    The previous commentor sounds exactly like all those people who have harassed Zoraya with their bullshit “miracle cures”.

    It had always astounded me that we offer painless, merciful euthanasia to our pets and animals, both wild and domesticated, yet not to our fellow humans, who must suffer until the bitter end.

      It’s the remnants of the religious infestation that still slumbers in the collective consciousness of society that makes madness like that possible.

      There definitely is not a miracle cure, and sending someone random messages is not the way. I definitely agree with you there. Medical Assistance in Death should be more widely available as well. The one point I think is important to clarify is that it shouldn’t be used if there is reasonable expectation of some kind of improvement. In mental health, I think the vast majority of cases are improvable, at least beyond the point of suicide ideation.

      I responded to another comment with some clarifications.
