Ask HN: Assisted Suicide in Canada?

Like the other HN readers who see this, I'm touched by your question and want the best for you. Unfortunately this internet forum isn't a good place for such posts, for a ton of reasons.

In Canada, please call 1.833.456.4566 (24/7) or send a text to 45645 (4pm to midnight ET).

If there's anything we can do to help, or you just want someone who's willing to listen, you're welcome to email me at hn@ycombinator.com and I'll send you my personal email address. However, I need to close this thread now. We all wish you well.

(In case you don't know, I'm a moderator here; this comment probably wouldn't make sense without that info.)

You need help, likely not in canada and for sure not with suicide.

One trick for depression is to go out and find someone in a worse situation than you and help them. Volunteer at a soup kitchen, they surely need a hand. Maybe it won't make you happy but you could potentially improve someone else's life before you go.

And some suggested reading: "Man's search for meaning", by Viktor Frankl. Also a great title on Audible.
