Hmmm...mine has an interesting way to question me. When she's asked "*how* suidical are you?" I never knew how to answer. Moods and thoughts can change so much and so quickly. If I seem a lot better, she may not ask.
Now she often she asks how much time can go by where I'm not thinking about it. A few hours? A day? And I try to tell her how intense or compelling it is, whether it's been relegated to the back burner. She knows the thoughts have pretty much taken up permanent residence in my mind - at least for a while now. And she knows I won't volunteer info, she generally needs to ask directly.
