My opinion would be to tell the therapist the truth. You, or your insurance company is paying good money for the therapy. In order for you to get the help you need out of the therapy, you should be honest with your therapist. If you lie about any aspect of it, you are sabotaging your own results, and wasting your own time in therapy.

If you do not trust this therapist enough to tell him the truth, then you really should request a different therapist. Therapy requires trust, so you need a Therapist that you trust enough to be honest with. If your only concern is that you have already lied, I'm sure the therapist has been lied to before, and will understand your reasons for lying.

They might even consider your new found honesty a "breakthrough" and congratulate you for it.

Is suicide the best answer?

I hate to admit, but it took a suicide attempt by myself, and very near to death occurence to realize that suicide was not the answer. If you are having thoughts of suicide you must seek psychiatric help and you must be honest. I had seen therapists for some time, yet I was not honest and it did not help myself. YOU MUST BE HONEST. Unfortunately it took the pain I had caused myself by attempting suicide and the pain I caused my family to realize that I had to be honest with my therapist and psychiatrist as well as realize that no matter what is causing you pain, suicide is not the answer. I can look back now, 8 months later, and realize how sad i was then and how screwed up my thoughts were but now I am actually happy. Unfortunately it took me a suicidal attempt to realize this, but I feel that if you are honest with yourself as well as with your help, then you can beat depression. If you have any questions of how I felt at points of depression please respond to this and I will do my best to respond.

Can a person have suicidal thoughts without being depressed?

Normally healthy people do not entertain suicidal thoughts. A form a depression or other mental or brain problems are usually the impetus for suicide attempts. Some people who are dying will sometimes entertain ideas of attempting suicide. The problem is that most of the time a suicide attempt does not work but will get the person the real help they need. So rather than making any attempts at suicide it is better to get the problems resolved as best as possible. Some people fail to realize that a brain tumor or a simple, treatable sickness can make them feel suicidal. That is why I say it is better to get an exam by a doctor to see why the person has suicidal thoughts in the first place. If you are doing this then call one of the Hotlines or see your doctor right away or go to the emergency room. You have my prayers if you are this way. The Hotline numbers are in the telephone book and probably online too.
