Re: Doctor-assisted suicide - February 8th 2015, 07:03 PM

I'm supportive of doctor assisted suicide, but I think there does need to be a criteria for being eligible for such a thing. For example, I don't think doctor assisted suicide should be an option for people who are depressed or are otherwise suffering from mental illness. I think it should be reserved for the terminally ill or those who have a documented illness with no prognosis of getting better that causes a lot of physical pain and possibly psychological anguish. I think the only exception to the "physical pain" rule should be dementia.
