We should have properly regulated ways to do this similar to how Dignitas do it.

Substantial checks and balances, and the person must be able to administer themselves the dose through a glass of water.
If done in this manner I've absolutely no issues with it, obviously there must be this level of substantial checks and balances. |
If Dignitas is the benchmark I'm against it.
Scores of urns containing human ashes have been found dumped in a lake near the Swiss suicide clinic Dignitas.
One estimate puts the number discovered 30ft down on the bed of Lake Zurich at 300 or more.
Very dignified, what ever the reason and I wonder how long it'll be before we have the depressed being put down like in Holland or Switzerland.
Swiss suicide clinic Dignitas is under investigation over claims that it ignored a patient's distressed mental condition to give him drugs to end his own life.
Strict assisted suicide laws in Switzerland state that each patient must be of sound mind and able to understand the consequences of their actions.
But now details have emerged of a patient who was allegedly given a DIY suicide kit prescribed by a Zurich gynaeologist despite suffering from paranoid schizophrenia.
