John,
You probably need more good info than I can give you, but you are not alone in having almost constant suicidal ideation. I don't know that there is a quick solution to ending the thoughts, but I know some people take meds that help.
I'm hoping they will respond to your post.
In the meantime, distraction is a good thing. Anything you can do to distract yourself and get your mind on other things is probably good (as long as the other things aren't hurtful). While my focus isn't at its peak, I can work on crossword puzzles or even play some computer games that are rather absorbing. Certainly these are temporary measures, but may help until someone responds with more info on meds. Sorry this is so lame.
If you do feel suicidal, please post, and if you're in crisis, please get in-person help.
Good luck,
Shar
