I really have no idea why so many people think being in a wheelchair is so horrible. Sure its a pain in the ass, but worth dying over? Ha! I do more than most "able bodied" people do.

I will beg to differ (crowd yells cripple fight!).
I also never had thoughts of suicide and I was too accepting of it. So much that the doctors tried to medicate me. But I regress.
The vast majority of people who are not born into it and end up in a wheelchair can not cope. According to the statistics of assorted therapist roughly only 10% off all people will actually deal with it in a healthy way and of that 10% only 5% of them will actually lead a full life with little to no regrets and succeed at life in general. Yes that means in reverse that roughly 90% will either entertain constant thoughts of suicide, perform slow deaths via drugs, drinking or what not, or just give up in general and wait to die.
