What are everyone’s thoughts? Should it be allowed? What about terminal patients? Perfectly healthy individuals? We as a society are becoming more and more progressive. My body, my decision. Why can’t we decide to die on our terms?

It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?
I have mixed feelings on this.
On one hand, it's a slippery slope. How sick is "sick enough" to justify a medical professional actually helping someone kill themselves?
On the other hand, it's hard to sit on your high horse saying that assisted suicide is wrong, when you're not the one miserable 24/7 from a terminal illness. That's something you can't truly understand until you actually go through it, but picture the sickest you've ever been, and imagine yourself that way permanently, knowing it will remain that way until you die. Might change your mind about doctor assisted suicide being wrong.
Thank God for hospice. 10 mg morphine every 2 hours until you slip away.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
