You ignored the "almost always" part.

And for me "suffering" is not that logical or rational at all, for that matter. The expectation of such suffering can be reasonable. The willingness to end this suffering can be reasonable. This, however, is a small minority of suicides, suicide attempts and even more so, suicidal ideation.

No, I didn't. You wrote "Suicide isn't logical or rational." not that suicide almost always isn't logical or rational; and then you gave an explanation that you claimed (without evidence or argument) is "almost always" the case.

What data do you base this on and why do you believe that data to be representative?
