I guess he has a point in his mind... But it would be murder on the doctor's part, or suicide on his... If he is that desperate, how come he don't just "sedate" himself with enough aspirin (you can not pump your system to get this out of your blood like you can with sleeping pills or anti-depressants, so there is no turning back)? They really wouldn't be able to say anything when he is dead...

Well from a metaphysical stand point, most philosophers would agree that it is immoral to kill your self, unless from a utilitarian stand point where your death would cause more happiness in the world. So I am guessing that is why it is illegal to commit suicide. But I feel that this guy is just an attention whore, for heaven sakes he is a MAN. Usually men are not the ones that have trouble killing them selves; if he really wanted to die, I think he would have got a gun already.
