Suggest Treatment For Suicidal Thoughts In A Person

My daughter has been put in the hospital at the Ephraim McDowell Regional Medical Center March of last year with wanting to kill herself. Dr. John Allaham put her on some meds. She did great for awhile and about 3 or 4 months ago the meds stop working and now she isn t on anything. She is almost back to the point she was in from the beginning all but wanting to kill herself. I m going to try to get her back in to see the doctor tomorrow. But what do I do until than?

Dear user
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your details. Anybody who expresses suicidal thoughts or intentions should be taken very seriously. Please do not discount the illness as simple one. Earlier the treatment could have been not for depression. Depressive disorder could be the forefront psychiatric problem which caused the suicidal tendencies in your daughter. I suggest, do not delay, do consult a psychiatrist at the earliest for a comprehensive depressive disorder treatment.
