Should Die And Die?

Assisted Suicide/ Euthanasia is wrong and should not be allowed to be a law. Families shouldn’t have to go through that pain of their family member killing themselves because they hate the pain they are going through. The pain will go away with time and there is medicine for any kind of pain. There are some people who believe that there should be a choice for people who are in pain and they should have that choice because they want what they think is best for themselves. However, there are people who take Assisted Suicide/ Euthanasia to the extreme and people who “have pain” use it and they use it for the wrong reason. Many people don’t think this is a necessary reason for killing yourself. Studies show that there is a great amount of people who suffer from pain or depression that commit suicide(Why Assisted Suicide). Dr. Eli Robbins found that 47% of those committing suicide were diagnosed with schizophrenic panic disorders and

Many individuals agree with the concept of euthanasia. They argue that assisted suicide helps patients perish with dignity. A physician 's job is to relieve pain from their patients, but they cannot do that if there is no cure. The only way to relieve their pain is to give them lethal drugs if they want it. Assisted suicide also respects individual autonomy,

Many people would argue that it’s okay to end your life or someone else’s life, if they do not have the possibility of getting better and are terminally ill. Another reason is that maybe they have a mental illness or are a harm to themselves and others. On the other hand, some people believe that life has value and great worth and that being euthanized takes away that value in having life. There is much argument and debate over whether or not Euthanasia is ever justified. At the end of the day, it’s based on what a person believes is right. Everyone has the right to believe what they want to. However, Euthanasia can never be justified because it makes people believe that life is not worth living if you are terminally ill, deformed, in a coma, have a disability, feel that you are a burden to someone, in unbearable pain or have the right to commit suicide. No matter how bad life gets, people should know that life is always worth living. When someone consents to being euthanized or having someone else be euthanized, they may miss out on memories and life’s joys. There is a lot of pain in life that people have to deal with, but that does not mean that anyone has the right to decide that they or anyone else should die. This also does not give anyone the right to inject drugs into someone in order to kill them peacefully. It doesn’t matter if you are just trying to help

Suffering is a horrible thing. Lying in agony and pain because of a disease or sickness is completely dismaying. Sensing death in the air may be the single-most fearful emotion someone could feel. Many people are against euthanasia or assisted suicide because it seems morally and religiously wrong. Those against the issue feel God alone decides who lives and dies. However, keeping patients alive on machines is completely unnatural or artificial even. Euthanasia or assisted suicide, is ethical due to the fact everyone is guaranteed civil rights under the 14th Amendment, ill or competent people should have the right to choose to be euthanized and if deliberate killing takes place outside of self-defense, protection

Why do people disagree with the euthanasia procedure? The reason for this lies in ethics. Of most religions people practice, death is thought to be the worst punishment possible. If death is the worst punishment, then suicide is thought to be a sense of punishment undeserved while you are in pain already because of a disease/sickness.

People say that assisted suicide is much better for patients because it is faster and more efficient. Some may even you the word “cleaner”, literally and politically. Though assisted suicide is the patients’ choice, it still leaves a big impact on the family and friends left behind. Some may even believe that the name is tarnished after the person is dead and gone. When death happens, people aren’t going to think about all the good memories and accomplishments a person has made in their lives, they are only going to think about how many pills they took to die or how big the needle was that was injected into their friends’ body to aid in the death of their family member or friend. Physician assisted suicide is preferred because no one wants to suffer in the last days of their lives. In 45 states, assisted suicide is in fact still illegal. So many people suffer until the end. It is good in some cases because when people become terminally ill, they tend to commit suicide in a more violent way. No one would want a person to take their own life in a horrible way like slitting their wrist, so why not let them die in peace. People should be able to die

There are many arguments in favor of Physician Assisted Suicide. Many illnesses like certain types of cancer, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and ALS may result in slow agonizing deaths. Many patients decide to use physician-assisted death because it relieves them from a tremendous amount of pain and suffering. A patient knowing that they’re going to die and that the pain is only going to get worse causes them to choose this decision. There’s no reason in letting a human suffer until they finally give out. “When death is the only way to relieve suffering, and inevitable regardless, why not allow it to come in the most humane and dignified way possible?” (Bender 21). Another pro is that health care costs are reduced. Medical care

