I want to make the distinction between being "allowed" to commit suicide and going to a medical facility that would help you end your life. What a lot of people are saying is that if you want to end your life, it should be legal--no matter what the reason--for a medical facility to prescribe you the requisite drugs, and maybe even if they denied you this, they would be violating your bodily autonomy.
I believe you have the right to die, but facilities/doctors should have the right to refuse.
Should a person have to be 18 before they can legally make the decision to kill themselves? Do they need parental permission?

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
