That’s precisely how the debate between myself any my SO was finally ended. The seat stays down now unless in use.

There are multiple reasons why most people don’t shift countries willy-nilly.

Moving, even within the same state is a difficult, stressful, and expensive prospect. Moving to a different country is even more so, and that assumes you have a job lined up when you get there or substantial monetary reserves. Then there are the legal hurdles, which depending on the destination country can be downright daunting. In many countries unless you are a top earner with an in-demand skill-set you are likely to experience significant legal challenges to even achieve temporary residency. And then there are language and cultural differences that can make life difficult once you get there. Unless you have friends/family already in the destination country and/or know the language you can expect it to be rough going for quite a while.

All this would be compounded if you have a family. Not to mention the added difficulty and expense involved with visiting or supporting extended family members or friends back in your original home country after leaving.

Simply put, most people simply can’t move countries whenever the political situation in their home country gets dicey. It’s only after the fighting starts do you see people doing that in significant numbers and at that point they are refugees.

Oh, thanks for letting me know. It appears that I’d inadvertently mangled it. It’s been corrected.

In my second play-through of CP77, I played as a female V just so I could romance Judy. It was great. Even went so far as to decorate V’s apartments with pictures of the two of them together. So when the end came, I was not emotionally prepared for …

While I can’t say I cried, it was probably the closest I’ve come to crying because of a video game.

No

Like a lot of things, the answer is “it depends”. Probably the biggest factor I’ve seen is the willingness to accept their condition and stick with the prescribed medications. The worst cases I’ve seen all involved individuals who either consistently or intermittently refused to acknowledge their condition and take the meds. It usually resulted in some near tragic circumstances that costs them friends, jobs, and the support of loved ones. In one case I know the end result was fully tragic. However, some people who are bipolar have lived mostly normal lives, so not all hope is lost. It just depends on their willingness to deal with their condition head on.
