... because that's a great way to lift someone out of suicidal depression.

Not because it would help them, but because you know that feeling when you just wanna DEVOUR AN ENTIRE FUCKING PIZZA because you just feel this rage within you? That's how I feel when I think about suicidal people. I'd punch them in the face because I feel this PRIMAL RAGE. Not that I'd actually eat an entire pizza, that's disgusting. Nor would I actually punch a suicidal person in the face lmao.

You feel like eating a whole pizza when you're mad?

No. You know the thrill you get when listening to a really violent thrash metal album? That's the feeling. The urge to devour an entire pizza, I do mean that literally. Sometimes I'm just sitting around and I'm like RAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and I could just devour an enormous quantity of food. Because I have this inherent, primal, manly urge.

Yeah, Aegon, you know that feeling we all get when you watch investigative murder porn and you just want to put your dick in a blender?

That one.
"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

I do actually do that sometimes. Sometimes the urge to eat will be overwhelming. But then once I'm full, I can go the rest of the day without eating food. Like today I ate my whole days worth of food before 12pm. I probably won't consume anything but drink tea, water, decaf coffee, and almond milk for the rest of the day. It's worked well for me, I absolutely can't stand being hungry.

Getting to know you better, drop dead fred thread.

So, Tree guy, excluding suicide due to a mental process, do others suffering from chronic/terminal disease have the right to end their life?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

If you're literally dying of terminal cancer or some other form of incurable disease that will kill you and there's 0 chance of survival, and you only have a short while to live and are in incredible pain, okay. I'd say that's when I'd be cool with assisted suicide.
