Isn't suicide inherently violent due to the intent to cause permanent harm to oneself?

Its ableist to say that someone's choice to exercise free will is somehow coerced or violent because they suffer from depression and/or pain.

I certainly don't like suicide but I don't get to make that choice for other people.

There should be a newline between "otherwise" and "I", but I don't have enough points to edit.
