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

[ThisUnrest]

Yes. It's uncivilized that this option is not open to everyone.

 

[lonergirl_26]

That is exactly how assisted suicide works. They give you the medication and you self-administer it.

Oh really? I had no idea whoops. I just assumed that it was done by like a medical professional

yeah the latter one is called euthanasia

 

[dearlydeparted44]

In a heartbeat.

 

[onedayillbok]

I am almost 40. My last attempt I knew what I was doing, and I was so content with my decision. I do feel vaguely bad for the negative impact CTB will have, and assisted would limit that. But. Im ready to CTB. I am done with this existence.

 

[SleeplessAndSad]

Yes i would

 

[bl33ding_heart]

I would 100% do it, it's much more simple and pain free then any self assigned methods.

 

[LonelyPrince]

If time passes and life doesn't get any better I'd choose it in a heartbeat. Yes.

 

[medinjured521]

I am 40, so not necessarily part of the "young" crowd. However, with both if my previous attempts, I was very calm and did not hesitate. If I could have the opportunity to have a supervised, sure fire method, hell I would probably be excited to die.

What were your attempts

 

[itsgone2]

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.

 

[bellaisdonewithlife]

Gas or nothing (meaning natural death when the time comes).

CTB while under general anesthesia should be a human right. We were brought here without consent.

 

[gardenhouse]

Of course

Yes. It's uncivilized that this option is not open to everyone.

ive been thinking about this all day and it looks like this thread is a relevant place to put my thoughts. its so unfair. how do we not have the right to peacefully die? why does someone else have to evaluate and validate our suffering to get this privilege? if we dont get their approval then we are left to fend for ourselves with painful and sometimes unreliable methods that can lead to even more suffering. tbh im not sure of the cost of assisted suicide but if its anything outrageous then thats just another layer of privilege. i just imagine the amount of people who would take the opportunity of a painless death if accessible. i dont have a problem with humanity dying out but i guess thats because im not some powerful person with the ability to control and benefit from it. im just another disadvantaged person suffering.

if its not obvious, id do it in an instant.

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.

Only if it was like really passive.like a doctor writing a script for seconal with instructions etc but not at a facility. Where they do it for me. Nahh

 

[inpainnosleep]

With all my current health and mental health problems, I'd sign up this second. Never thought I'd say this even 6-7 months ago. All the health issues are adding up on top of the mental health and what is probably protracted benzo withdrawal issues, and I potentially have a long life ahead of me. Makes me sad, because I did want to live but don't see a way out any longer.

 

[Out_Of_My_Head]

I would. One of the reasons that I don't do it now is because I don't have the energy to get my final affairs in order, and perhaps they would help me with that. I also don't like the idea of a relative having to identify me with half of my head gone. Not being able to discuss it with anyone is just making things worse. I didn't ask to be here, so why does it have to be so difficult to leave?

What channel are the videos on?

 

[dust-in-the-wind]

Just search "assisted suicide" on YouTube and a bunch will show up

I'm not sure. I probably could at some point. Maybe not today, but probably before 2030 ends I would be ready to pull that lever.

I fucking need it now my body is failing
