I never been. The only way here is to commit a crime and be court ordered.

Aside from that we must survive a suicide attempt, which is also against the law, and therefor commit a crime and be court ordered.

Where are you? You can’t even go inpatient if you’re suicidal? You have to actually try first? That’s ■■■■■■ up.

No. They wont. It doesnt matter if you walk in there and tell them your hallucinating 24/7 , the voices are tell me to stab myself, am very paranoid.

I was sure they would take me as I was registered gun owner at the time too. But I guess they dont check that even if you tell them.

We have a lot of stuff happen here .We have over i think 250 counties. Only 7 counties have state mental health coverage. That coverage is saved for the people described above.

They are working to cut me off now. I “missed” 2 appointments cause I was told the doctor is not there and i could go home.

Suicide survivors are arrested at the hospital. Given a court date, fined, refered to probation officers.

That’s horrifying imo. :confused:

Oh yeah, to contribute to this thread, it’s not yet been a year since I got sick and had to go to the hospital.

I dont understand your post.

Liberal/conserv isnt the issue is it? It the mental health system is being combined in to the justice system.

From 1990 to 2016 I was psyche-wardless. So 26 years. I know those bastards miss me but I’m out for good. Until my next time of course. Next time I go in I’m taking no prisoners. I walked in my last psyche ward last time like a lamb led to slaughter. I vow never again. Saw a great fight inside last time though. Kind of made the whole stay worth it.

Yes, but that’s largely due to conservative policy. But I won’t say more than that so that this thread doesn’t get locked.

About two years when my brother was conservator, then a public guardian became my conservator. I only got to leave after a county representative came a few times to interview me in private and determined that I was doing well enough to be released. So when my court date came up, the judge let me out. Only went back twice after that, stopped going because they tried to conserve me again. Haven’t been to the hospital for about 15-16 years.

20 years, I was 19 years old and now I’m 39 years old. That was the only time I went to the hospital. I’ve been close to going like 3 or 4 times though.

The last time was in 1992. I was married then. Just shows you what a bad marriage will do to you.
