Perhaps the question is how much misery are you willing to tolerate to prolong your life for how long?
Certain treatments take weeks to recover from while giving you months, years, even decades of life expectancy with good quality.
Other treatments of late stage terminal cancer only give you a few more weeks in the hospital.
my life is miserable even though im not sick. i would not qualify for assisted suicide. what does that mean? but if i got a terminal illness i would. so my life is motivated by the idea that i will someday achieve something that will make it worth it… and if i became terminally ill then i would no longer be able to achieve that goal… so i should end it. maybe i should reorganize my life so that i am not miserable. im not sure thats possible. i had a little early retirement before and i was still miserable. i am miserable dealing with people in this country. everyone is petty, mean and ready to stab you in the back
