POST SHTF totally agree with the fact that suicides will go up a lot

I might have just always been lucky, but since I was a kid I always told myself that I would never stay with anything that I didnt like, be it work house or people,...I believed that life was real too short
....and I have always stuck to it,... if I didnt like a job, I looked for another, untill I found one and changed,..I have done it several times,...I have also done the same with houses,..and an ex wife
So, I can say that in my case, there is no reason for suicide, there is always chance for a change,... the problem often lies in staying in [ say a ] job too long,...long enough for that job to become a rut,.. once it gets to that stage its harder and harder to get out,... you have to see the writing on the wall early and do something about it
I believe this is the reason I know have a great house in a great part of the country, and married to the right woman
