My older sister once gave told me 'never commit suicide hungover' (even though I wasn't feeling particularly depressed at the time). It respected that there are valid reasons for feeling down, while highlighting the need for a wider view than the current bad feeling.



My recent reocurring suicidal thoughts while being hungover drove me to quit drinking altogether.

Now that I'm sober the motives for ending my life seem banal in hindsight. Cheers to your sister.
