If the people reviving you are not malicious then you would expect to have the option of dying again unless they don't believe you that your life sucks too much.
Also the psychology of happiness seems to suggest that people adjust pretty well to big life changes.
Unless you are defining malicious to mean "lets me kill myself if I want to," then being revived into a society with similar laws and values as the current U.S. would certainly make it illegal for you to kill yourself. Most of us realize we could do it if we wanted anyway, but a society that can revive you probably has more effective means of enforcing prohibitions. Even now, we already have "chemical castration" for some sex criminals.
Okay, that's a good point. (I assume you meant "defining 'not malicious' to mean 'lets me kill myself...'")
