I don't like how religions tell suicidal people they could go to hell. If they are in so much pain wouldn't God understand?

I'm not religious, but this is my take:

  1. Suicide is not selfish

  2. People can never really understand how painful it is to live through depression so just telling them to have faith in God doesn't fix it because depression always comes back again

  3. When you're in a depression, suicide is all you can think of, it always comes back, and if someone wants to then why not just let them make that choice if they can't take it after years of trying.

I just don't think sending someone to hell because they were really suffering sounds right or like something God would do. I have had people in my life do it & I just want to think of them in heaven. I'm also not too sure if hell is even real even though I do believe in God myself.
