    The fact that you immediately jumped to depression seems like you didn’t even think about the question.

    There is literally no reason to live, we’ve made that all up. That’s not depression, that’s reality. Pushing fundamental questions into a pathological corner is condescending.

      Call me crazy, but typically when someone asks for reasons to not kill themselves, depression is involved. Maybe OP was just starting conversation, but given the question and the increasing rate of people struggling with depression, I thought I’d offer my thoughts. I don’t believe this answer was condescending.
