If you have a therapist, he or she should welcome talk of your suicidal thoughts and intent. If not, the therapist is not well trained and another should be sought. Other people, such as friends, may not be the best to share suicidal thoughts with, as they are not trained to deal with this. They may end up saying the wrong thing or feel burdened by the talk or just not know how to respond.
