Suicide should be an option of last resort. Only you know if it’s right for you or not-no one could really tell you one way or the other.
To use myself as an example, my life wasn’t anything special, but I had some great opportunities come my way, especially earlier in life (in my 20s). Now I’m older, I don’t get such opportunities anymore, my job sucks, I used to be fit, now I’m out of shape and it seems things are slowly and subtly getting worse for me as I get older. On the other hand, my life is fairly stable, my health is ok and while I’m not where I’d like to be, I’m still doing better than many other people.
So suicide is on my mind a lot but things aren’t so bad for me that it is my only option. I might try to see if things get better and if they do, I’ll live as long as I can. If however in about 10 years when I hit my 50s I’m still struggling to get somewhere, then I will definitely end it-with regret.
I like life, there are things I’d like to experience and discover. But there’s no point in living if you will never have that life you wanted-while others go on to live amazing lives full of happiness. I see some middle-aged people working in fast food restaurants or doing lowly jobs, like being cleaners…I couldn’t imagine living like that-in fact I wouldn’t. So ya if my life was any worse, that’d be another reason for me to end it.
In your case you need to decide if life is worth it-if you can overcome your difficulties or if you feel your future is going to be no different than the present.

If you’re asking, then the answer is no. 🙂
That goes for you too Jules 🙂
