Well, I suppose in the sense of live forever then not able to be killed would be a good analogy. Plus in the case you could not die - at all - would you cope?

Would you cope? That's kind of a crazy question to ask. If you couldn't be killed no matter what you would have no choice but to cope. Or either you would end up running around naked saying " I am the past, I am the future, I am all that has been since my birth and all that will be after your death." Maybe not naked but still just as crazy.

well in that case it is a very hard question, do i think i could cope, yes.
do i think i would enjoy the existence, probably more than i would imagine, for some time anyway.
would i do it?
i honestly do not know, there is so many variables, including the present mindset when one acquired the immortality.
the thing is i already know that i would exchange my body for a cybernetic one when and if it becomes possible and reasonable, again variables.
but there is a very long way from living an ageless life to an immortal one, i actually don't think the human mind can quite grasp the extents of eternal unending life as set forward by the OP.
sure we can come close and maybe we can imagine to some extent what it would be like, but darn i can barely foresee how long next year is gonna feel.
