In my case, I've been involuntary and voluntary. The only one that can force me to go to the hospital is my doctor, or my landlord with a 302 warrant. I live in supported housing so my landlord / director of the Fairweather Lodge and make me go in. I usually will go in voluntarily if I can choose. I've only been once involuntary. My records have been flagged a few times from my attempts at self injury while still in the hospital. You really have to be acting out or escalating for them to put you in seclusion or in restraints. I'm usually a calm person for the first few days but then I get agitated very easily. Go in voluntarily if you have the chance.
