like if i asked if you would rather be tortured for 1 hour or just killed painlessly, most people would probably do the torture since an hour isnt that long compared to losing the rest of your life.
but how about a day, 3 days, a week? whats your limit?
id have to say that i honestly have no fucking idea what my limit is

Honestly you cant know your limit until you hit it.
I suppose I can concretely say that my "id rather just die point" is when my body will be physically unable to recover. Like if they pulled my legs off or broke my spine to make me a palegic. Or if they start fucking with my brain, destroying certain centers, keeping my cognition intact but destroying motor abilities or speech. I could handle living without an arm of having one prosthesis but when it comes to the point where I will be a vegetable I would prefer to just die.

Just being nauseous makes me want to commit suicide. Fortunately I almost never get sick, at most a mild cold/fever/flu, whatever it is, for a few days a year.

Yeah, hard to say. I think the cognitively aware vegetable thing would definitely do it for me, I go nuts just sitting at a bus stop for like 20 minutes without a phone. Every time I get on an airplane for more than an hour or so flight I try to work out some way to knock myself the fuck out (booze or a benzo or not sleeping for a day or two before) because I can't stand just sitting in a chair doing nothing. If I was stuck in a bed for the rest of my life or something I'd wish I were dead.

Physical torture...... I hate that. It probably explains my hatred for that Hostel movie... someone chained up to a chair with his arm behind his back as some rich, wealthy motherfucker picks up a chainsaw to torture you. I hate that movie. Eli Roth, I hope you die.
