I think that the fact how a person feels and what they want moment to moment doesn't represent the person as a whole, and so respecting the wishes of someone when they're in a healthier state of mind is respecting the person as their "true self" and I'm sure when their health improves (provided they're not a hopeless case) and they then thank that no medical centre agreed to letting them die when they were in that frame of mind, is important. And I think the "Experiencing self" Vs "Remembering self" is very relevant. I know not everyone agrees with me here or thinks that my point that we are not who we are in any one given moment, and especially not when we're unwell or "not ourselves", is relevant, but that's my opinion on the matter
