If that was true there wouldn't be such a thing as suicide. Suicide is all to real so this is not true.

I know somebody would say that. Ignoring the fact that I don't know anyone who would try suicide, one: it's a damn metaphor. two: it's talking about people who are already dying.

If someone tries to hang themselves or drown themselves and you pull them out, what's the first thing you hear? I wager it's *GAAAAAAAASP*.
That's involuntary.

Also, people who have terminal and painful sicknesses often ask their doctors to "pull the plug".

You people have ruined Strugatsky for everyone.

The point is that it's involantary. No human 'body' wants to die. It's about the whole link between mind and body and ruination. But I'm sure you won't care.

Well, if death was inevitable, and the pain was intense, I probably would try to kill them in the quietest, most painless way possible.

I doubt a syringe full of tubocurarine would be available, so it would have to be something like a morphine overdose administered in stages so as not to cause the body to reject it. I imagine I could improvise a car airbag as a nitrogen narcosis gas chamber, but that would be WAY too complicated.

Shooting is a last option.

Oh god...

Well, if its someone you love, I can hardly even bring myself to answer this. I picked unsure, I haven't been in the situation and don't know if I could bring myself to do so.

Do you mean the pain felt after ravaging sexual encounters?
