When mentioning my depression I've had doctors ask me if I have thoughts of self harm or suicide and I always answer no. But that's a lie. 

I've been told that if I tell I doctor that I have suicidal thoughts they'll have me taken away right then and there to a hospital and I won't be able to talk to my friends or family because they'll take my phone away and I wont be able to contact anyone. 

I'm scared that if I'm honest I'll be forced to be taken to the hospital and I won't be able to tell my friends and family where I'm at. 

Is this what really happens? Should I keep lying? I don't want to be taken away or anything.
