I’m convinced if/when I go and I suspect probably in 10-15 years I will definitely do it, I want to be surrounded by medical professionals, in case something goes wrong. Plus they have the best meds to help you in your “passing.”
Thanks to the diligence and hard work of unsung heroes here in Canukistan, we have Maid (doctor-assisted euthanasia) now and over time it’s gradually become more liberal and accessible. Hopefully they’ll stick to their promise of allowing Maid for the mentally ill as well in 2027…but if one has any major medical issue, then you’re set.
There was a time I was afraid of dying or saw it in some sad, emotional context…but now I’m totally ready for it. I recently had a health issue, its sorted out now…but I didn’t care if I died or not at the hospital…living is more of a ‘chore’ if anything. The only ones who suffer are the people you leave behind.
I’m still hoping to pull off a “Hail Mary” to make up for all the great things I missed out in life, but the older I get the less likely it feels I’ll manage to pull it off. If I do then I want to have about 5 good years to enjoy the remainder of my life.
If my health remains ok and I find a wonderful significant other in my life, then I’ll keep going…but this life is not for me…at least in its current state. Some people get lucky and find success, some are born rich and have an amazing/happy life.
I did everything I could to try to achieve the same thing, but it didn’t work out-seems to be my fate but partly I take blame for putting myself in this situation…I did have some rare chances to improve things but I missed out.
Anyways I meant to suggest there are some countries that offer Maid to outsiders, if its not available where you live. Certainly many people have done the DIY way (ie-suiicide), but it comes with major risks, if you don’t have a foolproof plan.
Fortunately for me, I no longer have to consider that option. I have a couple of health issues that I’m sure will make me an easy candidate should I choose Maid one day.
I’m really not living for much anyways-I realized my family is crap…even the people I thought I was close with…and I’m losing my appeal to the opposite sex as I age.
So the window on a ‘good life’ is closing for me…in about 5-10 years, unless I become successful, there won’t be any reason to keep chugging along as I am now.
I loathe the idea of being a wage slave for another 15 years…and getting my freedom when I’m a useless old man…they say they might reverse aging in 20-30 years…but I have my doubts.
If they do, then I’ll have a second chance maybe (if it’s affordable)…but I’m not holding my breath. I would like to see where humanity goes in the future but it’s not worth living if I’m not rich at that point. Ok I’ll stop rambling now.

There has to be a solution. Or something. Talk to me…
