Frigid water really has helped me get out of acutely dysphoric (but not suicidal) states. The effect only lasts a few hours, and after a week or so, doesn't do much of anything but test my willpower. I've had the same experience with intense aerobic exercise. Might be something to do with hypothermia & glutamate?
