Then again, that's a good thing.

In that aspect, I can that feel suicide is selfish and disrespectful.

Some people lose their lives when they want to keep it; Some people try to do their best to live after enduring horrible things in their lives.

In addition, Suicide isn't a choice that would effect only you. Ironically, you may be hurting those that love you deeper than any stranger ever could.
If you chose to do it in the public or even in a place that people would discover you, you could scar people's minds with the memories of your lifeless corpse (or what's left of it). And that'd be one of the last impressions you'd make in this world.

There are different kinds of suicide that also need to be considered: Suicide to "gain" something, to protect something and - what I'm talking about - to escape something.

Ultimately, it is their choice whether or not to commit suicide.
... But they can still be judged for making that choice... and they can still be wrong.

...
that seriously sounded like a bad thing for a moment ._.

I understand your sentiment behind asking the question, but this is not a matter of rights. It is a condition they are dealing with - whether their reason is justifiable or not, does not, and usually will not, change the fact that that the condition exists.

However, neither has the right to inflict their suffering on others, especially strangers. Their actions should be restrained so that others are not unwittingly and/or unwillingly dragged into the mire of their existence which their own self-centeredness has, in all probability exacerbated.
