I do agree that some reasons can push you into selling your bitcoin, but from all those reasons probably having issues with your health, lost of the source of income, and having issues with government are the most particular reasons for someone selling their own savings/bitcoin. In my case as long as it isn't related to health of issues with the government I wouldn't sell my bitcoins and hold it as long as possible.

As for me, Bitcoin is not intended for forever holding as I consider having Bitcoin just like my saving so every time I wanted to sell them due to some important reason, it was there to save me and fill my needs. And OP has that kind of view, they'll never think about taking a loan and making debt but rather use his Bitcoin. May some people saying it was wrong decision but at least he did what is best for him than committing debts which in fact, there is an option for not doing it.

Me too, bitcoin is money, and it is to serve us, there is no reason to keep it forever while our lives are in trouble. If there are difficulties, I will also not hesitate to sell my bitcoins as long as it helps me overcome difficulties and solve problems in life. Bitcoin is indeed a worthy investment and a valuable asset.

Yes you are right about that. I also didn't mean that I'm gonna hold it forever and not try sell it. Right now the only bitcoin I'm holding are the profits that I accumulated over the course of years (of course I tried getting some of my profits from time to time due to some personal needs), but all of those are already considered good ol profit. The main purpose of bitcoin is to be used as a currency and most of us are using that purpose, and it isn't something to be regretful.

We invest and accumulate bitcoins also for the purpose of becoming rich and having a happy and prosperous life. So as long as bitcoin can help us in difficult circumstances and emergencies, there is no reason to hesitate without using bitcoin. To me, bitcoin has value only when we use it, it benefits us, not hold on to forever and never sell. I will accumulate bitcoin whenever possible and will not use it wastefully, but I will sell it every time I need the money, and there is no other way.
