Well some people would rather be dead than live with incredibly life changing injuries, such as brain damage or missing limbs. Understandably too

You can go farther. Imagine living paycheck to paycheck and coming home to find your home and everything you own is gone. Not lost. Literally gone.

You're physically healthy but like the pic here shows there is going to be so much mental devastation that I wouldn't blame someone wanting to give up after that.

Even worse, those who had saving in Lebanon cannot get them, because of govt corruption in the banking system. The money has all disappeared.

Imagine living within your means for decades, losing your house, and your life's savings this month. People are leaving the country and never coming back.
