[QUOTE=Nitro836;39007704]So a schizophrenic that can't speak coherently, is panicked, very deluded and/or hallucinating a lot for example? Emphasis on "for example"[/QUOTE] The main criteria for admission is based upon whether you are deemed safe to yourself and/or others based on your mental condition. If you are deluded into thinking that you were abducted at an early age, you probably won't require admission; If you believe that others are aliens and hurt them out of fright, you probably will require admission. It depends on the present circumstances, as the beds are seldom unoccupied. Speaking incoherently is almost always a side effect (assuming you mean slurred, feel free to correct me) of medication, therefore a treatment plan for this patient will already be in place and hospitalisation unnecessary.

Honestly one of my biggest fears is being perfectly sane but being locked in a mental hospital with no way to make the doctors and staff take me seriously enough to think that I'm sane and let me out.
[QUOTE=mysteryman;39002002]I wonder how much money he will get out of this lawsuit. I [B]hope[/B] loads.[/QUOTE] Fixed. OnTopic, This would be one of my worst nightmares, not just the injection, but that because your in a mental hospital, no-one believes anything you say anyway. I hope to hell he gets what he deserves from the hospital.
