I know exactly what you mean. I fight off suicidal thoughts even when I don't feel particularly depressed. It's helped me a lot to work with a DBT therapist. I think suicide seems like kind of release valve for me. A way out if I need it. There is something almost reassuring about suicidal ideation though it also terrifies me because I have come very close to dying on three occasions now. But this is the kind of thing therapy is good for.
