Medlife Crisis: Should Doctors Help People End Their Lives? - eviltoast

Policy video on assisted dying by a UK doctor. Youtube has decided not to promote it as an intense topic, so I’m putting it here.

FWIW, I don’t think the video will be particularly triggering. It’s heavy, but they are quite focused on the case of physiologically terminally ill patients.

    Reading about the right to die movement is interesting, I think there’s some expectation that it leads to more people killing themselves, when in reality it often just provides people comfort. People will obtain the drugs, and just leave them on their shelves until they die of something else.

    People just want the option.
