It’s not the same state of mind someone would be in if they were deciding what kind of car to buy. With drugs their mind is twisted by the physical and mental dependence causing severe chemical changes in their brain, and with suicide there can be a possibility of depression or some other mental illness warping their thoughts

So it’s not like moral people will ever throw their hands up and be like “adults should be free to choose with their autonomy!” They should be free to choose when in a healthy state of mind. Just like we don’t legally accept contracts that someone signs when under duress or intoxicated
