CBS has a story from the Final Exit Network training manual and it validates my every suspicion that the group is a death cult. From the story:

The training manual provides a detailed, behind-the-scenes look at how the network operated. It was written for what the network called โ€œfirst responders,โ€ or the first to speak to those seeking help committing suicide. โ€œYou, as the first responder, are a special person,โ€ the manual says. โ€œYou all were attracted to this program because of a compassionate interest โ€ฆ Sometimes that means to โ€˜hearโ€™ a desperation that the member does not know how to communicate and softly voice it for them.โ€ The manual tells guides that if theyโ€™ve planned carefully, they can โ€œanticipate this special day with a sense of peace and celebration.โ€ โ€œIf this is your first case, you no doubt will be nervous from the responsibility, but you can try to keep a sense of celebration about the proceedings to come,โ€ the manual says.After a member has killed him or herself in the presence of two exit guides, the guides โ€œusually go to a restaurant to quietly celebrate.โ€

Thereโ€™s a word for this: S.I.C.K.
