After Dracos post i started thinking.
Who ever said suicide is against certain law? Especially if we are supossed to have free will.
Also the fact that we die from the moment we are born.
Al the parts of your body die and re-generate al the time, so who says this is not suicide?
Your thought and personality change al the time so where are you and who are you?
What is the diference between a act of a few seconds to kill one self and the slow dying of over eating-smoking-drinking-going to war etc etc.
Why this need to condemn a person who wants to leave on his/her own terms the way that person wants?
There is no death so where is the sin in this dying from your own free will?
When i drowned and after that i had my violent car crash, i died...did i die in vain? Did i die by accident? Did i not deserve to die?
There is no death only transition so why judge the suicidal person.
What if part of his life lesson and those around him has suicide as a base?
I hear a lot of people screaming Coward to someone that kills himself...they do not know what it takes to do so.
Why do people who live a lie judge a person who wants to get out of the lie?
Your body and the Ego attached to it is not YOUR SELF.
You can not kill the Self.
It is worse if you limit the Self to stupid asumptions of laws that only govern this plane of consciousness.
I have died 3 times and i have no problem doing it again.
If i do not kill my body by suicide it is because i think it is of no use right now, but we al die at the end and move on, i for one being a free Self shure would like to die when i believe i am ready to, and so i will choose my own death the way i want it and not the way some law invented by people dictates.
Just some thought on the matter.

Also many depressed ppl wish to kill themselves... from emotional psychological truama and other reasons that are not just purely objective and rational. For these ppl it is a gesture of compassion to try and help them in the fight to live... even if they cannot see it of there own free will.
Many people with mental illness lead healthy fulfilling lives, but struggle from time to time with self injurious and suicidal thoughts feelings etc.
I my self have this experience. When i was younger i made some suicide attempts and I am glad my life was safe guarded at that time, because I enjoy my life and the love i share in it.
So... basically this is a complex question... with no one size fits all answer.
Personally I believe in safe guarding life and the value of life... but you cant always do that and it isn't always the best thing to do. So many factors come into play.
Everyday I feel a little less able to do things for myself and I hope when the end comes it will be as peaceful as possible.
I am really happy about it and can't wait to be with the ones I love who are already there, bring it on ,peace and freedom from all the pain I have had to deal with in this life. I feel sure that it is my ticket out of here and nothing I do will stop me from going.
I have thought about it myself if i would be in your position.
Have chemo or not. A friend who passed a few years back from cancer, made a interesting question.
She asked if it was better to take chemo or to spend the last year fully aware with her friends and family.
I said i personaly would choose not to have chemo and spend the last moments aware.
Her family pushed her to take chemo even if her state was terminal.
She only spend about 2 month with them, for the rest she was to sick from chemo and died a sceleton in 6 month time...
