Why I Applied For Medical Assistance In Dying For a Mental Illness - Agata

Agata wants the option to die with dignity. Living with anorexia for most of her life, Agata is tired of suffering. She applied to be MAiD ( medical assistance in dying) for her mental illness. Canada passed Bill C-39 in January allowing people to apply for MAiD for mental health reasons, only to withdrawal the bill a month later. Agata has applied for MAiD but is now in limbo waiting for the government to pass the bill once again. We discuss why Agata applied and her experience with anorexia. Topics in this episode include depression, anorexia, suicide, trauma FOLLOW BUNNY HUGS AND MENTAL HEALTH   on Facebook ⁠https://www.facebook.com/Bunny-Hugs-and-Mental-Health-103055408571486⁠   on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/bunnyhugspodcast/?hl=en⁠   TikTok ⁠https://tiktok.com/@bunnyhugspodcast/⁠   Check out my children book at ⁠https://www.amazon.ca/Sometimes-Daddy-Cries-Todd-Rennebohm/dp/0228834678⁠   Bunny Hugs and Mental Health is currently on the Top Ten Best Canadian Mental Health podcasts list! ⁠https://blog.feedspot.com/canadian_mental_health_podcasts/⁠   And the Top 100 Best Mental Health Podcasts on the internet! ⁠https://blog.feedspot.com/mental_health_podcasts/⁠ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
