Literature on suicide?
Is suicide morally wrong? What does that mean? Does it matter? Should it matter when the individual has no input into whether they are created or not?

Considering ordering fentanyl. Just want to understand every aspect possible before it happens.

It is, and it means that by committing suicide you are harming others and breaking the moral law. It does matter, perhaps not to you: but it will certainly matter to anyone who cares about you (if anyone does). Is the fact that no-one has a choice in whether they are created or not a decent reason for opting-out of morality? I don't think so.
Jeremiah Long
I think it's morally wrong if it hurts anyone in your life. You're prioritizing your immediate desire to escape over their desire to see you live. And no matter how alone you feel, I bet there are a lot of people who'd be emotionally fucked up if you checked out.
To answer the last question in your OP: none of us choose to be here. But we can choose to find the value in life, rather than giving up on it.

First time I saw anons not suggest suicide. I'm proud of you boys.

Do you have someone that cares about you, user? Not even your mom?
If you don't, if you have nobody at all that would hurt from your passing, go for it. I hate to agree with Christfags on this one but taking your life when someone would hurt deeply from your passing is selfish.
Joshua Russell
All complex living things had to fight like hell to be more than just a single cell.
A will to live and a compulsion to put things into my mouth is perhaps the only discernible meaning I have found in life.
As others has said, suicide hurts everyone.
Things get complicated and we all just ride it out user. Don't forgot to eat, sleep and change your undies.
Yukio Mishima and Albert Camus are two suicidish authors that come to mind.
Matthew Myers
What if the harm I inflict upon others doesn't exceed the harm that is present within myself? I guess I am narcissistic but I am trying to take a utilitarian point of view.
I am, and have been incapable of finding raison d'être.
Benjamin Reed
Even if you take a utilitarian standpoint, it's unlikely that the pain you cause will not exceed the pain you feel currently from living. The same utilitarian argument could be used to justify murder (if the pleasure I feel from killing person exceeds the pain caused by the killing of the person etc. etc.) or any number of other immoral acts. Suicide, though often romanticized, is no less immoral if judged by cruelty and by the pain it causes others, than murder.
