I don't know how it works in America but here in the UK I have just been going through the nightmare of the disability benefit system, with all of my mental health issues the fact that I am suicidal (but bare in mind I act on the ideal) they have taken this as a demonstration that the extent my other mental disorders are effecting me severely as a result they have awarded me the higher rate meaning more money. They have only done this for 6 months though in case miraculously I will have a sudden desire to live by then. Crazy!!!

I am not recommending you act on it to show your serious because remember it does work, you have to be able to deal with that consequence so you need to be serious not playing to make a point. The moment you make the effort that could the very last day you will exist.

Do not ignore this, or think of it in terms of your benefit.... it is a major warning sign that something more sinister is going on that you need help for!!! wanting to kill yourself means you are being tormented so much that you no longer can see anything but the need to end this is what you need to concentrate on. The reason for these thoughts is what the benefit people need know and so I would suggest you start there with your doctor or T if you have one. I hope this helps you xxx
