Suicide is a lonely choice, not just because death is intensely personal, but because self-deliverance is a decision almost never condoned by others. As far as I'm concerned, one of the metrics for judging how appropriate it is for a given individual is the determination to go through with it on their own, of their own resolve, regardless of what others think or how they will react. If they need a push, they're not ready. Besides, if you're pushed over the edge that technically makes it murder. 😉
