Honestly, I think VAD should be available for EVERYONE, not just if you’re terminally ill. Why should i have to live this stupid shitty life because it will upset someone? I don’t really even have anyone. It’s just me and my cats. They would find a new home. But i have to live this shitty life because… no one will be upset? Fuck this shit.
I have a myriad of mental health issues. Why can’t i die because my life fucking sucks balls? Why should i have to live my life because, uhh… no one… will be upset? I’m afraid to do it myself again, because i could make shit even fucking worse. Why can’t I have VAD?
Yeah, should be some scheduled thing with maybe a few therapy sessions or something first (so people don’t just do it from a random shitty day), but it really doesn’t have to be your problem that others would rather you live. Unless you have kids still depending on you, because that’s someone you’re actually responsible for.

What is the “V” in V Assisted Death? I can’t figure out what the V means.
Probably voluntary or something similar implying consent.
Yup. It’s “voluntary”
