On the other hand, without any contact person, a T or pdoc may have to engage the help of law enforcement if you are a danger to yourself or others if you refuse to admit yourself voluntarily (in which case your family almost certainly be involved after the fact anyway).

My T and Pdoc will contact my husband when they find it necessary that I go inpatient. I much prefer they go that route, allowing my husband to assist me in getting inpatient care, than the prospect of being admitted involuntarily. No, either way it isn't fun, but when I am at that point, that may be exactly what needs to happen for my safety.

Patagonia, none of here know what is going on with you or what your level of safety is. I hope you will find ways to communicate honestly how you are doing and get whatever care and intervention you need right now. It sounds like your T is highly concerned about your condition right now.
