Good psychotherapy: Depending on an initial evaluation, medication might also be helpful. But, careful talk therapy might be the best way to diffuse this symptom that is frightening to you and would be to others too. If there is an actual danger of fulfilling suicide - inpatient safety might be needed. I'm glad you ask - that's a good sign for success in treatment. Best wishes!
