* In the ''Series/{{Arrowverse}}'' fanfic ''Fanfic/MoralOfTheStoryNyame'', Oliver's words to Laurel in the hallway after the first disastrous family dinner in the wake of Sara's return convinces her to do this, making her believe that everything terrible in her life, particularly her family's poor treatment of her, is her own fault. Needless to say, this is not what Oliver meant ''[[PoorCommunicationKills at all]]''. What follows is a line of DisasterDominoes [[FromBadToWorse that make everything worse for just about everyone in the main cast]].

* A variation happens in ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents''--when Timmy wishes he had never been born, Jorgen von Strangle shows him a world where he never was. Everyone, from his parents, to his babysitter, to his crazy teacher are far better off in this timeline, angering Timmy into trying to undo the wish. When he realizes he'd be dooming everyone to a life of unhappiness, Timmy sadly resigns himself to be deleted from existence to make everyone else's lives great. [[spoiler: This turns out to be a SecretTestOfCharacter, and Jorgen himself reverses the wish after proving Timmy is not a selfish kid.]]

* ''Fanfic/DracoMalfoyAndTheMirrorOfEcidyrue'': It's heavily implied that the main thing keeping a guilt and trauma-ridden Draco from killing himself out of the belief that doing so would be best for everyone he cares about is the fact that he unwillingly pulled a PeggySue and is trying to [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong fix everything that he can]] before finally [[MilesToGoBeforeISleep taking himself out of the equation]].
