When Nietszche said “The thought of suicide is a great consolation, by means of it one gets through many a dark night,” was this a reference to the Stoics' permitting suicide as an option, a contemplation on nihilism or something else?

I think he simply meant you always have the opportunity to end your life, if things turn too worse for you to handle. You have to remember he dealt with severe pains of unclear origin during most of his adult life, why the thought of suicide probably felt close at hand.

Other than that the quote clearly establishes him as the first edgelord of modern thought.
