Hi, can someone please tell me where I can legally get an euthanasia appointment for having diagnosed ADHD and undiagnosed autism?

I know it's better to get support than to end my life but there is no support anywhere. I have tried to get support in my home country Australia but there's no accommodations for somebody like me, and I have faced a lot of violence from the justice system there and I am scared to return.

My ADHD/ autism has ruined my life. I'm living off savings overseas and am trying really hard to find a job but it's not possible, I'm too disabled. I will keep trying until I run out of money. But after that I don't know what I will do. I don't want to die but I don't think there's any other choice. But I don't want to have to kill myself on my own when the time comes. Please, I really want the chance to die with dignity if I do not have the means to support myself anymore. I need to plan in advance to know how much money I need for getting euthanasia.

Please someone can you tell me what the steps are? I really have tried to find support but there isn't any that I can find to support myself so I don't have a choice and I really don't want to have to kill myself on my own.

I saw a video of a guy from the US who moved to Spain to escape gang life. He spent his while life doing side hustles and whatever. So he had developed PTSD from years of bad situations and he was basically homeless. He moved to Uruguay and they let him stay. They gave him a place to live and he has services. I think the support you are looking for could be in some other non-English country. US, UK, Canada, Australia, are pretty much disasters.

Hmm have you got a link to the video? It would be nice if I can ask this guy how he did it. I really want to move to somewhere like Norway because I heard the Nordic countries have better work -life balance, gender equality and disability support systems. But after chatting to a friend from there today, I think it's too risky, I think I might run out of money there before I can find a job/ become a citizen who could get support.

I don't trust the Adventure Freaksss guy, but he interviews people and I find that valuable.
