Yeah suicide is dicey....supposedly they are looking for intent, a method and a time frame but some freak out if you even mention it at all. Are you looking for meds or just talk? It could take a while to get a doc so just to mention most GPs will prescribe an AD and it takes a while to kick in so the sooner the better.
