Hmmmm mildly suicidal never got me locked up, it was the attempting it or the not mild cases that did.

You are right that you can do it where ever you are if the intent is there. I was being discharged because supposedly I was ok when I knew I wasn't. Ended up in ICU in a coma before they ever got me discharged.

So glad that dark period of my life is over that lasted 13 years. It is a shock I survived it. Had no idea at the time just how much my home environment was such a driving force into my depression. Once I got out of the marriage I started to heal. Back to being healthier now than ever before in my life. No lockup necessary & am surrounded by amazing, wonderful, supportive people who are better than any of my family ever was all 54 years of my life before finding my freedom. My major depression was definitely situational & no therapy understood what was going on
