This is the issue honestly. I've had people tell me that they're falling back into suicidal thinking but refuse to tell their therapist because of this. Like how are you supposed to help someone when unless they put up lies they get thrown into a hospital and isolated? The people I have spoke to say it's terrible and I think it's really not needed if someone is just in bad situation, it should be used if the therapist thinks it's beyond clear that they can't be trusted to not do anything.

Look this won’t happen I’ve told my therapist that I want to kill myself flat out if they’re a good therapist they’ll understand what you mean. They’ll know if you’re truly in a crisis at that single moment or if you’re just disenchanted with life in general. Don’t put up with a bad therapist if you find that you are more stressed about therapy than relieved find a different therapist.

My therapist asks me this frequently. He also states very clearly that it is no reason for worry if suicidal thoughts cross your mind every once in a while, as long as they pass by fairly quickly, don't linger and you don't start out planning your suicide properly.

For me it's the thought of missing work and not being able to pay rent or utilities. Not to say I enjoy my time in, but for a lot of us it's just impractical.
