In Canada if you admit to a therapist that you experience suicidal ideation what happens? Are you committed, put on pills, put on a list, or do you just work through it verbally?
Pills and therapy. If you sound dead serious on suicide like "I'm going to kill myself asap" then they'll put you on suicide watch, if that's the kind of list you're talking about?

By actual law and the rules of the profession, everything you say to a therapist stays in the room with only two exceptions. If you convince them that you are an imminent (as in right this minute) threat to yourself or others, they can call the cops. Otherwise everything stays in the room, and the shrink decides (with your agreement) whether talk or meds is best.

Sort of, I'd be worried about losing certain privileges in order to reduce my end of life options down the road if there was no improvement from therapy. I wouldn't want to have my driver's license revoked so that I can't use my car as a method for suicide, for example.
