Does anyone know the signs for SUICIDE in ASL? 

Speaking as an interpreter, that sign would be highly context dependant.  If
I knew the means of suicide I would sign that (slit-wrist, hang, etc) If I
did NOT know the method I would sign kill-self.

Hello Anny!
Thanks for this question...Great to see a question on the SignWriting  
List!

I do not know the signs for SUICIDE in ASL, so I looked in the  
American Sign Language SignPuddle dictionary for the sign for SUICIDE,  
but did not find any...

Does anyone know the signs for SUICIDE in ASL? If so, I hope you can  
add them to our dictionary online...

Stefan has over 10,000 signs in his German Sign Language dictionary in  
SignPuddle Online, and several other countries have large amounts of  
signs too, so maybe other countries have their signs for SUICIDE  
already entered...

Look forward to seeing them!...smile...

Val ;-)
