Hi PC,
The S word, I think about it, I've told my therapist that if life gets unbearable I will consider what she calls checking myself out. No, it shouldn't be on the table, but sometimes like the elephant in the room it shows up.
Alcohol isn't the answer either, but for me it takes the edge off, but I can handle it and I don't know your history with it.
Maybe go to a movie? Movies for me have always been a good escape, I live someone else's life for a few hours. I suggest a comedy, but then I love a good "downer" film. Keep in mind my degree in Film History is rearing it's useless knowledge, so take my advice with salt on your popcorn.
