Suicide is one of the worst things you can do, IMO. One of the more unpleasent words in the English language. :S
But I think, if a person's life is going to end very soon, and they know it (you have six months to live, and every minute of it is going to be filled with crippling pain), or if a person becomes an incurable drooling vegetable... which, to me, is no different than being clinically dead, then I think a person has a right to end it on their own terms.
But I hardly think a person has a right to commit suicide whenever and for whatever reason, because I don't think that a person's life belongs only to them. It belongs to those who love them, also, and it's a terrible thing to anyone when someone they love dies, for whatever reason.
