It takes a ton of energy to constantly wear the mask of wellness. Obviously the sick don't want others to worry, ask questions, get involved. If one puts all of his or her energy into basic self-care and acting well, how much energy does one have left to work on recovery?
also I'm pretty sure suicide would nullify any kind of life insurance policy, but that's not important
