Not everyone needs to go in - most dont. But some people react badly and have history of issues with med changes. Or maybe if a doctor wants to put a bipolar person on an anti depressant and that bipolar person has gone manic on them before, they will try them on them in a safe hospital setting.
I agree on this one 
No you cant - and we dont. Its a case by case basis - not a one size fits all, toss everyone out within a few days regardless of whether theyre ready or not.

I have to disagree on this one , we have no resources or backup . the meds are near all generic and after care is if you have life long depression, a 10 minute visit to a shrink every 6 months, miss your appointment and that's you finished, out the door gone ,we get a different shrink every time mostly students. If a med cost money we don't get it at hospital . I get escitaloram from GP citalopram is cheaper so that's what you get at hospital , I have been on both and Lexapro, escitalopram is far better.
