Would you take a medicine to improve daily quality of life if it took 10 years off of your life?

It could be for any reason. Maybe you have a mental illness, maybe it helps you think clearer. Just imagine a hypothetical medicine that magically improves your daily quality of life. Would you take it and lose the last ten years of life, or would you rather suffer and live longer?

How often do people die prematurely out of stress? If the worst excessive stressors are eliminated then you'll still live longer with the pill even when 10 years are subtracted.

With toxins from modern food growing and storage methods being largely estrogenic, then eliminating this excessive estrogenic effect does make you more energetic, as well as prolonging life.

I think about this all the time. And yes I would. During an episode you arnt thinking clear and you're paranoid and you're in constant flight mode amd losing weight.. like 15 pounds a week if you arnt balanced out. You'd die quicker that way. I'd sacrifice 10 years of my life if that means to live the rest stable and I can be fully present for my son
