You are saying medications cured to some extent but having thoughts abt suicide. Pls have another consultation and ask is it the antidepressant which is causing it? Some antidepressants like fluoxetine may cause suicidal ideas..

Please relax.... the world is full of people to support you. Please go and meet a psychologist or a counselor and start your consultation regularly. You will definetely find solutions to live and also happily and successfully. All the counsellor would give you is clarity to come out of that depression and take decisions on your own.. Donot worry...

Antidepressants take some time to relieve depression. Since you are having suicidal ideas frequently you have a severe depression. It is a psychiatric emergency. I suggest you should get admitted and seek quick addresal of your suicidal ideation. Talk to your psychiatrist about it.
