They say God never gives us more than we can handle. [Spirituality & Religion]
But doesn't the reality of suicide prove that is fundamentally untrue?

Nope. Just because you are capable of handling it, does not mean you think that you can or want to. It's also called free will.

Your statement was that God does not deal more than you can handle. Therefore you can handle it. Thinking you can'take is subjective. Either a absence of trust in God, non-belief in God, or lack of belief in your own capabilities.

No. You assume the final answer is suicide. Suicide is failure. The existence of it proves free will.
I know some will point out its not the same as terminal illness and "death with dignity".

Yes, suicide is a choice, but it is not the answer. Whether you realize it or not, God has a plan for your life. He did not give you life, for you to kill yourself. When you've reached rock bottom, there's only one place to look, and that is UP. And when you do, Jesus will be waiting for you, to comfort you and wrap you in His loving arms, where He's been waiting all the time. He invites you to a brand new life in Him.
