I have done a fair amount of research. Even in these states its not easy to get approved for the program. First you must have 2 doctors to say that they are certain that you will die naturally within 6 months. Then you have to get or should i say find a doctor willing to write the script. Not that many that will write it. This leaves out all people with mental disorders. Also leaves out people who have very bad physical problems and dieses but are not on deaths doorstep.
I was thinking more on the lines of buying it from someone who no longer needed it.

It's only for the imminently terminally ill. Any assisted death provisions in the US are solely for such cases.

Exactly, shit's still an oppressive bureaucratic nightmare. It's like the good behavior inmates allowed an extra hour outside to watch birds or whatever. So liberated!
That's great that they are starting somewhere. It's too bad that it's not more inclusive and accessible.

They won't even allow it where I live at all, not even for terminally ill. It's so inhumane how N exists yet we are denied that option, having N avaliable would prevent so much unnecessary suffering.

We all had that right to assisted suicide .It was legal to assist suicide before they went through great effort to write laws that made that a crime . These laws making it a crime didn't exist before they passed them and put them in the books.
They put dr Kevorkian in prison in the U.S. for assisting old people in pain or terminal with suicide.
The convicted a man of assisting his wife of age 92 years old in suicide.
They put Kenneth Law in jail for selling SN over the internet.

There are laws in the books that make assisting someone in suicide a crime. These laws didn't exist before they passed them.
imo They are even trying now to criminalize speech like saying this website is encouraging suicide . What they want to do imo is if someone writes a comment on this site or somewhere on the internet they want to say that is encouraging suicide or a crime.
For example if some one writes a comment here telling someone how to do a suicide method they want to say that is assisting suicide also.

That is so so terrible. I can't believe that we as humans can do this to others. It should not be a crime to want to die peacefully.

It is only a crime because it messes up the whole "system" for economic gain in place.
