This Is Totally Depressing

Belgian woman granted the right to die because of depression:

Laura has been a patient of a psychiatric institution since the age of 21 and says she has previously tried to kill herself on several occasions. She told journalists: “Death feels to me not as a choice. If I had a choice, I would choose a bearable life, but I have done everything and that was unsuccessful.” The date of Laura’s death is yet to be decided.

What a terrible thing to bear. We all have our hangups/things, but this has to be the worst. Reminds me of Boy Interrupted, when an obsession over death becomes the inevitable.
