Sounds like she has good reason to be concerned. She likely took notes to document her concerns and your thoughts. Suicide and self-harm are things that need watching closely. Sometimes we have an unconscious death-wish, even as we protest. We might only want the pain to die, but it isn't easily separated.
I'm glad you were so honest with her. Your therapist needs to know what sent you to the edge. It is awfully hard to avoid severe stress so having a safety net in place is always a good idea. It isn't all that uncommon to reach this state when working through old issues. It tears you up in a way that nothing else does. I wish it was less painful but reconstructing requires a certain amount of demolition. Just keep that hard hat on.
I'm thinking about you.
