There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Anyone who has a personal relationship with Christ will go to heaven - there is no sin that can change that. We get into heaven through faith and not works.
One would question, however, if people who commit suicide genuinely had a relationship with God because it wouldn't seem His Spirit was at work in them.

I am not a Christian. But the Christians I know say that you have to accept that Christ died for your sins in order to get into Heaven. In that case, it doesn't really matter if you committed suicide. Although suicide is a sin, you are redeemed from your sins through Christ. So whether you go to Heaven or Hell doesn't depend so much on your sins during life (even if the sin is suicide which ends your life). It depends only on whether you have accepted Christ.

It is not addressed Biblically, thus you will never receive an answer that is not a guess.
There are two sides to the issue obviously.
People who claim they go to hell, claim this because the person becomes as one who is "playing God".
People who claim they go to heaven, usually claim this because they believe in order for any person to take their own life, they cannot be in a normal mindset, thus they are psychologically impaired.
Take your pick...I'll stand on the fence and take neither side.

If a person kills themself we may really know why, but God does. If the person did not know the true God then they will be resurrected as one of the unrighteous. All who die go to hell regardless of their standing as hell is nothing more than the common grave of mankind. Also the person killing themself may not be running on all batteries so to speak, if they had a mental problem they may not have full realization of their actions and God understands this, again they would be resurrected.

Suicide in many religions is seen as a cardinal sin and it is believed that when a person takes their own life they are condemning their souls straight to hell... I am not so sure I believe that completely, but I don't ever want to find out. I love my life way too much.... in the end we all believe what we want to. So whatever you think works.

It is a sin to kill yourself, you enter hell!
now that is for most cases, I can think of many cases where to end your life you enter heaven, but for the general depression, or feeling of total loss, it is hell!

If you are a believer, you will go to Heaven. Suicide is not an unforgivable sin....only denying Christ as God is. You will have to answer for it, but you will not be unforgiven.
Where do you go?
Believer? Heaven
Nonbeliever? Hell

my sister- when someone commits suicide, they are not around to seek forgiveness for their sin (taking the precious life God gave them) afterwards. The sixth commandment tells us "thou shalt not kill/commit murder". That includes killing oneself. The Bible also says "The Lord gives and the Lord takes away..." Sadly, hell is their destination and there is nothing worse. Hell has many names; the abyss, the pit, the lake of fire, pergatory, but its all the same.
God Bless you and keep you...

If the person is saved then they are going to heaven regardless of how they die, its such silliness to believe that ppl who commit suicide are doomed to Hell. It is a sin no less than any other in God's eyes, and He has offered to save cleanse us from all of them.
Let me also add that ppl think that ppl who commit suicide are going to hell because they beleive that person is playing God, is abortion not also playing God. Sin is Sin, and it is all forgivable.
