A conversion disorder is not a threatening mental illness. It isn't like the person threatened to harm themselves in anyway nor when they have physical symptoms have they harmed themselves. Now if the have a conversion disorder and say I want to kill myself or hurt somone then I thought that was reason not just a mental illness by itself. Otherwise more than half of America would be baker acted. Thanks for responding.
