    There’s a guy in our town with no arms or legs. Gets around on a skateboard. Shot himself in the woods during winter but was found and given medical attention. But not before he lost all 4 limbs to frostbite. I’ve never spoken to him. Seems to have a pretty positive disposition given his circumstances.

    Also have a bro whose gf slit her wrists in the tub. She survived. Hella trauma all around. Still on the waiting list for surgery to fix her hands years later.

    Had a total karen of a neighbour once…Hard not to be callous cuz she was genuinely unpleasant to interact with but found out from my roommate that several years back she came home and found her son had hung himself in the closet at like 17. Who knows if she was nicer back then but clearly permafucked her mentally. She didn’t even move out. She kept living there.

    Dying peacefully via MAID is certainly less traumatic to everyone else.
