Yet Again

That's absolutely terrifying.  Makes me paranoid.

i know that woman was a teacher and went voluntarily ive been in the phsyc ward 3 times in last 2yrs i am S&£ting bricks if it happens again i could end up at one of these ATU's

Is this following meltdowns?  Were they in public?  I was Sectioned once for three days because I became suicidal and rang for help.  The Samaritans called the police out - but because I was outside, sitting on the wall waiting, they Sectioned me for 'being in a public place.'  It was only for three days in the local MH hospital - but it was still terrifying.

Which is essentially what mine was at work the other week.  I wonder, if I'd been working anywhere other than an autism unit, what the outcome might have been.  If it had been a shop or an office, I could have been arrested and Sectioned, even though it wasn't technically a bad meltdown.

sometimes yes it because of a public meltdown
