And not that everyone in such a situation does or even should want to be dead.
So, I think in this Terrell guy's case, it's very sad. Because it does not appear that he has some problem that will kill him unless he or someone else helps with the killing part.

Nick Hornby's book "A Long Way Down" is very much on point, and, if the first 100 pages are any judge, very very good.
