Euthanasia could had prevented so much suffering.

[FuneralCry]

If there was the option to be euthanised it could had prevented so much futile, unnecessary suffering in this dreadful, torturous existence and the fact that it's not an option is just horrific extreme cruelty to me, there needs to be the option of a painless guaranteed death in this reality where there is no limit as to how much agony one can feel, there is no compassion towards suffering humans with the suffering and torture of existing seen as to force and prolong no matter what, it's all so terrible.

 

[ThroughTheLight]

Yeah I completely agree. People seem to think that suicidal people are just "not in their right mind" and that "it all gets better". But they just don't understand that depression or other mental issues are pathologies that can be permanent. And regardless, we should be able to do what we want with our own bodies. If we don't own our own bodies, then who does?

 

[wham311]

Yep. Yep.

Some are even against euthanasia for the terminally Ill, E.g. Stage 4 cancer. I will never understand that.

Usually there reasons are to do with religion or extremely uptight moral values regarding suicide.

So ready for that option

Fanatics of life. Life is the only thing you have, they say. Even if a vegetable man lives, there is no euthanasia. Let him suffer. They're cruel and selfish.

Agreed. We have MAID here in Canada but unfortunately mental illness doesn't qualify, but apparently that's changing in 2027. Too far away for me

Lucky guys...

But I feel you, in terms of 2027 being too far away, if you wish to die much sooner than that.

I just saw a documentary about some young guy from Canada who had some mental condition that caused him enormous physical pain. I forget what his name is, but apparently his case is very well known. He ended up CTB in a hotel room, but they didn't say how.

His name was Adam Maier-Clayton. His story was beyond heartbreaking. He was a young super fit guy who had a crazy neurological illness. This was back in 2017 and he was able to get his hands on some drugs but i don't know what. I have a hunch that is was N.

I went back and did some reading on it. You might be right about it being N. Watching that documentary was gut wrenching. Life can be so fucked up.

Tbf in the case of the assisted dying bill I'm the UK people tend to be against die to fears based on how the government acts it will have safeguards removed and disabled people will have assistance halted to push them towards it, its what happened in Canada, you can't trust any government to not see an opportunity to save money

 

[Alexandra_]

Yes, you are right. Euthanasia is available to very few of us and that is sad. I would have gladly undergone the procedure of euthanasia many years ago, but instead I continue to suffer day after day

I think it has nothing to do with religion per default but with capitalistic values. The ill bring more money and jobs for the living than the dead people. For example in germany the whole medical system is since many years nothingelse than parasitism, they need ill people and they actively generate more with their breeding stations, breating assisted machines, IVF investments, sperm banks, pharmacy (drugs with many side effects that will increase vulnerable children too) and virus experiments (corona). They act like a big cancer but are part of a bigger cancer-like organ. The whole system is build on creating needs and abusing the weak people or animals for the wellbeing of the psychopaths so that they can buy cars, house, doctors titels/education, prcstitutes and so on.
The people who work in the health industry are mostly very psychopathic people who give a shit about others, they just want to have something to gossip about and abuse. That's what they are. I smelled this as a kid too from the female and male adults who had to do with us children as I was in kindergarten or fresh in school. They have not really a human soul imo.

For them in life it is important to breed and get the fake achievements in life. The one real achievement to burn everything down what they created is seen as ill ofc by them. People who are part of the system are the problem of the world and abusers and the reason why people suffer.

Is it in canada free to get assisted suicide drugs just like getting a prescription for a drug from doctor when you are have a real painful diagnosis?

I just wish it would be available like shower gel or ad cards. I would be long gone if I could get nebutal easy and cheap.

i think about this all the time. every state of content i feel is always temporary, i more often feel depressed and suicidal than i do like i have a point in living. i've felt this way since i was a young child. i must've been about 8-9 when the thought really became overwhelming, but i remember thinking about death before that, too. i've been medicated for a year and for a while i thought it saved my life, but i always come back here in the end. even when i'm not here i don't see a future for myself. i'm just a ghost floating uselessly through the world waiting for my time to finally return to the afterlife.

Yeah I understand and relate to what you're saying. For about a couple of years, there hasn't been a single point in my life where I preferred existence to death. The best I've ever felt during this time has usually been nothingness. I haven't been depressed for as long as you have, though. I'm sure that must have been really hard.

I don't really have any friends in real life too, partly due to social anxiety. People in real life are just so different to me; they would never understand wanting to die every day. I always think I wasn't made for life. Like I'm not supposed to be here. Anyway, I'm sorry you've experienced so much pain. I hope it gets better for you.

 

[NellyGoes]

I agree and think that the suffering and trauma for loved ones could also be greatly reduced with more options of legal euthanasia available.
Just the fact that it's available (where it is), has led to many mentally ill people wanting to hold off or reconsidering.


This is so powerful (hope it's allowed to link here):



I can also agree that it may not be the answer for every case. And that society shouldn't jump quickly to just "put anyone down". Sometimes it may just be a temporary situation. Or in many cases the person could be helped. Every case would need to be looked at individually.

Overall, I feel that in a ton of suicidal cases simply our various social systems (health care system, educational systems, the destructiveness of social media, the systemic disadvantages for minorities, economic capitalism, etc) are failing people. The systems need to be fixed for people to A) want to live and B) be able to live healthy, happier lives.

No matter what method is aviable for you and euthanasia is nothing but a very painless method, you still have to overcome your survival instinct.

I think many people would be able to overcome their SI if they knew the method was 100% reliable and 100% painless
