From what I’ve observed, read and researched, most people who commit suicide are very selfish and self-centered.
Yes the act is selfish but has it been researched if that is the way they lived their life? Being self centered, selfish?
I don’t think we really know very much about what drives actual suicides. All we can ever study are people that ~attempt~ suicide, and IMHO those are two very different groups of people. Those that really do intend to die, generally succeed. Those that don’t succeed likely didn’t really mean it. Studying the latter doesn’t shed any light on the former, IMHO.
I’ve known two people over the years that have killed themselves. Both of them were cases where it came totally out of nowhere. There was no sign at all to anybody that knew them. Nothing to alert anyone. Suddenly they were gone. What kind of private hell they carried, was known only to them.
