I guess I just figure it would be complicated trying to determine who came to the decision entirely rationally and not due to a skewed view due to mental illness. Or maybe there is something that hasn't been tried yet. I guess I can just see how implementing that could come with some problems. God forbid anyone was ever sort of encouraged/pushed in the direction of making such a decision...which unfortunately in this society I could see people with treatment resistant mental illnesses being maybe indirectly encouraged to choose that so they'll be less waste of resources.
So while I do think people should have the right to a dignified death, rather then be forced to live in unbearable misery/pain...I also could see problems arising with trying to implement it so not really sure what a solution would be. I mean I do not doubt I could come up for a reasonable explanation for why suicide is the logical choice even if in crisis as I can play it off like I am more calm than I am at times so that is concerning.
I mean if I truly got to the point I cannot enjoy anything at all, have no way at all of feeling any better and that is how it would remain then yes I would want the choice and not to be stopped same with terminal illness.
