Being Sucidial
Hi! This is my first time on this site. I think that it is important to talk about being suicidal. I have been hospitalized for suicidal thoughts and this is not a cry for help or that I am going to kill myself. I wonder why still once a week my brain has suicidal thoughts. When I talk with a certain friend I tend to act in crisis to get negative attention. Is this bad? Will these thoughts ever go away? I know that this isn't really sex related.

Hi melissasoccer6,
So, helping people address their mental health issues is outside of the scope of what we can do. But, something we can do is help you figure out what supports you could potentially access that would be a better fit for your needs (such as managing the fact that you're having suicidal thoughts on a regular basis). Since it sounds like you've had some contact with mental health systems before, are you currently working with a therapist or a psychiatrist to manage your depression?

And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
