Zoraya ter Beek, 28, expects to be euthanized in early May.
Her plan, she said, is to be cremated.
u201CI did not want to burden my partner with having to keep the grave tidy,u201D ter Beek texted me. u201CWe have not picked an urn yet, but that will be my new house!u201D
She added an urn emoji after u201Chouse!u201D
Ter Beek, who lives in a little Dutch town near the German border, once had ambitions to become a psychiatrist, but she was never able to muster the will to finish school or start a career. She said she was hobbled by her depression and autism and borderline personality disorder. Now she was tired of livingu2014despite, she said, being in love with her boyfriend, a 40-year-old IT programmer, and living in a nice house with their two cats.
She recalled her psychiatrist telling her that they had tried everything, that u201Cthereu2019s nothing more we can do for you. Itu2019s never gonna get any better.u201D
At that point, she said, she decided to die. u201CI was always very clear that if it doesnu2019t get better, I canu2019t do this anymore.u201D
As if to advertise her hopelessness, ter Beek has a tattoo of a u201C
Ter Beek is one of a growing number of people across the West choosing to end their lives rather than live in pain. Pain that, in many cases, can be treated.
Typically, when we think of people who are considering assisted suicide, we think of people facing terminal illness. But this new group is suffering from other syndromesu2014depression or anxiety exacerbated, they say, by economic uncertainty, the climate, social media, and a seemingly limitless array of fears and disappointments.
u201CIu2019m seeing euthanasia as some sort of acceptable option brought to the table by physicians, by psychiatrists, when previously it was the ultimate last resort,u201D Stef Groenewoud, a healthcare ethicist at Theological University Kampen, in the Netherlands, told me. u201CI 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.u201D
Theo Boer, a healthcare ethics professor at Protestant Theological University in Groningen, served for a decade on a euthanasia review board in the Netherlands. u201CI entered the review committee in 2005, and I was there until 2014,u201D Boer told me. u201CIn those years, I saw the Dutch euthanasia practice evolve from death being a last resort to death being a default option.u201D He ultimately resigned.
Boer had in mind people like Zoraya ter Beeku2014who, critics argue, have been tacitly encouraged to kill themselves by laws that destigmatize suicide, a social media culture that glamorizes it, and radical right-to-die activists who insist we should be free to kill ourselves whenever our lives are u201Ccomplete.u201D
They have fallen victim, in criticsu2019 eyes, to a kind of suicide contagion.
Statistics suggest these critics have a point.
In 2001, the Netherlands became the first country in the world to make euthanasia legal. Since then, the number of people who increasingly choose to die is startling.
