It's neither cowardly nor brave. It's just an option that is upto the individual to choose.
And I have issues with people who say you can't kill yourself because life is a "precious gift". A "gift" means it's yours to do with what you want. There are no riders on that deal.

Shel, I admire your bravery in that statement.
I would add to the 'precious gift' that life is only a gift if you wanted it in the first place. Otherwise, it's merely a burden.
