> How about something like, "I think I need a medication adjustment. Lately I've been frightened, because I find myself having thoughts about suicide -- and I know I don't want to do that. It just feels as though life isn't worth living, and I can't seem to find hope lately." Something that tells him you know that you're not planning suicide, but also conveys just how deeply depressed you're becoming?