The most common reason people support physician assisted suicide is empathy. Since terminal illnesses are usually painful, people feel that they should have the right to stop the pain immediately. In reality, current technology allows the pain to be eased and correctly trained physicians should be able to make the pain as bearable as it can be. Better palliative care is what patients should be asking for and receiving instead of an immediate ticket out of life. Supporters also believe that physician assisted suicide allows for the patient to experience a well-planned and

Some think it’s a good thing to have this be legal in the states so their family members/themselves don’t have to worry about suffering everyday of their lives. Only 5 out of the 50 states allow physicians to go through with this to end this patient's suffering, the states are Montana, Oregon, Vermont, Washington State, and California (euthanasia.procon.org). However the only reason Montana is accepting it is because it was a court decision. Some of the pros are; they will stop suffering, it will lessen the amount of heartache the family has to go through since they of course chose to have this done to stop suffering, they would get the treatment they wanted to do, it lessens the financial responsibility on the family (connectusfund.org). Of course there are many more pros of this topic but that was just to name a few, 75% of people in the United States say yes to physician assisted suicide, some say it should be legalized around the globe so people who are suffering from a severe illness have the right to choose what they want to do from that point on, whether they want to stay alive or die, they should have a right to die with dignity

Physician-assisted suicide has been a topic discussed since the beginning of modern medicine. Any topic that involves someone’s life and decisions that they may make about it usually becomes controversial. Physician-assisted suicide is an end of life option where people can voluntarily request medicine to end their life (Death With Dignity). There are many different opinions about the topic, and some people believe that it should be illegal because of the fact that it’s suicide. Also, many people’s religious or spiritual beliefs inhibit them from supporting this idea. Physician-Assisted Suicide should be legal because people should have control over their lives, there are many requirements to meet, and making it illegal has not stopped people from practicing it.

Some people believe that physician assisted suicides are necessary. They are for it because it puts people out of their misery. That group of people would most likely come from the ones who wish to commit suicide upon themselves. They see it as a sign of relief for them, especially if they are suffering from any serious disease. Others could also want to do it because they are in deep depression. They also need help from a physician, which they believe would be more “safe” because they won't be physically hurting themselves. Also, some physicians believe that's the right thing to do because they are basically helping them get rid of the pain with drugs to commit suicide.

In fact there aren’t any valid reasons for physician assisted suicide to be legal. “There Is No Justification for Legalizing Euthanasia,” by Peter Glover, directly discusses why physician assisted suicide is wrong and gives statistics. Two of the main reasons people are promoting physician assisted suicide is because of the pain people who request physician assisted suicide may have and because it is believed it can give others a chance to die with dignity. Both of these issues are addressed in this source. Pain is tolerable now because of the pain medication hospice and doctors can provide. It states that 95% of pain is controllable and the other 5% can be reduced so it is at least manageable. Therefore, that argument is no longer valid. Furthermore, is the

It’s done so that the person that is ill will not have to suffer any further and find relief and peacefulness after death. They get the option to end their life so that their suffering will end, but sometimes family members choose for them because sometimes they are too sick to decide for themselves. Many people do not agree on this type of death, they see it as a type of murder or immoral. In many other countries it is allowed while in the United States it is illegal because many people see it as a bad thing to do. Mercy killing should be allowed everywhere because people should have the right to decide on their life and not be prevented from it because somebody else sees it as a wrong thing. It stops the suffering they feel everyday of not being like everybody else or being in pain every day. Allowing euthanasia opens up hospital rooms to the people that need them and have a chance of

Even though people think it is a way of getting rid of pain, it is considered suicide. Euthanasia is accepting and promoting suicide. If we allow to take somebody's life because of the pain the person has, people would take a life lightly and would be eased to think that suicide is the way of escaping from the problem. Every life is important and valuable so that we should not let anybody choose to die themselves by the choice of the

Physician assisted suicide is requested by the terminally ill, typically when the pain from the illness is too much to handle and is not manageable through treatments or other medications. Assisted suicide is more of a broad term for helping someone die a good death, physician assisted suicide is where a medical doctor provides information and medication and the patient then administers the medications themselves. Euthanasia is also another term that is commonly heard, this refers to a medical doctor that voluntarily administers the lethal dose of medication to the patient when the patient requests it, due to not physically being able to do it themselves (Humphry, 2006). There pros and cons with this topic throughout the world, but is one of the biggest debated things here in the United States of America and to this day there are only five states that have legalized physician-assisted suicide (ProCon.org, 2015). The government should allow patients that are terminally ill the right to choose physician assisted suicide, why should they have to suffer when there is a way out.
