He shouldn't have killed himself though. There is no excuse for that action. Not only did that set a bad example for the people of Gondor, but it brought shame on them as a country. I once read this book where a Scottish Laird killed himself, and the whole clan was ashamed and spoke of him no more. Not only was it bad for Denethor, but harmful to all who cared about him.
