(mom's face when)

A lot of normal people have never felt severe mental pain. I know this because I was depressed for a decade and thought things could not get any lower. Then I had a psychotic episode and realized my prior depression was the tip of the iceberg, and resisting suicide was an actual effortful challenge.
It changed my opinion on suicide and torture completely. I used to think any form of existence was a gift, even if your existence was something like hell. Now I know this is not true and there are many fates worse than death.
Is having children immoral? Eventually one of your descendants will suffer a horrible fate. The worst you can imagine.. Maybe a great great great grandchild. You are technically responsible. Do all the happy lives you caused make-up for this one horrible life? I don't know.
