Please take a while to look at these pages and consider whether you might be suffering from bipolar illness. Treatment these days is safe and effective.
Talking About Suicide
"If your loved one or friend seems at risk, don't be afraid or reluctant to ask whether he or she is thinking about suicide. Talking about suicide does not increase its risk, but isolation, hopelessness and feeling alone do."

Suicide is Painless
No it's not. It hurts a lot of other people—especially those who love you most.
Thinking about suicide, however, is unavoidable. Sitting in a dark corner, drenched in self-pity, while considering the means of ending it all, and the reasons why one should, is just another facet of being a basket weaver. For me this is nothing to worry about, as long as it is restricted to just thinking about it. I have a set of really, really sad songs to play at such times. At such times, you can get into a sad song in ways that are just not possible at other times. Here's my list, but no doubt you have your own musical preferences.
Risk of Suicide
"By some estimates people with bipolar disorder are at 15 times the risk for committing suicide of people in the general population. Up to 15% of people with bipolar disorder die by suicide; as many as 50% attempt suicide at least once in their lives.""
David J. Miklowitz, "The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guide."
"Nevertheless, the rate of suicide deaths in persons with bipolar disorder is many times that seen in the general population—in some studies, thirty to nearly eighty times higher."
Francis M. Mondimore, "Bipolar Disorder A Guide for Families and Patients."
Thoughts of Suicide
"Tragically, suicidal thoughts and feelings are a part of bipolar illness, connected with its biological and genetic mechanisms. We know that levels of serotonin are lower in the brains of people who attempt or complete suicide. In other words, suicidal impulses are related to the neurophysiology of your disorder; they are not caused by moral failing or weakness on your part.
Therefore, you should not feel alone with, or ashamed of, suicidal thoughts. Virtually every person with bipolar disorder has entertained the idea of suicide at one point or another."
David J. Miklowitz, "The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guide."
"It is important to see the development of suicidal feelings in a bipolar patient as a very dangerous symptom of serious illness, just like the onset of chest pains in a heart patient. When they occur, it's not time to wonder about what they mean, it's time to call for help. And just as with the development of chest pains in a heart patient, the development of suicidal feelings in a mood-disorder patient is often a reason for hospitalization."
Francis M. Mondimore, "Bipolar Disorder A Guide for Families and Patients."
People with bipolar disorder are at a greatly increased risk of suicide. Suicidal thoughts and feelings should be taken seriously.
