Even though she is not eager to die, she is willing to risk death to satisfy the laws of the gods.
Creon thinks that Antigone is a mad (crazy), annoying woman, and should obey men. Haemon is Antigone's future wife, and is so mad at his father for sentencing her to death that he plunges a sword into his own body. Ismene is Antigone's older sister, so she is scared of her sister dying.
That she will kill herself before she dies as a result of his punishment is the reason why Creon says that his hands will be clean after taking Antigone to the vault in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone breaks one of her uncle King Creon's laws for which the punishment is dying at the hands of stone-throwing Thebans. Creon concludes that Antigone has the wits and communication skills to turn Thebans against him and his unpopular edict. He therefore decides to have Antigone walled up in a remote cave with enough food to survive but in such a scary place that she will die at her own hands before dying from his ultimate sentence of death by starvation.

King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law, does the sentencing and speculates that she may take her own life rather than drag the dying out in the scary, lonely darkness.

Supportive is the way that the city feels about Antigone's crime in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone dares to break her uncle King Creon's edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. The edict denies to Antigone's brother Polyneices and his Theban supporters the god-given rights of all Thebans to below ground burials. The people of the city of Thebes seek healing, not further conflict, and feel exactly the way that Antigone does, but lack her courage.
