But what if my suicide thoughts are strong enough that the psychiatrist decides that I need hospitalization? Will they still tie me up even if I agree to go in voluntarily?
I am not sure if she will say I need to be hospitalized or not, but I want to know if the outcome is that I will be tied up and humiliated if she says I need to. I am quite afraid of that.
I don't know the laws in Romania. All this stuff I read is in english from the internet, so most likely USA/UK. I can only asume in Romania is always as bad if not worse. Definitely not better lol.
