I know how he feels...
There have been many times where I wished I never existed, yet at
the same time, I always believed that comitting sucide is the wrong
way to go about doing things. If you sucide, everyone's just going
to see you as a big fat coward, and since I'm a Christian, even
after suciding, I'm still going to have to answer to the big one up
there.
On the other hand, if you never existed, life would just go on as
normal except without you. No one will ever think of what would
happen if you existed. You'd go back to the nothing you were,
before you were born, free from pain and suffering, simply because
you don't exist anymore. No longer will you have to be hurt any
longer, nor will you have to worry about being judged by God
anymore, as your soul doesn't exist. No more worries, no more pain,
and you don't feel anything anymore.
To me life hardly is simply a suffering, and why would anyone want
to live when it simply causes you to suffer? Too bad it's not
possible become back the non-existant being you used to be. You've
been created, and your stuck in this world. Try to make the best of
it.
