Depression and Suicide


Sometimes depression can cause people to feel like putting themselves in harms way, or killing themselves. Although the majority of people with depression do not die by suicide, having depression does increase suicide risk compared to people without depression.

If you are thinking about suicide, get help immediately:

* Call your doctors office.
* Call 911 for emergency services.
* Go to the emergency room of the nearest hospital.
* Ask a family member or friend to take you to the hospital or call your doctor.
* Call the toll free, 24 hour hotline of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1 800 273 TALK (1 800 273 8255) to be connected to a trained counselor at the suicide crisis center nearest you.

"Sometimes the doctor will try a variety of antidepressants before finding the most effective medication or combination of medications."
