As others have said the standard is "a danger to yourself or others." What it takes to get committed varies state by state. Where I live one "qualified individual" is enough to get you committed for a 72-hour eval. I think you do need to be as honest as possible, though. The only thing your pdoc has to go on is what you tell them, and to give you the best treatment they need all the pertinent information.
