Ok kids, let’s review the requisites for involuntary hospitalization in the US (specifically regarding suicidal ideation)!
Do you:
Have a plan? ✔️
Have the means to carry out that plan? ✔️
Expressed the intention to carry out that plan in the immediate future? ✔️
If all of the above are true and you tell your mental health professional, then you better pack those bags! If not, you get to go home.
(That said, I’ve at least heard stories of some mental health clinicians apparently not understanding these minimum guidelines and committing people involuntarily with only 1 or 2 of these requisites having been met, so it may be worth it to review these guidelines with your clinician before getting too deep into it)
Hmmmmm
