I don’t know him personally and I never met him but I heard that the son of one of my mother’s coworkers committed suicide and even though I don’t know anything about him I felt that I had to pray for him. So I thought that I could ask people here to do the same and pray for him and everyone else who has committed suicide.

Bless, O God of eternal life, all who have died by their own hand. Grant them peace from their inner turmoil and the compassion of your love. Comfort those who mourn their loved ones. Strengthen them to face the questions of pain, the guilt and anger, the irreparable loss.
Help us to reach out in love to others who prefer death to the choices of life and to their families who grieve. Amen.

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
 
This is one area I never looked into the teachings of the Church on. I should have, considering a loyal friend of mine killed himself.

They could very well be in purgatory and not Hell correct?

There is no way for us to know, since both the Scriptures and Holy Tradition are silent. We trust in God’s mercy, and pray for their souls in the hope that God will take pity on them.

Praying fervently for all who have passed by their own doing. May the Lord offer them mercy and grace. If they go to hell (I mean this in the most respecting way), at least they got the chance to see His face! Amen!
 
This is a prayer one can make to their guardian angel in bad situations:

Domine, salva nos, perimus!

Lord, save us, we are perishing!

Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

†

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Blessed art thou amongst women,
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

May His soul rest in peace
Praying for his family that they are able to cope and deal with their Son’s loss
Our Father, Who art in heaven
