I said that Locke's life was so bad in the original timeline that he ended up committing suicide. You said that was after Jacob lost control of the island. I was simply saying that Locke did not know anything about Jacob at the time, so that wasn't relevant to his suicide. He was simply a bitter man, who continued to fail at everything he tried, and he had enough. That was hardly a better life than the one where he realized that he is limited, but he realizes that it doesn't mean he has to be miserable or a failure. He can still be a successful, happy person, even with his disability.
