Answers:

You will be evaluated and based on there evaluation if your considered a threat to yourself or others you will be admitted to the psychiatric ward of a hospital for evaluation by a psychiatrist or medical professional. But if you refuse to be admitted the social worker at the hospital can get a court order from a judge to admit you to the hospital for a 72 hour evaluation.I hope this helps you and get better.

My Mom went to medical school



You will likely be admitted to the psych ward so that you can't hurt anyone and the psychiatrist there will help you with medications until they see that you're no longer a threat to yourself or others. I've been in this situation and this is what happened, they helped me a lot and now I'm starting to get better with lithium. =) Good luck.



honestly i believe they will get you help by putting you in some kind of therapy home to help you cope with your thoughts.good luck sweetie, sorry for your illness.p.s if you seriously feel like a threat to others i really suggest you should go before you get into serious trouble take care god bless you



They will send u to a psych ward. Good luck. Lol.
