Do you think that assisting the suicide of someone who wants to die - and has requested - is morally equivalent to allowing them to die by withholding medical assistance (assuming that the level of suffering turns out to be identical in both cases)?

Yes, I am convinced that assisting the suicide is equal to contributing to someone’s death. Actually, a desire to give up living is linked to a mental disorder. That means that a person needs a doctor’s assistance. Depression that is the cause of suicide is a serious disorder that requires a professional treatment. In such cases, we should do our best to help a person to overcome psychological problems, give some sedatives but not support him in his efforts. After medical treatment everything will seem to him much more positive.

1. cold turkey (no outside ). about 90% of people who try to quit smoking do it without outside support -- no aids, therapy, or medicine. although most people try to quit this way, it's not the most successful method. only about 5% to 7% are able to quit on their own.

2. behavioral therapy. this involves working with a counselor to find ways not to smoke. together, you'll find your triggers (such as emotions or situations that make you want to smoke) and make a plan to get through the cravings.

3. nicotine replacement therapy. there are several types, including nicotine gum, patches, inhalers, sprays, and lozenges. they work by giving you nicotine without the use of tobacco. you may be more likely to quit with nicotine replacement therapy, but it works best when you use it with behavioral therapy and lots of support from friends and family. and remember that the goal is to end your addiction to nicotine, not simply to quit using tobacco.
