Depends on your reason for suicide.

Is it mental illness? Despair? Addiction? Simple melancholy? Rage at society? etc.

read Crime and Punishment and the Brothers of Karamazov; preferably Crime and Punishment.

Having read both I'm not sure that they are particularly relevant to suicide. Demons was Dost's most suicide oriented work.

Don't see how those two would be quite relevant to suicide. Welcome to the NHK is a decent /rec/ though. I'd also toss in No Longer Human. It's not that long either so you wouldn't have to start reading the book days in advance.

Demons was one of my favorite of Dostoevsky's works. Kirilov is literally me: nihilistic, intelligent, with a wicked sense of humor
but really, Kirilov had it all right and Dosto didn't convince me he was wrong

One of my favorite books, definitely worth a read. It's in the public domain so you could read it right here laddie, no need to order it.

His soul was rejected by St Peter at the gates of Heaven. He has wallow in baneful torment in the eternal fires of Hell for this great sin he has committed. You had time and opportunity to repent and would not. You had God waiting for you, to call you back when you had strayed, to forgive you your sins, no matter how many, how abominable, if only you had confessed and repented. No. You would not. You flouted the ministers of holy religion, you turned your back on the confessional, you wallowed deeper and deeper in the mire of sin. God appealed to you, threatened you, entreated you to return to Him. O, what shame, what misery! The Ruler of the universe entreated you, a creature of clay, to love Him Who made you and to keep His law. No. You would not. And now, though you were to flood all hell with your tears if you could still weep, all that sea of repentance would not gain for you what a single tear of true repentance shed during your mortal life would have gained for you. You implore now a moment of earthly life wherein to repent: in vain. That time is gone: gone for ever.
