no, its not selfish.
you didn't exactly choose to come into this world, so why can't you leave? Like, if some friends dragged you to some random party and you didn't like it, you should be allowed to leave, eve if it disappoints some people. (clearly more mild example). dont kill yourself tho.

It is selfish, because you are permanently traumatizing friends and family and leaving them with the life long struggle of your decision and losing you, just for you to take the easy way out. Imagine knowing your sister, brother, daughter, son, best friend, etc. is now gone and knowing you will never see them again, and that the cause was entirely preventable, the burden of believing if you did one thing different, they may still be here. It's a horrible thing to put others through that never truly goes away.

it's hard to think as 'selfish' of something that people do because they feel like they have no other choice.

In some ways, I can see suicide as “selfish” (you are exiting the social contract you have with others without their approval), but I would never call it “selfish.” Telling someone that it’s “selfish” only makes them feel guilty & damages their esteem while they are struggling.

That being said, suicide is serious & permanent. I hope that you get the support you need & a humanistic environment that emphasizes your growth as a person.

in outside perspective it might since they care abt you but personally nope, but don't try it tho, chances of u surviving and just suffering the aftermath is... very high (from experience)
