About this title

Synopsis:

Standing at the center of a heated controversy and sparking national debate, Final Exit has become a crucial handbook for people looking to end their suffering from unbearable pain due to terminal or incurable illness. This careful, concise, and compassionate manual includes:

How to commit suicide with sleeping pills, preferably with the aid of a loved one
A chart listing lethal doses of fourteen drugs
Legal considerations, life insurance, and living wills
Finding the right doctor, hospice care, and pain control
Letters to leave behind and how to write a self-deliverance checklist
Psychological support groups for the dying and suicide hotlines for depression
Plus much more invaluable advice on self-deliverance and assisted suicide

For mature adults opting to end their lives or anyone interested in this controversial and timely topic, Final Exit, the only book of its kind, provides the answers.

From the Author:

Hastened death requires careful planning
'Final Exit' contains information about which are the best drugs to use in both self-deliverance and assisted suicide to escape a terminal illness at the end. They are prescription drugs because only these are reliably lethal. Such a release from terminal suffering requires careful advance planning.
