I would go and say that someone suffering from depression might want to kill themselves because they lose touch with reality mentally and emotionally; they constantly think that they aren't good enough, that they're worthless, and other bad thoughts.
I know because I have depression and I've been through those moments. Depression cannot be cured but it is easily treatable with the right medication (the cause of depression is unknown but some experts pinpoint a chemical imbalance in the brain as the culprit).
Maybe it's not depression; it could be a lot of stress or stuff going on at home or at work that the individual is unable to deal with. In those situations, stress management and some therapy might help.

Having loss a good friend who committed suicide I used to ask that question daily (It has been 12 since then). When I think about her I still wonder what could have provoked her to do such a thing and what I could have done to stop it. Unfortunately I have wrecked my brain around questions I haven't been able to answer. If you know someone who might be considering it I would seriously talk to them, don't take their threat lightly, and call a help hotline for advice. Whatever it is this person is going through let them know that ending their life isn't an answer. The pain and misery they are feeling now is only transfered to those that they have left behind. Best of luck with everything.

Desperation. The need to get away from a situation by any means necessary. Depression can be a scary thing and can cause many problems. But there could be any number of reasons. Mostly just wanting some specific pain to stop and suicide sometimes may seem like the only way out.

Firstly, not everyone have a tendency to commit suicide,its only in some people who tend to end their life. So in that case you can tell these people are mentally unstable in some way.
Also, something triggers this unusual behaviour in those people. Like some event, or some action in which they feel bad or cannot find a way out. In these situations their unstable behaviour gets triggered and they try to commit suicide.

Mental Illness. Suicide is never the choice to make. Things may be bad at the moment, but if you stick around you have the chance to make life better. If you commit suicide, you will never have another chance. Don't do it. Get some counselling.

When They don't want to enjoy life and they are fed up of it,people commit suicide. they think that all is lost and are hopeless. when they don't see oppurtunity in their miseries they tend to lose hope and commit suicide. But one thing you must appreciate ,they have the guts to end their life. Can any one of us do like that...I love myself and so does everyone. It does take a special effort to commit suicide. Why commit suicide when you have only one life.you don't get a second chance after that.

Fear to face the problem, coz can't find any solution to remedy the problem and yet fear about to take the responsible.
Deep impression may also another issue for commit suicide, this is a sick, needed to cure through use of medicine.
Well, in terms of sociology, there are many others explanation of suicide, including social disorder.

Nothing. It's an internal problem (psychological disorder - depression, being schizo/psycho. Drugs can mimic these disorders and cause ppl to become unstable). External factors generally don't play a role unless someone is already unstable.
People that whine about it generally want attention.
If someone's serious, they'll generally just do it without telling anyone.
Good luck or whatever. >.<
