DIGNITAS-Forum

Hey
I was wondering - what are the 'requirements' to be allowed assisted suicide by Dignitas?

Also, is it possible for people from Norway to be helped? Or is it only for people in the country where Dignitas is located?

The reason I ask is that I'm (obviously) from Norway and I'm undiagnosed. However, I've been in hell for the last 5 years and there is no sign I'm getting better.

Twitching all over, weakness in hands, arms, legs.. I can't do anything anymore and I don't have any life at all.
I'm a mystery to the doctors, they agree there must be something but they can't find it. I've been to a million tests.

I'm to the point now where I'm fed up. Every day is a fight against depression and worsening symptoms. Once a part weakens, it *never* recovers.

So would I need a diagnosis to get help? Knowing there is a painless way out would be SUCH a relief. I'm planning to commit suicide myself every day, but I fear I would not have the courage to ever go through with it.

Anyway, enough rambling :) I would really appreciate some answers!

And I'm sorry I have to write in English, I only know Norwegian and English.

Hi,

It's to be read on the website. If you are in doubt, e-mail or write to or telephone with dignitas.

Dignitas takes people from all over the world.
