It very much depends on what type of day I am having. I only know that when I wake up each morning due to the nature of health. If its a bad day, ideation is rampant mostly, but I have learnt to cope with it. If its a decent/good day, then its only when I am alone that I tend to think too much, thats when distraction is my friend.
I tend to think that it is now a part of my life. A drug addict is always a drug addict, a alcoholic is always a alcoholic, suicide will always be with me now, unless something drastically changes, which I very much doubt. Depression will also likely end up being around for the long haul as well, although right now, I am in a better head space than I have been for about a year.
