One day back in '07 I stopped breathing. Total respiratory arrest. I got in my truck and drove five blocks to the nearest hospital. They did a tracheotomy on my while I was awake and lying on the ER waiting room floor. 

I could have given up and suffocated right there at home, but I don't do that.

My point is that 'Giving up' is clearly a term that carries an unnecessarily overloaded connotation that attempts to allude to some fact that stopping living is necessarily bad in all cases when actually such a fact does not exist as it depends entirely on the particular case in question.

Okay, let me try it this way: In some cases giving up life can be like giving up smoking--a good idea.

Sure, it was a good idea for you to not give up... but don't generalize and moralize by projecting your own personal preferences onto others.

I don't want to die either. And I did try to kill myself and yes I am glad I didn't succeed. But some people do want to die and some people aren't glad that they failed and are still thinking of ways to kill themselves. And that's fine. In many ways my failed suicide attempt was actually the second best thing that ever happened to me. Second only to being born.

If you try to put words in my mouth you will lose fingers, guaranteed.

If you always falsely insinuate words I never actually put in your mouth, whenever I merely interpret your position based on your own poorly articulated expression of your aforementioned position, you will always end up lying there looking like an unthinking twat, guaranteed.
