Tell them that you are *afraid* that you will soon want to put your plan into action. If you can give them an example of how you are closer to wanting this than you were in the past (i.e. "I feel more and more hopeless because I don't feel that I can adequately take care of my son - these days I can't even [fill in the blank]").
Tell them that you don't have a plan with date/place/time for executing your plan, but that you are afraid that you aren't too far away from that.
I'm assuming that what I have suggested here is true for you. I'm NOT suggesting that you lie. I have never made an attempt, but I have been hospitalized twice - both because I was afraid that I would do something.
Best of luck to you.
