It's very evil of the pro-lifers who took away guaranteed suicide methods that those in extreme torture can use to escape their pain.
A dog in pain is allowed Nembutal. but a human has to suffer for years . we all die anyway. Every one had the right to escape suffering. but now we are trapped. they stole our right to escape unbearable pain. What's wrong with these pro-life idiots why are they so evil and ignorant? shows that humans can be brainwashed to believe anything even something so ridiculous and illogical that a human has to suffer for no reason and then die anyway as we all will die . That a dog can be allowed to be put out of it's suffering but a human has to to suffer extremely for no reason. so they are just prolonging unbearable pain . the result is the same for all humans , every human will die anyway.
With a painless method like Nembutal a person suffering can take a drink and fall asleep in 5 minutes. but since they banned that a person has to suffer for years and then be tortured to death anyway. either way we will die. the difference is that with a painless suicide method you skip over extreme pain and extreme suffering. the result is the same Death for all , non-existence forever for all no matter what.
Where are you located. You might be eligible for assisted dying depending on your diagnosis.
I reside in the US.
I do wish that they took MAiD more seriously here, but I believe its only for patients that have a limited time left, and not so much for those with lifelong injuries like this. I could be wrong, and I really wish that I was, but I'm doubtful. We seem to have strict laws surrounding that here, despite some states having it in place for the elderly. I feel like this falls into a sort of grey area that hasn't been addressed by our healthcare system yet... although, I'm hopeful that it will be someday, even if its not for me. I never understood why its preferred to keep people alive in the state that I'm in. It really confuses me, but I'll stop complaining about it.
Thank you for the suggestion, though. I'm not opposed to flying out of the country to somewhere that would, but again, I'm not sure if the pain alone is enough to be qualified. :(
I'm sorry for spreading my misery here, I just really need help with either SN or a country that would put me down in the understanding that I can't function in this state anymore.
I'm definitely more afraid when not given the merciful option of something similar to MAiD.
I just wanted to add that I'm so sorry that you're going through something similar, pthnrdnojvsc. Its definitely messed up with the adamant pro-life mindset that seems to be the majority of people out there... Not having freedom of autonomy is a depressing thought in and of itself for me. So, if anything, I just want to say that I understand as much as an internet stranger can.
