How do i ask my parents for therapy?

i realized how close i am to suicide, and even though i want to, my parents wouldn't be able to be happy if i did. I told them a couple months ago that i wanted to kill myself, but it didn't go over well. They just got really sad, and i basically pretended everything was ok after that, to keep them happy.

Answer:
HOW?
God, I don't know.
With a German accent?
Just do it.
Say "I want to go to therapy."
And if they ask why, say "Because I think I need it."
And if they really push it, then tell them "Because I feel suicidal. Can I go?"
You need to be upfront with your parents and talk to them about what is really going on for you. Be honest with yourself and your parents and let them know you are serious and you need help right away.
Do you have someone that will sit down with you to talk to them?

If not, ask someone; teacher, coach, minister/priest, CCD/Religouis teacher, friend, friend's family, etc.

Good Luck, Please stay safe!!
i know parents are weired they might make fun of you when you ask for therapy and say nothing is wrong with you,so you should seek therapy by your self go to the school counselor she should help,good luck
