This article gives me hope (assisted suicide for mentally ill)

[supermario]

Damn I love Belgium. They are sooo progressive. Check out this article where a mentally ill person was able to request assisted suicide from her doctor: https://www.statnews.com/2017/10/26/euthanasia-mental-illness/

I really like the part where the one woman says she was going to ctb on her own until she got approved for euthanasia, then realized she wanted to hold off when she got approved. It really is a huge weight off your shoulders to have that option. That's how I feel now that I have my N.

You've inspired me to try harder to secure N despite all the hoops. As a side note, did you get it from D, and do you intend to test it for purity?

I did get it from D. I do not plan on testing it as I trust the source, I fear opening one of the bottles prematurely would cause the contents to degrade to a point it wouldn't work properly, and I wouldn't begin to know where to get it tested. I inspected both bottles and the seals were unopened and consistent with how veterinary N bottles are supposed to look.

Exactly. I hate feeling like a cornered animal. With choices you breathe much easier and don't act as rushed cause you're ultimately in charge of your fate.

Countries like Belgium and the Netherlands truly get it. They really do. What sense is there other than absolute cruelty and selfishness to deny someone with a terminal physical or unbearable, irreversible mental illness the right to die?
