CMV Suicide should be legal

I know I'm probably gonna get a lot of hate for this but realistically I don't fully understand why it isn't. None of us ever really chose to be alive yet by law we're required to maintain an existence we never asked for. I'm not suicidal, I'm just genuinely confused why there isn't more discussion about this. Suicide is such a touchy subject, and we've all been lead to believe that it's never the answer even though we don't even know how or why we are alive to start with. Does it make sense to make someone keep something they never wanted in the first place? I know it's more complicated than that, but I feel like there needs to be a real discussion about this.

Edit: I know there's loads of arguments to either side of this debate and honestly I hate arguing I just really felt like there needed to be a discussion about this. The media and all of us are so brain washed in a sense to fear death and things surrounding it rather than understand that its not all bad. Pretty much everyone I have met on this post has been pretty adamant against my points, but I'm honestly just glad we can talk about it. I hope this post helps some people understand that this doesn't neccecary have to be a one sided issue. Thank you guys :)

In many cases, depression can be effectively treated and people can be brought back to the state of mind they were in prior to their depressive episode. In many cases of mental illness, suicide should stay illegal, however, in cases where the afflicted individual doesn’t respond to medication or therapy, the individual should be allowed to end their own life. Same applies for physical illness. If one is terminally ill and wants to put their life to an end before they succumb to their disease, they should be entitled to do so.
