Hamlet is suicidal because his father, who was very dear to him, had just been murdered by Hamlet's uncle, Claudius. Within two short months of his father's murder, Hamlet's mother, Gertrude then married that very same Claudius. This is the main reason as to Hamlet's suicidal tendancies but he is also very mixed up in his head due to encounters with his father's ghost.

Why did Hamlet change the letter and how did he do it?

One of the overarching themes of Hamlet is the questioning of real verses feinted insanity. At the start of the play Hamlet is suicidal, restraining himself only because it woul be considered a sin in the eyes of the church. After the encounter with the ghost of his father, Hamlet goes through a visible transformation. This convinces all characters, save for Horatio, believe him to be mad. At the end of the play, Hamlet kills Claudius, but not before being mortally wounded and poisoned. All traces of madness are gone and Hamlet finds himself at peace at having avenged his father. He tells Horatio to tell the story to the world so that they may learn from them.
