Work with a trusted family member or friend, or a professional to develop a suicide safety plan. It is helpful to involve important people around you, as they need to know how best to care for you and keep you safe if you’re thinking about suicide.
Try to find a time when you’re feeling well, calm and clear-headed, rather than when you’re suicidal or distressed. Put your suicide safety plan in writing and keep it in a place where you can easily find it.
