There is a threshold of suffering for entering non-existence. Deciding to take your life is probably the most stressful thing you can experience, unless you're completely numb and apathic. It's like how you'll feel better after a workout than before it. Not everybody wants to do the work.

If people would be certain, that non-existence is better than existence, then even if its super stressful to kill themselves, they would do it, because they would percieve that as a better choice. - Example would be fanatic religious people, who are seeing more meaning in the afterlife, so some of them are 100% willing to die for the greater cause.

But what I see, is that people aren't so confident in that belief, and I also see that people generally give more weight to love and meaning comapred to suffering.
