I have a question about a recent baker act. I was baker acted for a conversion disorder vs substance abuse. I don't do drugs I don't even drink. The hospitalist at the hospital baker acted me and said I would be there for a month. I was admitted at 12:03am. At 10am when I seen the psychiatrist he just said what happened and I told him I was in the hospital for respiratory failure and he said you don't need to be here I will discharge you asap. My real question is can someone be baker acted for a conversion disorder? You can google it. Not at anytime did I say I wanted to hurt myself and I did not take anything to make me go into respiratory failure. They did a drug test and found nothing in my system. I'm in Florida and I haven't found anything about being baker acted for conversion disorder but you can not be baker acted for substance abuse that is actually something called a marchman act. Which I don't even see how that could happen if they found no drugs in my system nor was I going through any withdrawals. Thanks.
