I deal with it by taking my meds, watching TV or Netflix, Listening to music, playing my guitar and petting my cat. Just about anything to keep my mind distracted so I'm not thinking about stuff. I also try to be grateful because there are a lot of people that have things a lot worse than me. I hope that helps a little

Medication helps me. I started taking walk last year. I'm going to walk again when the weather get's better. Jon's right being grateful goes a long way.

There's a good site to checkout if you are feeling suicidal it's called Metanoia.org/suicide.
Also there is a book I refer to when I'm feeling suicidal it's called A Reason To Live - edited by Melody Beattie. It's out of print but you can get it off Amazon for a cheap price. I definately recommend this book. It gives alternatives-immediate ones and ones that take a little longer and alternatives to bring change. I find it to be a very helpful book.
