“…A more recent systematic review covering qualitative studies from 2001–2016, on the expression of people's wish to die due to life-threatening conditions, found five major themes [ 15 ]: [ 1 ] Suffering was an overarching theme and a common denominator for understanding the other themes, and included physical suffering as well as psychological, social, or existential suffering; [ 2 ] Reasons for wishing to die, including physical, psychological, emotional, and social reasons; [ 3 ] Meanings attributed to the wish to die, such as a cry for help, a preferable alternative to suffering, sparing others having to care for them, a way of preserving self-determination, and an expression of another form to live; [ 4 ] Functions that are addressed through the wish to die, such as means for communicating feelings, thoughts, and wishes, and means for maintaining control over one's life; and [ 5 ] the feeling that time is running out, death is imminent, and we should be ready for it.…”
