i have some questions about a mental health center inpatient program (psychiatric hospital)?
I am 17 and i have depression and anxiety. I am on medication and i see a conselor. My anxiety has gotten really bad to the point where i have trouble leaving the house. My parents think im pretending and aren't supportive in any way. I think if i were to enter in an inpatiant program, i could focus on myself and geting better. Plus i would learn how to cope with it in my daily life.
So have you ever been to one?
What was it like?
How long did you stay for?
and are there any requirments to be admitted into the hospital?

What's the crime when a parent falsely commits a child to a mental health facility for ulterior motives?
Mental Health Centers will often accept minors if their custodial parent commits them and has health insurance to pay for their institutionalization. But when the parent is not qualified to make such determination as to the true mental health of the child, what crime has the parent commit for orchestrating a false institutionalization?
Can the mental health facility be held liable for accepting a healthy minor and forcing them into treatment and medication when the minor has no mental illness or psychosis and does not need treatment or medication?
What is the body of law that governs patient rights of minors in this situation?
The parent won't specify what they believe is wrong outside of claiming the child is having anxiety attacks, yet there is nothing in the child's behavior or words that would indicate an anxiety attack. The mother talks over and ignores the child, and when the child gets upset for being treated this way, the mother says it is the child's fault and they are having an anxiety attack. The child now feels as though they cannot express any emotion whatsoever for fear the mother will label it disfunctional or suspect, and the mother doesn't even have a college degree and no training in mental health diagnosis or therapy. At worst, the child may need to learn to be more patient and not jump to conclusions, but after years of being trampled over and ignored, one can understand their trained frustration.
Is this legal for the people at my mental health center to do?
I go through a prescription assistance program for my medication for OCD and ADHD right now since the cost of medication is sky high and I am poor. My doctor prescribed my meds of course and I always get it through the program which sends it their to the pharmacy at the center I go to for my therapy and doctor visits. I have to re-enroll in the program every year, and I usually have enough meds to last me until they approve the application again, NOT THIS YEAR. They did not have one bottle left when I had to sign up for the program again. I am almost out of one of the medicines I take and the other may last me, I haven't counted it yet. They said they would have to wait until the application comes through and they send me more bottle. In the meantime I have talked to the nurse there about it and she said she would talk to the doctor about it. That was the first nurse I talked to, another one called me monday after she got a hold of the notes from the first nurse going to the doctor. She was totally braindead and didn't understand what I was telling her. She first made the assumption that I was now making enough money to not qualify for the program and I had to bluntly state that I am having to wait on more meds while my application goes through. Heck, I am making less this year than I was last year. I lost my job and had to settle for one that paid less until I could find another. Still no luck with the crappy job market. They said it could take weeks but one time it took a month to go through(but I had plenty of meds then). They said all they can do is talk to the doctor about getting on a cheaper medicine that is supposed to treat the same stuff, but with a different name until it all goes through. That will be tommorow before the nurse can talk to her since the doctor was not there today. I was told they were going to talk to her on Monday. I can buy a 30 day supply of the pills but they cost over 0.00. I know abruptly going off of medication can make someone sick and even make their behavior go bad(some have gone on shooting sprees), can these people legally do this to me?? I mean that is just stupid/
The people at the pharmacy told me that it was time for me to re-apply. They have do it at a various time each year. It is a we-tell-you type situation. I didn't know.
They don't have samples either.
