a coward's way out... etc.
Do people deserve the right to decide for themselves without it being such a negatively viewed act?
