Suicide is a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. You will go to hell and spend the rest of eternity in torment, wishing you had just dealt with this stupid temporary problem you have, in this life. Cast aside your problems at the feet of Christ and live.
My wife works with helping abused children.
What happens to those children who've had the will to live gang-raped out of them... who are so fucked up that they can no longer speak or eat or recognize people and are so damaged they hate everyone and everything and kill themselves.
Surely those children aren't tormented forever?
I see our Savior, & most fierce advocate, as one who will forgive far more than we can comprehend.
God our father must demand justice, his son & our brother may forgive anything he wishes since he paid for all sins in Gethsemane & never needed to.
I have a hard time believing that one ends up in Hell for suicide in every situation, though I do agree that we will torment ourselves over our own inability to figure it out (which very well may be what so many consider Hell).
I am so saddened by the friends I have had that did not have enough compassion & support in their lives that they felt suicide was the only way out.
I also have wondered if even higher laws, that we have not chosen to live/do not comprehend as a people, compel justice for those who did not step in when they could have to help prevent those deaths & ease the burdens of their fellows before that time of crisis. If that is true, nearly all of us will be so grateful for our Savior's compassion during that judgment.
