Having attempted once, a couple of years back, I sympathize with anybody who feels like they need to end their life. When there's massive amounts of pain in life and you don't know how to deal with any, much less all of them, it seems like the best way out.
That being said, if you do, you're a fool. Life, in any respect, under any circumstances, is better than death. With life one has the hope of changing their life, the ability to move away from pain, even if a path isn't readily apparent. I cannot, at the moment of writing this, concieve of a situation where it is better to die than to be alive.

In the end, why I drove myself to the hospital. Unless your purpose is to compound the pain of others around you, suicide is something you would live (if you were living) to regret. If anybody has grown to know and care for you, in any capacity, then the choice is no longer completely yours to decide.
I wish I could stress just how much I want to say it's the wrong way to go, and that by saying so, nobody would...
