Belgium and Canada (province of Quebec) as far as I know allow it. However, there are a lot of hoops to jump through. In addition, mental illness is not grounds for assisted dying in Canada.any country that does assisted suicide, without one of the requirements being a terminal illness?
This is not true.problems research the countries that make assisted suicide, the requirement and a terminal or degenerative illness that take away the individual's autonomy. none where the individual has depression or deteriorating mental health.
thank you very much for that enlightening comment. what does the institution that does assisted suicide call?This is not true.
In the Netherlands someone whose mentally ill can get euthanasia.
The process takes (much) longer than it takes for someone who is terminally ill or for someone who has a chronical physical illness, but it's not unique at all.
It's just as lawful.
A respected member here received euthanasia on mental grounds this April.
I believe the process took 18 months. Part of the reason it took so long was because they wanted to be 100% sure that his depression wasn't going through a long 'down' period.
I'm Dutch and I have a chronical physical illness. Although I've planned/decided to keep all cards in my own hand (I have N) I know I could get assisted suicide too. I've talked about it with my neurologists and doctors. I have their support and my file speaks for itself but even if I would decide to take the legal route, it would still take something like 6 months. There's a waiting list. Not all doctors are pro-choice and the ones that are, volunteer to assist. For them it's a process too.
That's the difference between the Dutch system and the organizations in Switzerland. There are no ctb doctors. There's no central hub. There's an euthanasia law. Your own doctor is allowed to do it.thank you very much for that enlightening comment. what does the institution that does assisted suicide call?
Do you know if it is possible for a foreigner to request assisted suicide in the Netherlands under these conditions (mental illness)?This is not true.

Thank you very much and stay well.
Thank you so much!Is euthanasia allowed?
In the Netherlands euthanasia (termination of life on request) and assisted suicide are prohibited under articles 293 and 294 of the Dutch Criminal Code.
