i'm always hesitant to tell my psychologist the way i am really feeling just in case she decides i have to go to hospital. What type of things would make her come to that conclusion?
She would have to think you are seriously at risk of hurting yourself or another person. that said, I knew a suicidal who attempted suicide, but wasn't sent to hospital.
The only way your going to get that kind of attention is if you mention suicide. I would be honest with your shrink otherwise whats the point of going.
she will only send you to a hospital if she thinks you are a serious danger to yourself, for example if she thinks you're on the verge of suicide. i suggest you tell her how you feel because the longer you wait the harder it'll be. i've been seeing my therapist for almost 5 years and i still haven't told her because it keeps getting harder. tell her now, best of luck! xx
Mine always asks me if I feel I would be a threat to myself or others…if so, she could order a 72-hour hospitalization stay for me.
I know it might sound strange, but over the last few weeks I've been so depressed I wish I could've said to someone, "please, I'm really not well, i want to be in hospital" or something to that effect. I have just been feeling so bad and have been to the doctor, but he just says to keep trying the new antidepressant he prescribed. I don't know what else to say, you can only tell the psychologist how you feel
