Do you think severely depressed and/or suicidal people should be allowed to kill themselves?

As in, allowed to be given the means to end their life. Same as putting down a sick dog, isn’t it? What’s [i]really[/i] the benefit of keeping them alive?

Free Will states that they already are allowed.

@Amyrakunejo And how are you sure we have free will?
@ShaythePanTransMan Free Will is something we all use whenever we do something we do because we want to, or tell someone no when they order us to do something we don't want to. Those are examples, rudimentary, yes, but they are examples of acts of Free Will.

@Amyrakunejo Yes, but who is to say we weren’t determined to make those choices anyway? Just because we do what we want to doesn’t mean we have free will.
I am almost finished with an entire course of Philosophy on free will. Currently have an A+.
