John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
It's actually normal for people to be inquisitive about life and death - it's the great mystery. If you're going beyond this into planning, and fantasizing about how to kill yourself, pick up the phone now and call 911. Your life is precious, and there are so many connections that perhaps you have lost sight of. The pain will go away and it will change, but it starts by reaching out.

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Suicidal thoughts often emerge when emotional pain has exceeded a person’s perceived capacity to carry it, and no other form of relief feels imaginable. I approach suicidal ideation directly and without panic, shame, or avoidance, distinguishing a desire for pain to end from intent to die while taking every level of risk seriously. Treatment includes ongoing assessment, collaborative safety planning, strengthening support, and addressing the experiences beneath the crisis. Safety remains foundational, but the work does not end with keeping someone alive; it also asks what has made life feel unlivable and what must change for genuine connection, agency, and reasons for living to become possible. This reflects established guidance emphasizing direct assessment and collaborative safety planning.
