I think sometimes the idea that suicide is better than living with constant pain (physical or mental) is a clear, thought out "solution" to a problem. It is one of the options. I don't think you have to be depressed to think about suicide. I also don't think you necessarily think about suicide when you are depressed.
I think the feelings can be old and overwhelming so you "lose it" momentarily. This happens to me. I think you can feel trapped or stuck and this presents itself as a way out.
I also think what shadow said makes perfect sense. Well enough to act -- a scary thought.
I hope the thoughts for you don't become overwhelming. Take good care.
