I will be 40 next year. Humans are expendable; we have to make our own worth. If we don't do that, we end up like I am right now: a year from 40, homeless, broke, in a lot of debt, out of work, failed startup, facing a felony on false accusation.

Life is challenging for me now, and this article directly applies to me. Oh, and there's that thing about being a white male and suicide. Now imagine being a kind of intimidating looking type in a very non white anti trump area.

Tribalism is real. Had I stuck with my tribe early on I'd be more secure. My demise is probable at this time.

I am solid in my desire to self terminate yet lack the ability to overcome fear of death. I stay alive but it's closer than ever. It's almost a humane thing to let me go. I wouldn't wish my brain on anyone.

Good luck all.
