I'm proud of you for admitting those thoughts to your therapist. It sounds like you really have a great therapist. Not that you're in such bad shape that you need a great therapist. Or that you should look into finding a bad therapist, but I do have a number (home and office) of one if you're interested :) :) (And that gets 2)
I'm so proud of you for opening up and admitting that. I'm sure it was scary, but did you even think for a second about that dream being related to your recent thoughts? It's funny how things work like that, isn't it? And the reassurance you received from your therapist, how did that make you feel? Your posts sound better. I hope that the clouds in your head have thinned out a bit as well...As for your question...
I admitted to my therapist that I tried to commit suicide the previous night (and please don't post any support posts to me, I'm not depressed anymore and feeling much better :)) and he asked if my mood was any better (HELLO!!!!! I WAS SEVERELY DEPRESSED!!!!), to which I said, no not really. He got on the phone and called the hospital and had me committed. He gave me the option of being voluntarily or involuntarily committed. I chose to go voluntarily, as I knew I could talk my way out in 24 hours. I was released the next day. Saw him a few days later and he told me I was the first client he ever had put in the hospital....I'm not liking Bubba so much...
