I really don't see the difference between the two options here.
If we want to go with how it first happened to Battler in episode 4 though. The dominant question in his mind was "who am I?". We could say losing your identity or your sense of self is one of the losing conditions that can cause de-existence, but for whatever reason losing your identity is different from just giving up or to stop thinking.
You can stop thinking and start again later, but if you lose your sense of self well only someone else who knows what that self is can bring that back.
