Say you are at the brink of killing yourself and someone tries to talk you out of it. You’ve already thought about it and your life is not worth living.

What can they possibly say to convince you that your life, the one you have firsthand knowledge of, is worth living? There is that one answer. No one! There is that other answer. Nothing!
