[willitpass]

any good recommendations for suicide/severe mental health issues documentaries. they intrigue me but some of them are aggressively pro life

I watched a good one on YouTube before following the journey of someone possibly with dignitas undergoing assisted suicide which was very well done, I can't remember the exact name but I'm sure if you searched for those words it would come up. There was also a good one Louis Theroux did about assisted suicide, I find his documentaries good because he never comes across as vehemently opposed to any subjects but more in a curious fashion, I think it was called Choosing Death or something similar.

I am afraid there is not even a single good documentary on the issue... Quite dissapointed actually.

Guess you've seen 'The Bridge'? Kind of the most obvious one probably... 'Real Stories' series on YouTube also quite frequently looks at mental health topics and isn't overbearingly pro-life if I recall.
