I'm having recurring suicidal thoughts and I was wondering if anyone could help me with coping strategies.

Thank you for sharing! I think that self-care works the best. Like doing something nice for yourself and having compassion for your self. I hope this helps.

Thank you... Just knowing I'm not alone helps

You are definitely not alone.

Do you have any hobbies you enjoy doing? Do you like watching comedy shows ?

Always know that we are here. If there are times that you need to actually talk to someone there are excellent Hotlines like The Samaritans. The key is knowing that you have options and that you are never alone here.

Thank you so much. It's nice to know there's people out there who understand.

Smokr, I think one of the things that helps is keeping your brain occupied. Maybe watch a funny show or exercise. Whatever it is that brings enjoyment. If it gets to the point where it is overwhelming than I’d suggest you contact a suicide hotline. Here’s a link with some resources. afsp.org/suicide-prevention...
