A physically healthy 29-year-old Dutch woman ended her life through assisted suicide due to crippling depression and other issues.
According to multiple outlets, officials in the Netherlands gave Zoraya ter Beek, 29, final approval to die by assisted suicide on the grounds of unbearable mental suffering. Ter Beek first applied for euthanasia in 2020.
Ter Beek reportedly died last week.
As Townhall previously reported, Ter Beek previously aspired to be a psychiatrist, but “was never able to muster the will to finish school or start a career,” she explained in an interview with The Free Press. She suffered from depression, as well as autism and borderline personality disorder.
At one point, a mental health professional reportedly told Ter Beek, “There’s nothing more we can do for you. It’s never gonna get any better.”
At the time, Stef Groenewoud, a healthcare ethicist at Theological University Kampen, in the Netherlands, told The Free Press, “I’m seeing euthanasia as some sort of acceptable option brought to the table by physicians, by psychiatrists, when previously it was the ultimate last resort.”
“I see the phenomenon especially in people with psychiatric diseases, and especially young people with psychiatric disorders, where the healthcare professional seems to give up on them more easily than before,” Groenewoud added.
“I entered the review committee in 2005, and I was there until 2014,” Boer told the outlet. “In those years, I saw the Dutch euthanasia practice evolve from death being a last resort to death being a default option.”
Peak post-modernism
The Nazis won.
Terrible.
Sad….and depressing .
…..
Hello, suicide hotline, i feel like I want to kill myself.
Suicide hotline: good news, we can help you do that.
This won’t be the peak, unfortunately.
Waited 4 years. Without this program, she would likely have muddled through life, maybe found a life partner, had kids. Just mind-boggling that a country with a shrinking population has a program like this.
Next, it will be legal to put pre-assisted suicide people under anesthesia and harvest their organs before they are snuffed.
You read it here first.
And slipping “Want to end the pain?” pamphlets under the door of neighbors, relatives you don’t care for
‘’I get no respect I tell ya! I called the suicide hotline. They put me on hold!’’
In America she would have been told she was really a man and put on testosterone and given a double mastectomy and take two aspirins and call me in the morning.
Solve your vitamin B1, B12, D, and Zinc deficiencies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, don’t give her a Bible and give her any hope for Eternity or anything like that.
Too late. Sadly.
She was murdered.
Tell suicide potentials ‘if you think life sucks, wait until you get to hell’
Murdered by DEPOPULATION advocates getting paid by government. Horrific.
This is what happens when you sit at home all day watching TV shows like “Da View” and Rachel Madcow.
MOST DECENT countries have Suicide Hotlines to PREVENT suicides NOT pimp them like the “Season Finale” of people’s lives.
Kinda contradicts arguments for natural selection as a means of evolving the species.
