Hey Justin, I completely understand needing a break, especially if it has you thinking about suicide. Unfortunately, if you don't feel like telling the school is an option, you're options are limited. As said above, they have policies in place specifically for this situation. You could go to your doctor and see if you could get an excuse from them to miss classes based on how you're feeling. I am not comfortable telling you how to fake illnesses etc. to miss school because I don't believe that it is the right way to go about this.
