Endocrinologist 's  Response
Hi
"some times i'm thinking of death"- this is what is known as 'Suicidal ideation' which occurs in severe form of depression. The symptoms you are describing is classical of clinical depression. Though Thyroid and depression have a link, having suicidal ideation a serior issue. You are having classical clinical depression and I would advise you to consult a Psychiatrist ASAP.
