    Voluntary Assisted Dying / Euthanasia for Tinnitus Patients (Pegasos Swiss Association, Switzerland)

    Apparently you have to pay up front and the waiting is months. I want to have suicide as a backup. €10k is a commitment to dying. I can’t back out if I was to suddenly get better, because then I would lose that money.

    Suicide Is NEVER an Option

    Wow, I never realized that 1 in 50 people commit suicide(!) It is clear that the sample is biased. Those who survive a suicide attempt are more likely to just want attention than those who don't. And we can't interview the ones who were successful. This myth makes as much sense as saying...

    When it comes to life or suicide, it is complete nonsense to warn of the addiction risk of benzodiazepines. A dead person does not have any withdrawal problem. In individual cases it is irresponsible to withhold benzodiazepines from severely suffering people. Does anyone have to make a suicide...

    I agree with a lot of what you've said. But I don't think this thread is the place for any of this, especially since you have stated that your life has improved since you started having tinnitus.

    Difficulty Committing Suicide

    It isn't psychological. It's an ingrained survival instinct to protect the species. A lot of suicides are driven by anger at another turned inward, not by a desire to die. Anger can override the survival instinct. There's a book you should read, Suicide and Attempted Suicide, by Geo Stone...

    Why Is There No Cure for Tinnitus?

    I wonder has there never been a case where a symptom of something becomes a condition itself? Hasn't it been shown that tinnitus causes changes in the brain due to things like hyperactivity at rest and maladaptive plasticity?
