In Woody Allen's screenplay for "Annie Hall," a character reflects on their struggles with mental health, specifically mentioning suicidal thoughts. The character states that they were undergoing psychoanalysis with a traditional Freudian therapist, which plays a significant role in their perspective on life and death during that time.

The mention of potentially taking their own life highlights the desperation of their situation, yet the fear of financial repercussions for missed therapy sessions serves as a darkly humorous reason for their continued existence. This contrast captures the complexities of mental health treatment and the sometimes absurd motivations that can keep people tethered to life.
