Who decides whether or not I’ll go to the Mental hospital?

 

SHOULD I GO TO A MENTAL HOSPITAL QUIZ FIRST??

In most cases, you’ll need to make that decision for yourself. The laws vary by state, but usually you can only be hospitalized against your will if you present a “clear and present” danger to yourself or others. In other words, it has to seem like you’re really going to hurt someone if you aren’t hospitalized. If that is the case, you might be checked into the hospital by a friend or family member, or a mental health professional like a therapist or doctor. But more likely, if one of those people is worried about you, they will try to convince you to check yourself in voluntarily.

 

In some circumstances, you may want to consider creating a Psychiatric Advance Directive before going to the hospital. This is a written legal document that expresses your wishes about what types of treatments, services and other assistance you want or don’t want when you are having difficulty communicating or making decisions. You can also specify which facility you’d prefer to be taken to.

 

Go for a quiz that will tell you if you need to go to a mental hospital and receive professional help with your mental health. If you do, do not be ashamed. You aren't crazy, it is more common than you think. Talk to someone. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger because of their mental health.
