Abstract

The so-called rational suicide focuses on the possibility that a healthy subject can make the determination to end his life in the absence of conditions on his freedom of decision, as in the context of a mental illness. Difficulties in assessing the rationality of suicidal ideation include its dimensional character and the evidence that rationality is not always absent in depression and the absence of depression does not always implies rationality.
