Thanks for your concern!
I don't think I qualify for PTSD as I only have some relatively mild symptoms for that diagnosis. Right now I'm lucky to have my T to talk to, but like I've mentioned above I would be terminating soon and that in itself is very stressful. The suicidal thoughts are partially caused by stress, but due more to quite an inexplicable confluence of other factors that I myself don't fully comprehend. Could have to do with the depressive phase of my bipolar though - it comes around whenever I'm depressed.
