Felix,
I could be wrong--I often am--but I stand by my previous statement that a healthy human being generally wants to live, and someone wanting to die, especially if they are otherwise in good physical health, probably has something wrong with them psychologically and should probably get help, even if they don't seek it. There are many people who aren't even suicidal who should get help even if they don't seek it.
You make a good point; however, I'm not sure what you say would always apply.
