I've read comments from people claiming to be inpatient also. I always assumed they were in another country where the rules might be different. (still very stupid) Also,, exactly what are you supposed to say to someone who is so ill they need inpatient care? Get better? The wrong word could really set someone off and that's not fair to either the person hospitalized or the person posting outpatient. For example PC has many forums. Some would be grossly harmful to someone truly ill and inpatient. I wish PC had a rule that you can't post while on a psych unit. It does no one any good.
