Hi,

I have a chronic physical illness (severe M.E) which I'm already unsure if Dignitas (or similar) would accept but I also have a history of mental health issues... I currently have a diagnosis of BPD on my record but this may have been a misdiagnosis and I'm actually on the Autism spectrum.
Without picking it apart too much as it gets complicated:

Does anyone know if Dignitas will flat out refuse someone if they have a BPD diagnosis along with any physical illness?

Similarly would they automatically refuse someone who is Autistic/Aspergers/ASD spectrum regardless of their physical illness?

I can't find any info on Dignitas (or any other assisted suicide organisations) vs someone with a chronic illness that also has Autism so if anyone can shed light I'd really appreciate it.

From my research and I've done plenty. Dignitas will take terminally ill patients or those with disabilities with no quality of life. They won't take you just because you feel suicidal.
ME is a disabilit, I have it. Pegasus are more likely to take me.
Other option is move to holland. They even come to your home to do it.

I believe they will accept those with BPD so long as your quality of life is bad enough as a result and you either can't access treatment, or you have and it hasn't been effective.
