Is it normal to want to kill yourself on your birthday?

I mean, for people who aren't normally suicidal. And not just a 'flash', but an actual period of half an hour where you weigh up whether it's worth taking measures and draft a note in your head.

My question is: is it a common thing on birthdays? Have you ever had this?

    It's normal to be more introspective than usual on your birthday, however, suicide might be taking it a bit far. Take care of yourself when you feel like this.
    Also, if it is today, happy birthday!

    Meh, I just think about it on my birthday because I like the idea of dying the day you were born kinda rounds itself out but I wouldn't do that I think its some kind of physiological thing probably. Like when you get close to the edge of something high and want to jump.
