I couldn't agree more. Implying or calling the OP selfish when/if they are suicidal is extremely invalidating to HER feelings. Quite often the person who is suicidal has never had anyone validate them or how they feel, and blaming them or judging them for feeling suicidal and being depressed (which is what is happening when someone calls them selfish) is neither supportive nor helpful.
I would guess the OP came here for support. Not opinions on how others feel about suicide.
OP, I am sorry that you are feeling this way. I know how it feels to feel hopeless and at the end of the rope. I am terrible at relationship advice, but it does sound like you would benefit from professional help. Please seek some.
