Struggling with Suicidal Thoughts and Dysfunctional Family

I've been pretty suicidal on and off for months and the problems that I have are because of my very dysfunctional family that I'm in and I know if I tell them the issues they'll just discount it or downplay it and not be supportive. what do I do?

A therapist can be helpful but not always helpful

I have thought of that but that won't fix the pain or issues that I have. They are wanting to help but they don't know how to. They are helping me try to find a therapist

I would say avoid them as much as possible. I know that it sounds rude but if your family can't support you or down playing things then why do you deal with stress coming from someone who has been there
