“Suicidal ideation,” or suicidal thoughts, refers to a range of thoughts and preoccupations about death and suicide. It can be a symptom of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions — but it can also occur without a mental health diagnosis.
If you or a loved one has mild to moderate suicidal thoughts, seek help at an outpatient mental health facility like Santa Clarita Behavioral Health. For active suicidal thoughts or plans, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. If there is immediate danger, call 911.
At Santa Clarita Behavioral Health, we provide a safe, supportive environment where patients are closely monitored and receive individualized care. We offer IOP and PHP programs along with various evidence-based therapies to address suicidal thoughts and support recovery.
