Dry rice extract might be an option, if you can find it.

Yesterday at lunch time at least six cop cars came roaring into the street I live on to deal with something next door. The police log on line said a "suicide threat". I'm not necessarily buying that. It was a pretty major response for a possible suicide. I was looking out my front door window...
