I think it's worse the more one perceives that they have to lose. Living in fear often leads to arrested development, thus no changes in perspective necessary to break free of the vice. The desire to hasten death generally comes from a place of helplessness and despair. Giving up is a personal choice and a right, I guess. But I'd rather find other things to do.
