Against your will, for about 6 hours till midnight, in PSYCHIATRIC room. It's after someone else called EMS/ambulance after buckling down on ground with weakness of knee
The laws vary vary state, but in general if you are a danger or yourself or others as a result of an apparent mental health condition, you can be taken in for an involuntary evaluation.Against your will, for about 6 hours till midnight, in PSYCHIATRIC room.

When the problem is causing you to be a danger to yourself or others at the time, yes.Thank you CdwJava. Oh? well, what do I do now? So they can do that as long as they said I have mental problem.
Thank you for you advice. I wish I'd know before head when I will kneel down. I'd know like a few seconds before it'd happened. And I need at least to buy grocery. That's why I freak out. My problems that I am weak, I weighted 70lbs for a long time as teenager (no eating disorder) but no disease very "healthy" on paper. Being weak is not an disease. So I can't even have a dr. to get me a disable parking stall. I have to do something.When the problem is causing you to be a danger to yourself or others at the time, yes.
If your problem is solely medical, then that is a different matter and you have a right to refuse medical treatment. From the sound of it there is more to the episode. Perhaps if you get involved in a program then they will not feel the need to bring you in next time.
The best way to avoid being committed for mental health issues is to stay out of the public eye when you are having an episode ... whatever it might be.
