Similarly, you owe it to others - and not just those close to you. If you are sick enough that you are having dangerous thoughts, you should be under more intensive care.
I am pretty sure that no matter your region that your psychiatrist owes an obligation to society and its safety first. Not even a clergy person can use the argument of privilege with respect to information regarding public safety.
