end it all

Take one's life

End it all means to commit suicide.

The phrase is a euphemism that avoids naming the act directly: After the bankruptcy, he considered ending it all.

It can also be used hyperbolically to express dramatic frustration: If I have to sit through another three-hour meeting, I'm going to end it all.
