I don't understand this insistence on someone being in their right mind. We don't live in the objective world, we live in the subjective world of our minds. Who else has the right to tell you whether continued suffering is worth the chance of changing that subjective world, especially if they aren't capable of seeing that world?
I can see an argument for stopping someone temporarily to try and correct what you percieve as misinformation on their part, but I can't envision a justification for overruling someone's judgement or perception that doesn't necessitate a severe reduction of the validity of differing viewpoints.
