I think it generally depends on if you are spending time thinking about HOW you might kill yourself, if you have a plan or a timeline, etc. If a person does have a plan and timeline they may be hospitalized; if it is more nihilistic ideation or thoughts then I think that outpatient crisis counseling/ med change is usually recommended.
