"Persons with mental disorders who are resistant to evidence‐based treatment can be referred to as patients with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI). Some patients with SPMI develop a strong wish for assisted dying. Switzerland has the longest history of non‐medicalized assisted dying, which is considered a civil right even in non‐pathological situations."


Do you think a time will come when we (chronically depressed people) can simply move to a specific country, become a resident within that country just to have assisted SU for patients who were diagnosed with chronic depression who have clearly been resistant to traditional treatment?

Your thoughts?

I do think it should be an option, but it might never happen, it won't happen soon enough for anyone here.
