Yes, please do get : Help now. Ensure that your family physician is aware of your thoughts about suicide. A medical evaluation can help to insure that you don't have an underlying medical condition that is contributing to depressed mood. You also need to see a clinical psychologist or a psychiatrist (people often see both). If you have an imminent urge to kill yourself- you would need eval at your nearest emergency >.

SI but want to live: Yes yes yes! talk with your psychiatrist first thing in the morning. In fact, leave him/her a message tonight! thoughts about suicide are a sign of the severity of your depression. Treatment should be addressed to ensure you get better and that the thoughts do not get worse. It is essential you work honestly and closely with your psychiatrist for your recovery and wellness!
