Most people need help sometime during their life. It has nothing to do with age. People of all ages, young and old, commit suicide.

You are so right, for about a year after my wife died of cancer in 2011 I'd wake up every day PO'd that I was still alive. Probably the only thing that kept me going was cynicism, what if I died and there was nothing, or I couldn't find Gail? As the song says, I just wasn't ready to face that final disappointment. I finally snapped out of it one day when I decided that Gail would not want me to be like this and that it was no way to live. Fortunately, things have been turning around for me over the last year and now I have a new-to-me MH and future travel plans that have been providing a wonderful and positive distraction to my occasionally recurring sadness. So what does age
have to do with it, in another month I'll be 66.
