tpfkar Not all individuals who commit suicide had mental illness, and regardless of that, mental illness with bleak prospects of recovery is a good reason to commit suicide. Why should something that one is doing for themselves and only for themselves (to spare future suffering) have to satisfy anyone else's acceptable justifications for that action? And why should someone like you get to be the arbiter of what degree of suffering someone should have to endure just to have a mere chance at some speculative and nebulous future benefit? A good reason to commit suicide is any reason that the individual has carefully considered, and should not have to be validated or sanctioned by religious people who are terrified of facing up to their own mortality. They can't practically be stopped if they are mentally competent and don't trivially make scenes involving others. But we have a duty of helping the deranged and not sanitizing them out of existence, especially on the back of the desire for all sentient life to end. And if society wants the fairest possible state of affairs, that would mean no humans and no society.Suicide is not a criminal act in many jurisdictions. Therefore, it makes no sense to criminalise the assistance of a lawful act and there are no other comparable examples in which one can be prosecuted for assisting someone to act in a lawful manner.
