9. Even

Even in the midst of strong suicidal mental pain, even when you're hearing voices, you have the ability to choose what to do. You can change your thoughts. You can choose new ways of thinking. 

Sometimes a change in thinking is made possible by a change in medication, or your living environment. In order to survive the severe psychic pain of mental illness,  you must develop a way to live from moment to moment. That is often what you're already doing when you live with strong, severe mental pain.  You must not do anything to hurt yourself.
