I understand you want to help your cousin..but getting one night sleep won't help her go of suicidal thoughts.
You need to understand that.
These thoughts are recurring thoughts..not under one's control.
Next Steps
you can consult me if you want to start psychotherapy

A psychiatrist will help you with the sleeping pills and dosage. I would suggest she immediately gets counselling since she has suicidal tendencies. We need to make sure she is safe first. So talk to her and ask her if she needs help and if she says yes, then give me a call or any psychologist that she feels she will be comfortable with. Don't only rely on sleeping pills because medicines will give immediate relief. Counselling will help her deal with her issue internally.
