How do you "demonstrate one is out of touch reality"? That's just as difficult to define. My argument is that there's no black or white answer.

- hackinthebochs 14y agoI think you can demonstrate it in obvious cases: "what color is the sky"? "Potato". Barring cases such as these we would err on the side of allowing one to exercise their right to self-determination. Using the nebulous "depressed" definition as a justification is absurd. Sure, do everything you can to convince them that suicide isn't their only option. But ultimately you must accept that it is not your decision nor the state's.
