I wish I knew what little ray of hope would help you at the moment :hug:

Granted, cognitive techniques are not very exciting, but, OTOH:

Suicidal thought processes are viewed here as causal (as opposed to merely correlated) factors in suicidality.

And CBT includes behavior therapy, including doing the opposite of how you feel in order to help change your mood:

The best way to think about it is that emotions love themselves. They just keep themselves going. That's why it's so difficult to change. Because they go round and round and round.

One of the ways that you can change your emotion is to just reverse the circle. We just start with action that is opposite and that circle starts going in the other way. And the emotion starts going down. Kind of like a miracle.
