Strength? You mean running away from your problems and just ending it? That's weakness, sorry.

You're also incorrect to say it's just as selfish to not want to commit suicide. Suicide is one of the most selfish acts you can do: you are essentially saying "Screw everyone I know, I don't care about their problems, the problems my suicide will create or any relationships that will crash. My decision matters more than them".
