Hi
Suicidal attempt and intentions indicate severr depression .In india I prefer to treat such patients with MODIFIED ECT .as it is a psychiatric emergency .Anti depressant drugs of SSRI group may also be used for which you have to obtain prescription from psychistrist who will know about it Decision and administration of modified ECT has also to be done by psychiatrist Let me tell you ECT is very effective and safe if administrated by a compitent psychiatrist
Be careful and take care
