Depends on situation: Assisted-dying is not illegal in about 5 US states, so if an adult there has a terminal illness, or is in a comparably bad situation, she has the right as an American to choose her destiny. However, many people become suicidal for other reasons which are often temporary (breaking up with a loved one, job loss, etc.). Calling 911 (or local emergency number) to save them gives them a second chance.

Perspective: Sometimes all that’s needed to provide relief is a tweak in one’s perspective. Suicide is often a permanent solution to a temporary problem. And sometimes if you just try to find the value or teachable moment in a challenge, tragedy, or other hardship and then embrace that value is gratitude, then you can surrender the suffering. Please call 911 if u r actively suicidal.
