Well I’m already 62 going on 63. Now that I probably have a new boyfriend, I would like to live as long as possible, sending as much time with him as I can. Hopefully I’ll live into my 90’s.

Your comment reminded me of this comedy bit by Stephen Wright I saw a long time ago. I linked directly to the relevant part, it’s about a minute long…

I’m not concerned about when I die so much as I am concerned about remaining independent into old age. I’d rather die at 70 of a heart attack but am independent up to that point and able to take care of myself, rather than live to 100 but unable to do anything.

My grandmother lived to 90, she had a helper that visited her house but she lived independently in her house right up until the end. That sounds good for me.

I agree that death is an instant but i meant no prolonged distress of dying.

Yeah, I know what you mean, but your comment reminded me of that bit and made me laugh, I wanted to share it.

I agree with you, I don’t want a long protracted death either, I alluded to that, but didn’t directly say it, in my comment under the video.

I want to be independent, then die instantly, like a heart attack that kills me while sleeping.

I don’t want a protracted death either but I would prefer some warning so that I have the chance to say goodbye to people and make sure my affairs are in order.

I need to make a will, I keep putting it off. I will inherit my parents house, but since I don’t have kids of my own I plan on leaving everything split evenly between my cousins kids.

Would be happy to check out at 60. Anything more wouldn’t be ideal. I need the rest

Upload my brain to the cloud before I die so I can live forever there!

Like in that Black Mirror episode.

I don’t want to die, however I do not want to live in depression forever, someday our planet might not be able to support human life
Living forever in misery is worse than dying

I don’t want to bring you down but the average age for a Scizophrenic male is 59 and the average age of a schizophrenic femal is 63 if I remember right

Don’t know age… but won’t see myself in a care home. Experienced too much turmoil in my life, and each day is a real battle. The meds help, but I don’t know. Would love to pass in a beautiful landscape in nature and not in some house, that is a wish. Yes also had my made up my testament multiple times. I think it is best when one knows when one dies, so can be prepared. Everything else seems too random for me. Maybe control issues… but oh, passing on a sunny day in nature would be my preference. Who knows, science is getting better, maybe they find a cure against dying.

Some times I would like to die right now. Other times I would like to live to my natural end. I am already 49. I don’t have that much time left anyway.

I was gonna give you a like until you said A cure against dying.
Like a longevity pill? Well, when your organs shut down, you’re done.
