Hey kid, check out what this other guy on the forum had to say about it:
username gandharve:
"I was chatting with an expert in this field regarding the whole topic of suicide: an Indian yoga master, a guy born with abilities we’re all just trying to practice up in this life or the next, someone who really knows his stuff.
He told me:
Every single one of us possesses both a physical body and an energetic body. As long as you're living a normal life, that energetic body keeps charging up and discharging based on the state of our chakras—our energy centers. Every time we lose our cool or get stuck in a 'negative' headspace, those chakras slam shut and the energy flow stops. But when we open ourselves up—say, through prayer, meditation, or just immersing ourselves in art, beauty, and love—those chakras open back up, letting the energy flow. This continues until our energy slowly runs dry—it gets spent, sooner for some and later for others, leading to death. Everyone decides their own timing:
If you close off, the energy stops flowing and no new energy comes in, so you (your physical body) just burn through your reserves. If you stay open, you receive new energy—you're basically extending your life. It's entirely up to the individual.
The moment someone takes their own life, that connection between the physical and the energetic body is severed. The link breaks between the producer of energy (the energetic body and the chakras) and the consumer of energy (our physical body).
There’s no way to spend any more of that stored-up energy because the consumer is now lying in the ground rotting, while we (the energetic body) wander the astral plane without our senses—our nose stays tied to the body, our eyes too, our sense of touch, taste, smell, everything is still linked to the flesh.
And here's the kicker:
The consciousness that is part of us remains with us (yeah, at least it does) until the very moment that energy finally runs out, and just imagine:
Suppose we're meant to live, say, 80 years using that energy via our physical bodies, but we destroy the body early; we're left wandering the astral plane for maybe another 700 or 900 years until our internal capacitor finally drains completely.
With full awareness of our existence, of everything we've done and everything we've done to others, both the good and the bad...
It's the one thing you can't run away from...
That's why suicide is the absolute worst sin a person can commit against themselves."
So, go ahead, be a fool and see if what this guy is saying holds water.
