Fleeting suicidal thoughts?

Kelsey

During all the Christmas festivities over the past few days, I've been having some fleeting suicidal thoughts such as "All of this is too much work, I would be better off dead so I wouldn't have to handle it". I struggle with major depressive disorder and anxiety, but I'm highly functioning on a day to day basis. Is this common/normal, to have thoughts like this? I'm not planning to kill myself, but the idea doesn't seem that bad.
