People have been trying to answer that question for a very long time. We can only do our best to help people when they become suicidal. Listening to people when they need to talk, watching for signs like depression, depression that very suddenly changes, people giving away all there belongings, and expressing the wish to end it all are warning signs not to be ignored.

In some countries, suicide is illegal. In the UK for example it is also illegal to fail to prevent a suicide you knew was going to take place.

Although suicide is illegal in some countries, the individual will not face criminal arrest. Instead they will be summoned to attend counselling and medical procedures to help them overcome the suicidal thoughts. However, if the individual continues to attempt suicide or fails to show for a summoned counselling session, a warrant may be issued for your arrest in some countries. For example, under the Mental Health Act of the UK, you can be arrested and imprisoned within a specialist psychiatric hospital if you are believed to be a serious risk to yourself.
