gnasher16 30,432 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 It was decriminalised by the 1961 suicide act, you cant get done for it in other words. What use that is in real terms I dont know though! Does that mean before 1961 you could get done for attempted suicide i wonder ?......bit of a bummer having your stomach pumped only to be laying in recovery and be told " right your nicked ".

Francie 6,368 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 I know this wont go down well, but what happened to perservering, the cure could be round the corner, its easy for me to say this cause im not in this man shoes, it seems like the cowardly act to me, i watched my mum die slowly but surely go downhill, an in all those years she didnt complain once, thats true. In a wheelchair, brittle bones, coliac, crohns, leaky gut, shatterd legs an pelvis, cancer. Etc an more tbh i dont know how she done it, i had her out an about all the time she loved it, her mind was there but not her body. Its his choice, if he wants an no man should stop him, but i dont agree with it, but its his choice. Its just soceity going down the toilet, were do you draw the line, should a chronicly depressed person say i dont want to go on, can i kill myself, whos to say he cant, worlds f****d.

peterhunter86 8,627 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 He should be able to make his own choice.if you kept a dog like that you be locked up. I watched a program a few years back think bob hoskins was in it about a bloke who brings his mrs to a country were she could die legaly it was a sad program id hate to have to go through that.

It's completely your opinion but I'd leave out the word cowardly out. It's a bit unfair to give personal digs when someone is at the stage where nothing on this earth is worth the pain their going thru I Don't think there will ever be a situation where depressed people are allowed to kill themselves . So you don't have to worry on that score . Sorry to hear about your relative who was really Ill but pain can be different for different people even on a emotional level Quote Link to post Share on other sites
