I think that people misunderstand the term judgemental. There is nothing wrong with judging actions. If someone stabs someone, it's not judgemental to say that was a bad thing to do. It would be judgemental to say that the person was a bad person or had no redeeming qualities.

Judging acts is different from judging people. Only God gets to judge people.

If people deserve the results to their good decisions, why would it be wrong to feel that the deserve the results of their bad decisions.

In the case of suicide, it may be, and in most cases it probably is, that the person is suffering from some kind of mental illness. A person in that state may not be responsible for his or her actions.

We should look at cases where a person is suffering from a terminal illness and doesn't want to suffer anymore differently. In those cases it could be argued that there is no hope, no way to turn things around and the person is only going to suffer needlessly for a period of time. That may be a sound and cogent decision on their part.
