That doesn't mean they want to be alive though. Surviving a suicide attempt is a pretty awful and traumatic experience. It's entirely logical to not try again, out of fear that you will survive. Of course, that's absolutely not universal. There are plenty of survivors who go on to live happy lives. But it's disingenuous to say that not trying again is evidence that they want to be alive.
