That's also the thought process that makes people come through with suicide.

Are you speculating, or is there a source for this? I'm genuinely curious

I can relate. Don't forget that there will be moments that make it worthwhile.
Negative consequences are one important class of reasons not to do things. Positive consequences exist, too.
Sorry if this is annoying. I hope it might help anyone that is down this path.
Antidepressants also sometimes give people the get-up-and-go to commit suicide. But in general it's good to have motivation to do things.

Say what you want about committing suicide, at least it's going out and doing a thing.
But does not lead to long term improvement in your ability to do so.

Well you know what they say, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again :)

Is this supposed to be a joke?

I take it you are supposed to be the dark humor police?
