Venting Does anyone believe that suicide is ever justified?

I'm sure a lot of us here can relate to only staying alive for other people, which is currently the main thing holding me back. I met my current partner in the psych ward of all places, except it is not too often we are able to see each other due to long-distance. I don't want to make this too long, but I have this feeling that I am not going to be here too much longer, as I have been thinking of various methods and drafting a suicide note to give some of the few people in my life closure. All I want is for them to truly be able to move on from this and find peace. For as long as I can remember, I've been doing everything for other people and putting everyone else's needs above my own. I have to start doing things for myself instead of worrying about pleasing the people around me. I care about my partner's feelings more than I care about my own but I have never felt more hopeless in life than I do right now. Referring back to the title, does anyone believe that suicide can be justified, and is there any way I can give them as much closure as I possibly can? I just feel fundamentally broken beyond belief and I need a way out.

Suicide in most cases is justifiable and not selfish. The ones getting mad at suicidal people and calling it selfish are the selfish ones. We're stuck in our lives 100% of the time, yet they want to force us to live in pain just to make them happy when we're just side characters to their own lives?

One of the only times I think suicide is selfish is if you have children that depend on you. At that point you have already made the selfish decision to make them, and to off yourself means to cause them more trauma.

Its going to be very hard to justify it to others.

They're going to think it's selfish. I think, sure, maybe it is selfish. But is there something wrong with that? If there was one thing we should be allowed to be selfish about, it's our own lives. Nobody should be able to dictate us on how to live, or not live, our lives.
