This caused much internal discussion. We didn't always know there were others we could call on for help. Then it took a long time to learn to ask who can help. Longer still to allow them. Should say there is beneficial & nonbeneficial assistance. There are quick ways to stop it but they usually result in a different set of problems. This reminded me of something my T said. We didn't tell him something that was going on cuz we were sure he'd try to hospitalized us. He said that would be very unlikely. He said he would accompany us if we went voluntarily & he may try to convince us to do go. But if he tried to force us, we could just convince the hospital it wasn't necessary. Thought he meant we were a good talker!! But yea, we could just have another disaffected do the evaluation. Other than something systemic say meds..we don't take psych meds.. can see how it would be difficult now to force hospitalization.
