Hello Sdjeff
I'm very sorry to hear you are having such a rough time and having to deal with these problems while you are depressed makes it even tougher.
How about seeing your doctor? Maybe a new medication or just talking about your problems could help. If you posted the drugs you have tried perhaps you could get some opinions here. There seem to be many knowledgeable and caring contributors.
You mentioned your daughter...when you have suicidal thoughts, would it help to try and replace these with thoughts of her? I know it is easier said than done but I think it is an advantage of having children. It gives you a strong reason to fight these thoughts and urges.
Let us know how you are going.
Sabre
