I never had anything like this happen. One time I was on a crisis step down unit and my mental health center came to pick me up I though I was being discharged home for I had been there a week and doing well. Well one of the other patients on the unit told the staff I was taking glass and stuff and hiding it in my room. They always do searches and never found anything in my room. Well my mental health center said since I was not safe there then they had no choice but put me in a state mental hospital. I was stuck there for months. I had lawers and a huge fight before a judge finally ruled that they can't go by another paitents word. I was mad. The worst and sad part of this was that the other paitent also went to my mental health center. She told me when she got home she was going to commit suicide. I told the staff and they said I said that to get out of going to the state hospital. I later found out that she did commit suicide.
