A member asked:

Do doctors "count" a suicide attempt if no medical help was provided and person survived? like if the rope didn't hold or body threw up the pills.

That would be: considered an unsuccessful suicide attempt. See you suffer from depression & addiction. If you are having thoughts about killing yourself, get seen at the nearest emergency room now. Have a friend or relative drive you or call 911 for emergency services for transport. You can call the National suicide hotlines 24/7 at 1-800-suicide (1-800-784-2433) or 1-800-273 – talk (1-800-273-8255) for support
