Think about this If God the father is an all loving all forgiving all understanding God that can forgive you of your sins right.
If you have previously accepted Jesus you are saved right?
Then if you commit the sin of suicide and it is a sin then you would be forgiven of that sin.
That being said The "church" when preaching about heaven and hell made heaven look so good that it would be preferable to a really shity life. So if everyone who believed in a wonderful heaven they would kill themselves just to see it to escape.
But given that Gods greatest gift is life I think he would want you to live it to it's fullest extent. Therefore you would in turn be following his wish's.
I don't want to believe that say a person that was in a concentration camp during WW 2 slowly dying and being tortured or watching their children go through it to and that person committed suicide I can't imagine an all loving and forgiving God would punish that person again by sending them to hell.
But I do believe that you better make damn sure before even considering it because believe it or not no matter how bad you think your life is now it can only get better from here on.
Cheer up listen to some happy up lifting music.It doesn't have to be religious music either.
If I told you my life story you'd change you mind about yours I promise.
Chin up as the British say.

Apropos suicide, my good old friend likes to say that if you do commit suicide you will definitely go to hell. After you die having committed suicide, when you do appear at the holy high gate to Heaven the saintly guardians there will resolutely bar your access. Then the nearby standing nasty deputies of ferocious ever grinning Satan will grab your soul for so violently hurling you down into the high scorching flames of ever burning Hell for your own perennial damnation.
I am not joking, not at all! Ah! ah! ah! ah! ... ah! Do not commit suicide. Do try and have a happy and more adventurous life instead. Good luck!

As a Mormon I do not believe in "Hell" however that being said that in now way means you should end your life.
Try Mormon.org they may be able to give a different perspective than what you have now on life after death.
Life is worth living my friend!!!
"Man did not create himself. He did not furnish his spirit with a human dwelling place. It is God who created man, both body and spirit. Man has no right, therefore, to destroy that which he had no agency in creating. They who do so are guilty of murder, self-murder it is true; but they are no more justified in killing themselves than they are in killing others. What difference of punishment there is for the two crimes, I do not know; but it is clear that no one can destroy so precious a gift as that of life without incurring a severe penalty"

I believe that God judges you on your kindness to others and how you lived your life. Did you steal? Did you cheat? Did you help who you could? Were you grateful to those that helped you? Did you work hard? I am probably wrong ,but God can't be happy with how all this is going, so I can't imagine him sending someone to hell if they had enough of it here.

Only God knows. We cannot judge. We never know what pain someone is feeling just before he or she commits the tragic act. If they really think it is the only way to stop the pain, then perhaps God will forgive them.
