I go for a walk, listen to music anything to get myself calm. Suicide thoughts come in waves and if u can put yr thoughts on something else it will let those waves go by.

Mindfulness is really helpful

Always always tell your Doctor your thoughts... you are not and I mean not alone

Thoughts pass, thoughts are not the truth. Our minds can make new thoughts. don't be alone with suicidal thoughts. Call a helpline. Best thing to do - don't keep the thoughts to yourself - they go around and around (churning!). Tell someone, and it has somewhere to go...and become a conversation.
