TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
Is suicidal thinking a stage? I have medicine for it but i don't take it. I know that it helps but it's just gay and i refuse to take it. But like am i going to get over this or is there something wrong with me?

TEEN LINE WROTE:
Hey, thanks for emailing TEEN LINE. It seems like you're contemplating suicide which really concerns me. It is important to take medication as prescribed by a doctor when the condition is serious like depression. I urge you to speak with a doctor, school counselor, parent, or friend about your medication and emotional state. If you have any questions or just want to talk, we're open everyday from 6 to 10 p.m. PST. Our number is (310) 855-4673. If you find yourself having suicidal thoughts and we're not open, please call the Suicide Prevention Hotline at (877) 727-4747. They're open 24 hours. Good luck,

a TEEN LINE teen
