Simple answer is, yes!

I am in therapy to heal and so my thoughts irrespective of what they are have to be aired out in the open..I was actually asked by my T to make a verbal contract with her that I would not attempt suicide whilst in therapy. Instead, I agreed to use the contact numbers that she has given me on my care plan if I ever felt like I wanted to again! I agreed to do this! Therapy is about being ready to heal and so you just gotta be honest with yourself first and then your T, who is there to faciltitate your road to recovery.

I guess I feel that if someone really wants out then perhaps they are not totally ready to heal - you have to have some stability within yourself to go to the places that we have to visit in therapy. So being honest about your thoughts versus your true intentions enables you to get the right support and identify exactly where you are in the healing process.
