I feel that way too, but then I think about the kind of pain he must have been in and wonder if his family was looking for him or worried about him? Sometimes when people are suicidal and depressed they believe no one cares. Maybe he (and others) had people who did care but for one reason or another were unable to help him. They wanted to end their lives anonymously but we don't know if they were in their right minds - likely they were irrational and hurting.
I agree and sometimes they feel they are doing a favour to those around. Their perception gets very skewed. And in his case, if he had ongoing mental health issues it would have never been a decision about "leaving people behind" but more paranoia based or chaotic/disrupted thought-processes.
