Defensive line-up in case of suicidal thoughts:
Remember/make up how much better you are than other people.
Remind yourself pain is just a signal and now just a moment.
Do ten push-ups, walk around the block, drink a V8.
Watch a movie that makes you cry or nearly. Maybe not one about suicide.
Drive out of town in a new direction until a small adventure is had.
Call a parent. Talk about what they're doing.
Go to a park at night in a little-policed area, get naked, run, yell.
Get drunk and read the really good parts of Paradise Lost.
Talk to a random stranger at a bar. Make it about them so they'll go longer.
Do that one thing you swore not to do again. But just the once.
