I think people should be allowed to end themselves only after professional help has been sought and viable alternatives have been exhausted. It's easy to lose hope and give up on life but many times one can get back to a normal life with proper support and love. Many of you who have and are suffering from suicidal tendencies and depression will understand that how easy it is to give in to those urges to just get it over with, if the decision rested solely upon yourself without any loved one to support you through that phase. And it is for this reason I don't think people should be allowed to decidedly end their lives by themselves without professional guidance.
