CW: suicide

I'm pretty sure I've ticked one or more of these boxes when I've been at my most suicidal, and I don't even suffer from chronic pain or some other really difficult condition. I got mental care though, instead of being recommended to just die (a proposal I would've gladly taken).

Whoever recommends euthanasia to someone who feels they're a burden or they're in emotional distress that could be treated differently is a monster.
