I'm suppose to find a reality check that works.

That sounds like a really good approach!
Regarding inpatient, I agree that it is a matter of "presently" when it comes to being a danger to oneself or others. About keeping it to yourself… You know it's true that they can only do their best when they have all the information. But we know that isn't always easy. I'm totally guilty of withholding information, so don't want to be a hypocrite. But perhaps to see it through the filter of MM's series of questions would make a good approach?? I don't know, just a thought (and I might not be making sense! Mind's burdened tonight.).
Here's a question. Let's remove inpatient from the equation… Does that help in how you feel about talking about it?
