No one ever chooses to die because of that. That's ridiculous. They choose to die because they are unhappy and/or mentally challenged. In the future I suspect it will be far more unlikely for someone to wish to kill themselves because of those reasons.
*Bold mine*
How could you possibly know something like that with such certainty though? You can't be inside every person's head who's ever lived and died. I worked in a nursing home (a lovely, bright, and lively nursing home. Believe it or not, they do exist!) for two years. There were plenty of generally healthy folk in their late 90's (and even early 100's) who were just...ready. Content to be done. Or, at least they said so, and why would anyone not believe them?
