My position from the start has been that assisted suicide, if it is to be allowed at all, should only be allowed for people with incurable physical pain. You can find multiple different comments of me saying that in this thread.
Wow. Thank you so much for telling me you think that suicide is the only answer to my problems. That's a very reasonable and normal thing to say to someone you've never met.
Showing your real colors. You people just want people with mental illness to kill themselves so we'll be out of your hair. Go fuck yourself, asshole.
Completely writing off whatever progress I've made while knowing precisely jack shit about my journey. What the fuck is wrong with you to think that's ok?
I think your argument that it's OK for people to suffer because they might get better some day is awful. What if they don't get better? What if it gets worse? Why is this anyones business except the affected persons?
The fact that you battled mental shit is just a display of survivorship bias and doesn't mean shit IMO.
Fuck off. The only reason I didn't block you was to give you a chance to realize you said something incredibly fucked up and apologize. Your attitude is a perfect example of why I'm opposed to this garbage and has only served to validate my position, which I now am more convinced of than ever. Blocked.
