Do you have the courage to commit suicide in case if terminal disease?
April 10, 2018 at 9:17 am
As someone who does not believe to be exempt of any fate, I have always wondered if I would have the courage to commit suicide in case of a horrible disease such as terminal cancer or Alzheimer.

Suicide has always been seen as a bad thing, but is it when it is done based on a rational decision and not depression for example? As Schopenhauer said, to decide if you live or not is one of the few rights humans have.

What would you do in such situation? Wouls you bear the pain?
