    Not necessarily. Depends on if you honestly do have some sort of disorder. If it’s because emotions and personal things, you may be referred to a psychiatrist who specializes in suicidal feelings. Also depends on your job and age. For example, if your a doctor, your license may be temporarily suspended until they know it is safe for you to go back to work. Also since you are willingly going to therapy, you will get more leniency if they even are considering anything of the sort. (Just to throw it in there, if you have a spiritual need or want spiritual help from the bible, I can help you with that. Of course, this will not wipe away your problems, but it can bring great help and comfort. My email is [email protected])

    that is usually the qualifying question.

    hospitalization is somewhat of a “school”. there are very many rules and there is some work you’ll have to do.

    a person’s rights are greatly restricted when in the care & custody of “authorities” and during evaluation, you might not have any control whatsoever over what will or will not happen.

    there isn’t anything “cool” about going to a hospital. you might be a candidate for a “partial hospitalization”, which is like an all-day or partial-day “treatment program”.
