Should I stay enrolled in grad school if I’m having suicidal thoughts?

Question

Full disclosure, it’s not school that’s making me feel this way. I can’t pin point where it stems from. It’s collectively where I stand right now. 
I’m one year away from graduating but I don’t know what it’ll cost me.

Answer

Being that you're only 1 year away from graduating if you can mentally handle it and find the time I think you should try and find a therapist to talk to about the way your feeling and make an appointment with your primary doctor to talk about it too. Of course though your mental health is more important than anything else so if you need to take a break from school to fix it then do it. Mental health is so so important.

Answer

PUT YOUR MENTAL HEALTH FIRST!!!! Your degree will mean nothing If you aren’t around to use it!! 
Before dropping out, I suggest speaking with someone! & go from there!!! But overall please seek help!

Answer

Most programs will let you take a semester or two off if you need to. Talk to a therapist now before thoughts turn into plans.

Answer

Would it hurt your mental health to drop out? You should see a therapist, they can help you work through some feelings and make your best possible decisions. I understand how stressful it can be to add school to a busy life, but it's not worth your life! Here's the national suicide hotline phone number 800-273-8255, they also have a chat option. You can find help if you look for it, things can get better.
