I get exactly the same thing, and I'm not quite sure how to deal with it either. But when I am feeling like that I just keep reminding myself that just like before, it has got better and sometimes I don't want to die. Its really hard work, exhausting, but force yourself through it and sleep alot if you can.
I don't know if this is for everyone, but I find that writing down what I am thinking (rather than talking to someone else) can help, because it gets my thoughts out without me analyzing the conversation over and over in my head. Ofcourse if you think you are getting close to doing something, you should definately talk to someone.
I think today is the first day in a few months that I've actually thought 'I don't think I want to die yet', and I'm quite pleased with myself for thinking that!
