Suicide

[hitch0403]

The important thing is to try to get Jehovah's view. Human life is precious and sacred to Jehovah. (Genesis 9:5; Psalm 36:9) The intentional killing of oneself by suicide would be self-murder and likely displeasing in Jehovah’s eyes. (Exodus 20:13; 1 John 3:15)

However, another important factor to consider is the mental and emotional disorders that are involved in many suicides. Only God can fully understand the role that mental sickness, extreme stress, even genetic defects, have in a “suicidal crisis,” which often happens in a moment of despair. Ecclesiastes 7:7 says, "For mere oppression may make a wise one act crazy, and a gift can destroy the heart".
Will Jehovah forgive the self-murder committed by people in such a mental state? God alone searches ‘all hearts and every inclination of the thoughts.’ (1 Chronicles 28:9) We are not in a position to judge, but we can take comfort in scriptures such as Psalm 103:10-14 “Jehovah has shown mercy to those fearing him. For he himself well knows the formation of us, remembering that we are dust.”
And we can be confident that Jehovah as‘the Judge of all the earth is going to do what is loving, just, and right!’(Genesis 18:25.)

I think the most important thing is to make sure to be supportive of the loved one who has just suffered the loss.
