I think we are talking about a case where your judgement is not impaired by severe depression. Like you have chronic depression and have suffered for a life time and after a lot of thought in a rational state of mind make that decision. Should it be allowed. Is it ethical to allow it. Kind of like Oregon's law for terminally ill patients. It's a tough issue but I think personally I would like it if I had that option allowed by society. I don't really fear death at all.
