What is your nation’s attitude towards suicide?

What is your nation’s attitude towards suicide?

Suicide is rather common in Central Kadigan, especially among the elderly, infirm, and those who do not wish to be a burden to their loved ones. In these groups, it is usually accepted as the ultimate expression of selflessness. We have physician-assisted suicide.

In other groups, such as the young and those going through life difficulties, it is usually seen as an expression of mental distress or illness. It is regrettable when suicide happens in these groups, and our robust healthcare system includes mental health and counselling services. Nevertheless, suicide is the ultimate expression of freewill.

Some criminals on death row are put in a room with a knife, their option is to kill themselves or starve to death.

We won't execute them for it, but we give them lectures to knock it off.

Hard to see how suicide can be illegal!
