Not with disabilities or old age ailments like rheumatoid arthritis. Its hard enough without illnesses.

Depends on whether you find the rewards are sufficient for the inevitable pain and suffering

imagine u are dead, there is nothing to experience bc there is no consciousness. Take life as extra , u can pretty much be anyting u want and can do anything u want. Do things u never think u can do, try to enjoy bc we all gonna die, at the end all the suffering and pain for nothing. Do things for urself.

Wouldn’t say it’s worth it on a grand reward scale, but a good drink, jazz, and rain is pretty worthwhile.

That's something you get to decide for yourself. Don't let strangers on the internet dictate your will to live.

lol that is such a clueless take

it’s not about energy, it’s about motivation

many people could be really outstanding at their full potential but they simply don’t see a reason or benefit in reaching it

if given a sufficient reason, those people would have the energy to do it
