It depends on the person and what they're willing to endure. The reason why I believe it's linked to self-worth is largely due to the fact that others who gone through the same scenario and made the best of it; the terminally ill living (sometimes painfully) until the very end, or the disabled (whether mentally or physically) going above and beyond, or those trapped in terrible situations getting out of it and so on. How could they keep on living? No doubt they must have thought about ending it all with how life stack so much against them. Was it family? Maybe. Friends? Perhaps. But what about those who have no family or friends, or strongly believe they're alone in the world? I believe they may have felt more than what they were limited to, that with all the suffering they been through, it's time they work toward what they always wanted.
I get that suicide can be humane in some aspects, similar to euthanasia.
