They don't even give you a choice here with attempts, they put you on a 72 hr hold.
We've been having strong sui thoughts recently, also. Last couple of weeks... We are in IOP at the moment, the T asked if we need a higher level of care on Thursday. We told her no, mostly because we don't want to back up to PHP or into the hospital again.

Hi Chaos,
It's nice to hear from you.
Thanks so much for sharing!
I am sorry for all you suffer. You have so very much on your plate. I do know your chronic pain, alone, is extremely challenging (we used to post in the chronic pain forum together.).
I do understand why you told the therapist what you told her; I am just very concerned about your safety.
Maybe there are some specific signs you might watch for as indicators to get help as soon as possible?
I am hoping there is a way for you to keep yourselves safe?
