There is much to say about reporting biases, but in this case you're touching one of the most humane services only the most progressive countries have touched on. The ability to pass away in a respectful way on your own terms. No one is being forced or pressured, that's a blatant lie many media channels are responsible for.

You don't choose to be born, if you feel your life is unbearable/complete you should be able to step out of it without having to be kept alive by pills and/or treatments while slowly deteriorating mentally/physically. And don't get me started on the uncertain outcome and dramatic outcome of suicide, which is usually an insane 'counter-argument' that gets proposed as available option.

Sadly many countries have not yet reached that level of sympathy, mainly because of religious intervention. Which is exactly the point of this post.
