I don't tell them, but somehow he figures it out usually before the end of the session and we end up talking about it. When I'm really suicidal, I'm never worried about being hospitalized. I've been there, and it's a relief to me when I'm suicidal because then I don't have to focus so much energy on being safe. So I'm not worried anymore when it comes out that I'm having suicidal thoughts. I think most people's worst case scenario isn't bad for me.

But I don't bring up suicidal thoughts by myself. If he brings it up, I'll talk about it but won't say much, just the bare truth.
