i told the dr once that sometimes i just loose my mind and that I think about suicide but i could never do it and sometimes i get violent thoughts but i know i couldnt act out on them but they scared me and that i felt like sometimes i was an outsider looking into my own mind!.!.!.HE DIDN'T ADMIT ME!. he prescribed me Lexapro(an anti-depressant) and suggested finding someone to talk to!.!. so dont worry about being commited they wont and they usually dont unless you tell them im going to go home and do something stupid!.!.!.!. its important and great that you are going for help sometimes depression is on set by something that you just dont understand mine was an abusive ex and my new fiancee getting deployed a person can only take so much and dont find shame in talking about it!.!.!.!. you would be amazed at the difference it makes when you talk to someone who has been there and done that!.!.!. before and even after your dr apt find someone who has a similar situation to yours , sometimes its easier to talk to a stranger who you know you will never meet because you are free to say whatever and if they judge you they dont know who they are judging and if they have been there they will be the last to judge you!.!. but dont worry about being committed that isn't going to happen !.!.!. just relax and know that soon your head will be yours again and all the insanity inside will go away!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
The doctor would admit you to the hospital if you wre a danger to yourself and/or others!.!.!.!.or having a serious, acute nervous breakdown/epidode/bizarre behavior!.!.!.!.!.!.otherwise - not to worry!. The doctor just acts you some questions and be honest and open with her/him!. The doctor may prescribe some medicine in order to help you - be open to taking it
That is wonderful that you are reaching out for help! It is good to let your feelings out - maybe you can have some therapy sessions too!.
Oh - if the doctor does admit you to the hospital - it can be a very positive experience!.
Try not to project what might or might not happen!. Just be honest and leave the result in the Big Guy's hands!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

One, you will not be admitted to the hospital!. Like others have said, when you are not a danger to yourself or others, then there's really no basis!. I work for a mental health and substance abuse insurance company, and i can tell you that most people just go and speak to mental health clinicians!. Is this doctor a medical doctor or a psychiatrist(also an md, but in the field of psychiatry)!? Don't be afraid, all they want to do is help you remove those fears away or help you with what your going through!. As for the pretty scary stuff, if its anything illegal( rape, molestation, etc!.!.!.) they might be forced to go to the authorities!. But i can assure you, you will not be admitted!. Don't worry about the appointment tomorrow, for them its just a session!. You will talk about yourself and you will understand that you're just going through some emotional stuff!. (and im not saying that you're feeling is just stuff)Www@Answer-Health@Com
I don't think your doctor will admit you to the hospital!. They will most likely refer you to a psychologist/psychiatrist to deal with the feelings you have been writing down!. They will probably just prescribe you an antidepressant for now and see how that works!. Don't be nervous doctors are generally good people who want to help you as much as you want help!. I hope you figure it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
First, you are amazing for getting help and opening up!.
Second, although you sound depressed, you don't sound irrational!. You indicated that you work which means you can hold down a job and aren't 'crazy'!. I highly doubt you'll get admitted, but most likely referred to a shrink for some sessions and maybe some meds to help!.
I truly commend your bravery, we all have issues!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
