Dear, I can understand your emotions.you need to understand your anxiety disorder and suicidal ideation first. Please understand, anxiety is part of your body's defense mechanism and therefore it cannot be cured. When you feel excess anxiety due to your own physical and mental overtures, it is called anxiety disorder. Due to anxiety disorder, you are depressed and therefore you feel despondent, dejected and feel like committing suicide. These are normal.Treatment is management. Because you cannot exist without anxiety and therefore complete anxiety cure is impossible. Understanding the symptoms, accepting the symptoms and learn to live with it, manage those symptoms is the treatment. Even medicines are not required. Psychotherapy, life style changes and relaxation therapy will help immensely. Go to www.excelatlife.com and read articles and hear audio files. Hops this answers your query. I am available for futher clarifications. take care.
