Okay, but who wants to live a long life these days?
What a foolish question. You sound young.
I’m 50. I’ve had six heart attacks, a below knee amputation, and I’m on dialysis after my kidneys failed. Life is not easy, and yet I still wish it to go on. I am probably going to die within a decade, and I hate that. I should have 2-3 more, dammit.
Also the years you lose/gain don’t come from the end, they come from wherever you are now. If you’re 30 and start exercising you feel better and younger longer in addition to living longer, the inverse if you decide to start smoking.
Well, here’s the thing. Some people get dementia and others don’t. While I’d prefer not to get dementia, it seems foolish to commit suicide right now for fear that I might be one of the ones that get it.

Yeah, do you want to live long enough to find out if you’ll suffer from senile dementia?

No one is asking you to commit suicide, just to eat carbonara.
A fate worse that death! :)
Sounds like suicide out of fear of death.
