How do you get euthanasia in Netherlands?

You don't, or at least: you can't get it easily, as people who do not live in The Netherlands sometimes seem to think. Under very, very specific circumstances, you can ask your doctor for euthanasia. Your doctor has to confirm you are completely sane and that you 'suffer unbearably'. For example: you have got cancer in a terminal phase and you suffer from enormous pains. Two other doctors, who do not know your doctor or you, will have to see you and conclude the same - independently. And they all have to file a report. Only then, your doctor won't be prosecuted if he performs euthanasia.
