venushalley is right

on the other hand if you live in the USA (idk if UK does or not i live in tx) theres more grounds that you are hospitalized for besides being a harm. if you are suicidal or a threat to others yes but the third is if you are unable to care for yourself and are low functioning is reason to hospitalize you.

thing is im not really for hospitals.
a hospital stay is almost no different than staying physically in your house for a long period of time. to me its worse. if you go becuz your a threat - the being locked in and medicated makes sense. if your not a threat - the whole sitting in a day room and doing an activity or group every now and then serves no real purpose. its boring too. most hospitals are like that.

if you are extremely low functioning i would understand going to the hospital too.
but...beyond the threat and if your fairing even a little well doing what they call "activities of daily living (ADL)"...then why go?
