Yes, illegality of attempted suicide would in many ways be problematic. It might deter you but is it wise to go through with what you threatened people with, for the reason you said and also the "big, bad, suffocating, uncaring society" thing. You'd have to go through with it.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
