The Psychological and Philosophical Implications of Longevity and Immortality
The pursuit of longevity and immortality may be intertwined with underlying psychological complexities and philosophical ponderings. Individuals advocating for longevity may face challenges in basic human experiences like relationships and procreation, hinting at deeper psychological issues. The desire for immortality often conceals melancholy and a yearning to hold onto what has been lost, thereby raising questions about the true essence of being and the inevitability of death. The notion of living forever becomes perplexing when considering the reality of outliving loved ones.

Immortality, though alluring, is unlikely to resolve the fundamental existential dilemmas that individuals face.
