because inherent or universal meaning for individual existence is non-existant... humans are forced to find things in life that give them some sort of meaning or purpose to live.
most people pick religion, few pick the expansion of the mind and learning as much about the world and the cosmos before they die, some pick materialistic items... some social events, some choose to live for others or only simply themselves. it all depends on what you want to live for, and how you give your own life meaning and purpose.
if for some reason your life feels void of meaning or purpose, i dont see a problem with making the decision to end ones life.
each and every one of us has been given the freedom to choose weather we want to live, or die... regardless of anyone elses opinion.
if life isn't worth living in your eyes, and all you feel is misery and pain... you can make that choice. but remember, time is ever flowing... and if you end your life now, you might miss out on something amazing that could happen to you... or something horrible, it just depends on if you are willing to take a chance on life, and where your perspectives lie.
also would like to point out one more very important thing...
happiness is your decision too, and it seems as if i find more truth to this statement every day that passes, even when "bad" shit happens to me.

^Totaly agree with you Strife,Life will always be what we make it,it comes down to attitude about life mostly.But if there is truely nothing left for one to live for and that there could be no reconciliation for that perspective what so ever...then sadly enough it will be/should be an end for such person.To find meaning or purpose in life, is not as hard as we think,its just the matter of will it be the purpose/meaning be what we originaly wanted,and can we recall what it was that has been originaly desired to fulfill in life< thats a bit harder to find in my opinion.

First of all, most people who commit suicide are simply depressed.
Most of these people wouldn't want to die if they received appropriate treatment for their depression, including counseling and/or drugs. Empirically speaking, many if not most of the people who FAIL suicide attempts later feel glad that they failed and are grateful to be alive. (I know several such persons, personally).
Do you enjoy the "right" to commit suicide? Well, in fact, legally speaking, for years suicide was illegal in most of the United States. My understanding is that specific laws against suicide have been revoked in most states, so nowadays you can legally kill yourself, if you like. Assisted suicide is legal in a few states, though there are pretty strict rules regulating it. But just because its legal, doesn't make it "right". Suicide may seem like a good option to someone depressed, but its typically highly emotionally traumatic to the suicidee's friends and family.
With respect to the specific situation of someone who is at the end of their life, in many cases proper pain and mood medications can make the end quite tolerable. Unfortunately, these are often NOT administered correctly, and that's a shame. But yes, in certain cases, yes, suicide probably is a dignified alternative to prolonged suffering, and I don't have a problem with that.

What do you mean by "ready to die"?
I'm "ready to die" right now, if sacrifice of my life would be necessary for a really good reason, but I'd really MUCH rather stay alive!
Again, even though people may enjoy the legal right to kill themselves, that doesn't necessarily make it "OK". It depends entirely on the circumstances in question.
For people who are depressed, there are treatment options that are probably preferable to death. For people who are in bad situations, there are likely avenues to fix the situation better than death. Suicide is generally highly traumatic for the family and friends that are left behind, even when the person contemplating it doesn't think this is true.
If you're talking about someone who is severely ill with a chronic painful condition where death is probably going to come soon anyway, then in that particular case suicide might be a dignified alternative to prolonged suffering. But before anyone goes there, they should really make sure that they're getting the best medical care possible. Again, in many cases, skillful use of pain-alleviating medications (even narcotics) and mood-elevating drugs can make a HUGE difference in quality of life for the suffering person to the point where they don't want to commit suicide anymore.
Isn't that a better alternative?
