I actually agree that it is a personal choice. If you don't own your own body, then who does?
Like everything else with the left, this is all performative. If they actually believed that suicide was a human right, they wouldn't use "gun deaths" (which are mostly suicides) as justification for pushing for gun control.
God does. That comes with an obligation to maintain it as best as we can. And we need to regularly thank Him that He has generously allowed use the use of our bodies for the duration of our stay in the earthly realm.
But besides that you have your duty to your family, your friends, your community, and civilization as a whole.
All of those duties need to be taken into consideration. Sometimes the only thing we have left to offer is to be an example for how to maintain our dignity under terrible circumstances.
That said if I'm ever in a situation where I can't wipe my own ass, it doesn't look like things are getting better, I'm going to get my affairs in as good of an order as I can and find a way to check out as quietly as is possible.
While I agree. My sins are between me and God. While I may not own my body, no other man has a claim either.
The argument you're making is the same as one for government control of diet, because gluttony, or prohibition because intoxication. Both of which are imo worse sins than suicide.

Suicide is murder, which the government should prevent.

The role of government has never been to prevent sin. And never should be, and never can be.
