Suicide. Do the well or the sick do that? If sick, I believe forgiven.
But personally I believe all people who do that are sick in some way.
Christian=Heaven
We cannot be plucked from Jesus' hand.

This is an unfair question. Is the reason you are committing suicide for a selfish reason or not? If you kill yourself as an end to your own problems, then there is not a doubt in my mind that you will go to Hell. If you are given a choice between your own life or the life of someone you have never met, and you choose your own because you feel the other person has the right to live as well, it is still suicide but it is a sacrafice to help someone else. You died so that someone else may live. If you are Born-again, I strongly believe heaven is down that road.

First thing I have to say about suicide is that it is the most selfish act I have ever heard of. Usually done in the spirit of "I'll show them"
As to getting into heaven, God is the only one who can judge the heart. Some say "Once saved always saved" and there are verses that support such a theory but other verses have to be ignored to believe this is always true. My personal belief is that the verses that support the idea are taken out of context. If we can never loose our salvation, who's to say we can't reject our salvation by changing our hearts and minds toward the gift of God's grace and mercy. The way into heaven is by surrendering to God's will. The way into hell is to reject God's will and choose our own will. If your last act on earth is to solve a problem in your own way, namely to end it all, you have taken what is rightly God's domain and decided when you will die and how.

Despite what kelllsssssss said, the Bible does *not* say that if you commit suicide you'll go to Hell. Note the lack of an actual cite.
Whether you go to Heaven or Hell depends on whether or not you have accepted Christ as your savior.
However, let's be clear. It seems pretty obvious that God doesn't want people to take their own lives any more than He wants them to take other peoples' lives.

Suicide.
No special law is found against this crime, for it is included in the prohibition against killing. Contrary to the practice and the philosophy of paganism, the act was held in deep abhorrence by the Hebrews because of the high value placed on human life. It was held inexcusable that any but the most degraded and satanic should lay hands on their own lives. Only the remorse of the damned could drive one to it, as witness Saul (1Sam 31:4) and Judas (Mt 27:5).

Generally, if you're a Christian and commit suicide, you would go to hell. However, there could be exceptions, like for example if you had to kill yourself to save someone else from dying and you lived a good life, I think that would gain you entry into heaven. But in general, if it's a suicide for selfish reasons (hating your life or something) then you would go to hell.

This is a hard question however my beliefe is that God gives us what we want.
When someone commits suicide they are basiclly saying I dont want life, so if they dont want life why would God give them eternal life.
Hell in all senses is death, so when someone kills themselves they want death and God I belive gives them what they want.
You cant say God I want to die but have eternal life, it doesnt work that way.
Just my personall belief, butI suggest no person worry about it.
Live your life for God, and ask God when you get to heaven this question.
God Bless :)-+=

There is nothing in scripture that says you are automatically destined for hell if you do this.
NOTE: I am not endorsing suicide, I don't think it's a good idea to destroy what God has created.

Christian is too broad of a description. There's a whole lot of different religions in that group that believe in different ways.
