Beethoven probably never came close to really taking his own life. Only in his letter to his brothers - the so-called Heiligenstadt Testament - he mentions 'contemplating' it because of his frequent stomach pains and loss of hearing.
He had however a large group of close friends and admirers who went out of their way to make his ailments as bearable as possible and who helped him cope with them. He never mentioned suicide as a serious consideration afterwards.
