If you chose to end your own life, then so be it, I'm happy for you because that is what YOU wanted to do. That's why I think it is wrong to be able to institutionalize a person for self-harm.
The difference is that fetuses can't defend themselves, or decide for themselves if they live or die. A grown person can.
That's going too far in the wrong direction- if a person is committing suicide, they're usually not sane.
