I really urge you to call a crisis line for help when you are feeling suicidal. Your local county has a crisis line or lines for life is good. I understand uou are in deep pain and it seems the hest way out id suicide. I have had several suicide attempts. I understand your thinking "what if it doesnt work". I have a defibrillator so it would shock me. Nothing lasts forever and pain and depression can get better. You need to find another pyschiatrist. Please reach out to a crisis line for help.

@suscros68 I do use help lines when I get really scared. The problem is sometimes... I don’t want to. It’s like I rebel against my sensible self when I’m emotionally overwhelmed.
Just to clarify, the psychiatrist was a one-off appointment requested by my doctor as a review. I’m definitely not seeing that psychiatrist again though!
I do see a psychologist fortnightly whom I connect with really well. That’s been helping although I still feel awkward and tend to avoid talking about suicidal thoughts and or going into detail about selfharm.
Sometimes I find writing down my thoughts and then giving it to my psych helps me communicate... maybe I will write something before our session this week.
