I know it might not be peaceful. It's not for everyone. The guarantee of death is too appealing to me. I've had too many failed attempts. I'll be trying to get approval for both physical and mental health disorders. This is what I need. I can't put it off any longer. I dread the process, but I'm looking forward to the end result.

If you're not a Canadian Dutch or Belgian citizen only private Swiss organizations are an option and they are both expensive and highly restrictive.

Do you happen to know how much the Swiss organizations cost? I might be able to afford it. Most places seemly to be fairly restrictive. That was to be expected.

10-11,000 Swiss Francs. But note, very difficult if you're under 50 (the law only requires you be over 18 but in practice this is different) and without any clear medical evidence of suffering. (ALS, MS, cancer, quadriplegia, for example). And more recently, because of bad press (although this is not required by law), if your parents are still alive they would likely need to be notified ahead of time. (I'm not saying they need to consent, per se, but they are trying to avoid future PR and legal problems).

Why are people under the misconception that this is a viable or accessible option? For anyone but a rare few this is not even worth trying. The criteria for consideration is very stringent....rightfully so but even in the rare instance one may be considered it takes alot of time,money and a huge amount of medical documentation and physician sign off. As soon as mental health is brought up that is almost a guaranteed decline. Very few countries even have this available and if you are not a resident than that's a whole nother issue. Otherwise these places would be booked out for years.

Seems possible.

I don't mind the time, money, and medical documentation. I want a guarantee of death. I cannot have anymore failed attempts. I know I deserve the best possible chance of a peaceful death. Euthanasia is my best hope. It's the best option for me with all things considered. All of us are looking for an escape. Are we not? Everyone will have a method that works for them. There's no need to pigeon-hole people into whatever option is trending at the time. No method is one size fits all. All of us are unique individuals. What works for you might not work for me. What works for me not might work for you. That's okay. Welcome to life. I never said assisted suicide was accessible. I believe that it should be accessible in 2024 and maybe that's what you misinterpreted.
Nowhere is fast and nowhere is easy.
I know that it's not going to be fast and easy anywhere. I was asking if any of them were faster and easier than others.
