No, but I don't think I'll be trying it to find out if I'm right.

I think suicide mostly brings the people who love you to hell. They're the ones who would suffer the most.

DO NOT COMMIT SUICIDE monicahIt would absolutely kill your mom and dad. They would never be the same. Their lives would be empty. that said, quit messing around. Get your life together. You know what you are doing. AND you are smart enough to change. It might be boring, but it will pay off in the long run. I worry about you. I'll say a prayer for you. God bless you

I have heard that the suicide gets you to Hell thing is something that was added to Christianity after and isn't actually Biblical.
At the same time, even if it is not expressly stated in the Bible that suicide gets you to Hell, it is definitely implied imo. It would be murder of the self.
I am an atheist and I think there are certain situations where suicide is okay, but too many people seem to jump to a permanent solution to a temporary problem and aren't in the right state of mind. I have struggled with suicidal thoughts many times in my life, though never actually attempted suicide.
Imagine being kidnapped and tortured for days on end. How much are you going to take and how long are you going to hope that someone is going to find you before enough is enough? Now make this mental torture instead of physical torture. If God does exist and suicide gets you to Hell that is one thing, if God doesn't exist and you just cease to exist that is something else entirely. You definitely don't want to commit suicide if you think it will make you go to Hell. The former is just more of the suffering you were trying to escape, while the latter is actually ending the suffering.
Some people give up too easily, but I also can't see into their mind. Now if it is just boredom of life then that is something different and that is one reason for suicide that never gets talked about. If you are just existing for the point of existing, then why bother? There is no point in bothering in that case unless you believe something is likely to change for the better. That isn't always the case though. I can't experience being in someone else's mind, so for me to say when and if suicide is the best thing for them is me thinking I can understand what they feel like in their mind. At the same time it makes sense why we as human's discourage suicide just from an evolutionary POV.
This is very difficult stuff.
