Depends on what you mean by that, in the sense that I have decided to kill myself, no. In the sense that I have given the option serious consideration as a way to resolve certain issues, then yes.

That said, it is a personal belief that suicide is an acceptable personal choice and while those around such a person should certainly try to talk them out of it if they are aware of it since the decision is generally not a smart one, the person ultimately should be allowed to proceed if they desire so long as their method does not put others at personal physical risk.

I know many people disagree, and I don't at all deny that many people choose suicide for horrible reasons, nor that any suicide, however rational, may have horrible emotional impacts on people they know. I also do not extend this consideration to minors.

And I know that almost everybody disagrees with me, but that's my view. And so other than the hassle this guy caused others, I don't have a problem with him deciding to kill himself (unless he's a minor and I missed that).
