Do you believe that only mentally ill people commit suicide?

There are other exceptions. As someone mentioned earlier, some cultures feel that people should kill themselves if they have dishonored themselves.

I don't consider that to be the same thing as the suicide we're talking about, though, when we are talking about suicides which are forced upon people by cultural rules.

Also, people kill themselves all the time to avoid the consequences of their actions, such as committing crimes for which they face lengthy sentences. That's cowardly, but it doesn't mean they weren't of sound mental health.

Inmates who are on suicide watch are attended to by mental health professionals.
