For obvious reasons, I've been careful about sharing anything about my suicidal ideation/suicidality with my therapist. I'd broached the topic very lightly during one of my first sessions, but in loose terms. The other day, I finally managed to bring up some past suicidality I had, and some of my feelings about it now. I managed not to lie to her, without sharing anything I didn't want to. She didn't overreact or make me feel uncomfortable at all, we just had a chill conversation. I just wanted to share my positive news :) Small steps are still steps forward. I know not everyone is lucky to have a similar experience.

This is great. I've been careful as well. I think you took a good approach, being honest without revealing anything you weren't comfortable with.
Thanks! And she reassured me I didn't have to share anything I didn't want to as well. Obviously it might have been different if I'd spoken about anything current, but it was easier because it was stuff from the past. And she helps me to set boundaries, including with her. I've definitely had a bit of a vulnerability hangover as always, but I feel positive about our discussion.
Have you managed to broach the topic, or been more on the careful side? No pressure to respond if that's not comfortable :)
