Suicidal ideation should be assessed during regular intervals throughout therapy (every week during the therapy session is not uncommon). Often, as the individual who suffers from a depressive disorder is beginning to feel the energizing effects of a medication, they will be at higher risk for acting on their suicidal thoughts. Care should be used at this time and hospitalization may need to be again considered.
Yeah, it was a period I had just increased my anti-D doses and taken on new meds as well. So it wasn't just the lousy relationship and the resultant OD-ing on meds and alcohol because I felt like shit. I was in extreme danger all this while since I stepped into that psychiatrist's office.
