Title: Euthanasia and psychiatry: from patient with depression towards a doctor with depression

Abstract
What is really behind the legalisation of euthanasia and its rapid progress around the world? How is it integrated into the economic and cultural development of society? How did medicine begin to transform itself into its opposite, proposing killing on an equal or instead of curing, forming a whole class of professional executioners within itself? How did the replacement of concepts take place, creating an oxymoron: "forced good death"? Language games as a tool of perversion of meaning. What is the role of the psychiatrist, and is he capable of judging the intolerability of the suffering of those who are being put to death, their " free will", their "awareness" of what they are asking for, and even more so, of what they are not asking for?
