I'm wondering why you asked if you don't feel you would ever commit suicide yourself. Perhaps your question wasn't really about whether people with your problems commit suicide but perhaps that is an underlying fear of yours? It's okay if it is, and maybe that is really what you need to talk to your therapist about if it is concerning to you. It is quite possible to be determined to not be one of those tragic statistics and yet at the same time have fears about it. I don't think that is all that unusual. Most therapists don't get too terribly worried out about discussions of suicide; it's pretty normal discussion actually and they take it in stride. It is at the point that a person moves from thoughts to ideations and plans that a therapist really puts it on the radar as a safety concern.
Thanks for this!
