      I think the main argument against that is that if someone is going to follow through with it either way I’d much rather them do so in a painless way with a medical professional and that allows family and friends time to process. Obviously there should be requirements like therapy and stuff first, it shouldn’t be the first option presented, but if a person wants assisted death due to a mental illness that will cause them to suffer the rest of their life I don’t think that should be treated much differently than a person wanting assisted death due to a physical illness that will cause them to suffer the rest of their life.

      Personally I’d never encourage suicide, but I also don’t think its morally wrong, and I think it is morally wrong to stop it by force. At the end of the day, people have bodily autonomy, no matter how tragically they use it.

      That’s the law in all countries that allow euthanasia, as far as I’m aware.

        It’s definitely not. I distinctly remember a thread from a year ago about a young woman killing herself through euthanasia purely because of mental illness and a bunch of people on here supporting it.
