If you were allowed medically assisted suicide, would you do it??

[gardenhouse]

Yes

 

[Hystearical]

I would but it's a fair question to ponder.

There was a young woman slated for euthanasia in Belgium like a decade ago and it seems she changed her mind as the date of her scheduled demise drew closer. I think she said that in the weeks prior she didn't experience any of the intense moments that dominated her life. So it's fair to think that in the face of impending death whether your outlook and attitude towards it might do a 180.

 

[SDB]

100%

 

[aoseno perpetuo]

no, i want to have control over every element of my death, and i would never give such power to any other human being but myself. its the ultimate insult.

 

[froggirl9000]

Bro, me the same. Are you american? Cause i'm from europe and we don't have any free access to firearms here.
Fuck, i was entrusted with a german assult rifle G-3 durning my service in the army for 9 months at the age of 19. If back then i had any idea what a shitty life is awaitings me, there would be no second thoughts,for sure. Listen friend , if you are from europe we can communicate (i don't know, we could organize a one way journey to some undeveloped shithole) Fuck, i hate life. If you are american, could you give me, some useful information about illegal activites in Mexico or Central America. It is real what you can purchase a pentobarbital where ? Here, some info about me : https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/a-32-years-old-failure.241919/ thank you!

Nah, I'm in the UK. I wish I had access to firearms, would make things a lot easier.
Jealous that you got to handle a G3, it's one of my favourite guns of all time.

 

[Catchthebusnow]

Yes, right this instant!

 

[TomTom]

It's legal where I live and I've thought about it but I don't know if they accept young people or if they only accept elderly/sick people

 

[wrapped_in_plastic]

yes absolutely

 

[DoomsdayCTB]

absolutely. I have bipolar disorder and many of us die from suicide anyway. I don't know why bipolar and schizophrenia aren't automatically a part of MAID. we basically have brain cancer.

 

[Bishop]

Yes

 

[PainWorseThanDeath]

Yes, because at least I would be guaranteed success, and the most painless way possible.

My only fear is that something will go wrong when I exit bag, leaving me even worse off than before.

 

[lavenderjourney]

I wish this option were more readily available. So many people would be able to relieve their pain. That release of pain that drifts into euphoric bliss... Yeah, I'd do it.

 

[tomame]

hell yes! would be a dream

 

[Lostthefaith]

I ask this question because so many young people on here say they want to die but are afraid of pain, failing and fear. Assisted suicide would eliminate pain and failing. But what about SI? Could you drink the fatal medication (in Canada i think its done thru IV but you have to pull the lever) knowing you will be dead soon after? No going back. Game over. I've watched many videos on YouTube that have done it. Albeit most were terminal ill, elderly or in chronic pain. Which makes the mental part easier to accept. All were at peace with their decision.

Yes. Without a doubt. I've searched for years and years for a place, a way and nothing. I've looked into legal loopholes. Nothings
I'm not religious. I bothers me that I am denied what I believe is fundamental right, just as birth and taxes, because of something that has its roots in religion

 

[eternallyjanedoe]

Yes! As many times yes as I could say before my breath runs out!

It's such a beautiful and poetic way to go; no pain, no worries, and a full guarantee of a peaceful death.
You get the final desicion, yes, and you drift off happily into the embrace of death! It's like a heated blanket being placed on you while you're suffering from a terrible cold, or being very young and held in the arms of your mother after a long cry.

I wish it was easier to obtain. It's like others say they want to be 'humane' by not allowing this to be available to those who need it, and yet that thought itself is so inhumane! Why do we euthanize other animals, but not humans?

I'm glad the option is still there for those who are eligible, though I can't help but envy them.
I'm unsure of the exact requirements still, but I am probably not eligible due to most of my disabilities not being physical. The ones that are physical aren't necessarily painful in the traditional sense.

 

[seeyoulater26]

Yes

 

[JealousOfTheElderly]

Yes 100%

 

[BlackDoor]

Oh yes. The fear of the possibility of failure and the guilt of inconveniencing whoever finds you to process the body would be resolved. It would be ideal.

What is a 'safe death'? Mentally ill woman asks for assisted dying in Canada

Canada has twice delayed access to medically assisted dying for those with mental illness. Claire Brosseau says she cannot wait any longer and wants the courts to decide.

[apollon]

i definitely would even easier than trying to achieve a successful death myself, i can get a doctor to do it instead

 

[urgent]

Absolutely. I'm trying to find a way to end my suffering now. I wish someone could help me. I'm very ill and think I would qualify if I could travel. My state doesn't have it yet. I keep hoping someone will just have mercy and give me something. I'm to disabled to get anything myself so I don't know have much of a chance. I'll probably die a horrible painful death after suffering in a facility with all tubes, IVs, machines. I wish a caring person would stop the torture.

 

[jackrussell]

yes. i'm still suffering from BIND after having a detox from ativan 6 years ago. i was prescribed it for 10 years. i only get 3 hours of sleep a night.

 

[isthisthingon]

absolutely. I have bipolar disorder and many of us die from suicide anyway. I don't know why bipolar and schizophrenia aren't automatically a part of MAID. we basically have brain cancer.

True, I'd even argue BPD is worse than brain cancer.

 

[GoneTomorrow]

True, I'd even argue BPD is worse than brain cancer.

This. BPD is the absolute worst, and I would 100% accept medically assisted suicide just to get rid of the personal hell it's putting me through every single day.

 

[Shadowsight]

I'd probably cry tears of joy if this options were available to me

 

[MyMomWasMyLife]

I've already replied on this post that I would do it in a heartbeat. This is how I wish it was done (disregard the dialogue as that is separate from the actual visuals I want to show):

 

[TwistedNightmares]

Absolutely I would. The mental anguish I experience daily is by far too much for me to handle.

 

[-Tandem-]

Yeah absolutely.

Yes. I'm terribly sad about it though.

I wish I had lived my life correctly. There was a path laid before me. I wasn't smart enough to see it.

Yeah if I could go back to like 21 I coule fix most of my problems but I can't…i just can't

 

[Raindancer]

Two of the main reasons I haven't is not happy with method as N would have been first choice or OD, and being terrified I could make things worse. So if that was an option, in a heartbeat because it solves almost everything. I probably would be approved with my health issues at the current clinics, but I don't want the hassle of traveling and dying in a strange place. I had my spot already picked out but it is no longer an option so home it will be.

 

[DoomsdayCTB]

We have to become advocates to improve upon this diagnosis. On Reddit, there was some recent research hinting at this (that's where I got it from)
