Medications are a common way that people succumb to suicide. Ensure that you are removing those from your house or cabinets once they are no longer needed. Suicidal ideations can manifest physical pains and the painkillers that are prescribed seem like a logical course of action. The Motrin 800 or Tylenol with Codeine that was prescribed for a root canal 6 months ago that is still sitting in your cabinet is not an answer for the manifested pains of depression or emotional trauma. Make sure that you flush the medications that can be flushed or return the unused or unnecessary medicines that are lingering around months after the requirement. The website below is a good start, but if you have any questions, reach out and we will find the answer for you.
