[HIGHLIGHTS] Strong controversy: he is 28 years old, fights against depression and is going to undergo euthanasia

28-year-old Zoraya ter Beek will undergo euthanasia in the Netherlands in May. Ter Beek suffers from depression and serious mental health problems.

She will be sedated and then given medication by a doctor in the presence of her boyfriend. The case highlights a broader trend in Western societies where people suffering from mental health issues are increasingly considering euthanasia, traditionally associated with terminal physical illnesses. It also highlights the need for continued dialogue, understanding and compassion to address the spectrum of mental health challenges in our society.
