‘Completed Life’ Phenomenon

[sserafim]

What do you think?

 

[davidtorez]

I agree . There's not much to look forward to at those ages for alot of the elderly . So if they wanna check out , why not

One of my cheesy sayings I lived by when I was much more 'out and about' and travelling was:

"Life's not measured by the number of breaths you take but the number of moments that take your breath away"

I agree. It's about quality (of life), not quantity (of years)

 

[stilhavinightmares]

YES!!! I have always thought about it this way. And why shouldn't I have a say in deciding when I'm all set with my life?

 

[ijustwishtodie]

In my case, a second spent on this earth is a second too long. My life would have been better if it never started to begin with. Though, in the case of other people who like life more than me, they are right to not want to live through old age as it's absolutely awful and full of suffering. I believe that anybody can say that their life is complete at any point during their lifetime and it'd be valid. If they want to check out at a specific time or age, they should be allowed to peacefully

I don't blame elderly people for taking their own lives. There are so many horrible things related to health that can happen the older you get.

 

[BlendedHeart]

Absolutely. I don't want to get old. Given my family's health history, horrible things are expecting me at that age. I don't like to depend on anyone for anything. Being that vulnerable and frail scares me.

I don't want to keep on doing years

 

[sserafim]

I don't want to keep on doing years

Me neither. I feel like I've already completed my life. I don't think that I'm meant to live out a full life. I didn't want to live past 18. 25 is my maximum exit point

yes. i really don't like life and i'm going to be another year older soon. it's really a nightmare.

 

[MyChoiceAlone]

unfortunately that is only accepted in one place that i've heard of for vad. and it's seems very vague and a tedious process.

side note: ever sit on the white throne and wish your next bowel movement contained your heart?
