No doctor is going to help you. This is not like having terminal cancer, where a lot of doctors would be willing to give you access to unlimited morphine. Depression is different. For many people, it passes. People recover or learn to cope. I did. Learned to cope. Therapy helped, especially DBT.
You're fairly young, right? You still have a lot of things that can change and get better over time.
But I don't see why you would expect that saying -- I want to kill myself -- is not going to lead to your ending up on a locked ward.
