Hello,

First of all, suicidal thoughts are not something that can be ignored. They are certainly alarming signs of underlying psychological state. The following are few causes of suicidal ideation:
1) Major depressive disorder
2) Bipolar disorder
3) Schizophrenia
4) Severe OCD with depression
5) Substance abuse disorders
6) Eating disorders

Any person who has suicidal thoughts should be evaluated for the following:
1) Any anxiety related issues
2) Any substance abuse
3) Any drastic mood disturbances
4) If female, any menstrual disturbances
5) Detailed history taking is essential and patient behavior is to be observed by a psychiatrist.

So, kindly take your friend to a psychiatrist for help. I can't prescribe medicine without proper history and without talking to the patient. Take him to the doctor as soon as possible.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
