You can asked to be admitted for your safety etc but not be be sectioned. You are sectioned if you are deemed to be a danger and not wanting to or have the capacity at that time to agree to treatment. What they wanted was an informal admission. I’ve agreed to go in before, I’ve asked for helped before and I’ve also refused it and been sectioned. I just get annoyed when anyone says they want sectioned as by definition that is detention AGAINST your will. Wanting the help and support and feeling you’d benefit from some intensive support is entirely different. Fact is there isn’t even enough beds throughout the UK to help those sectioned meaning crisis voluntary admissions are much rarer than even a decade ago.
I’ve seen some of the screenshots from the discord etc but I’m not a member. Apparently they were offered paracetamol and haribo. I don’t doubt they have mental health issues mainly brought on by their constant live streaming but I don’t think and see no evidence they majorly harmed yesterday, needing an ambulance and then presenting at A&E. I’m just so sick of their behaviour and making a mockery of self harm/sui and if they ever need genuine help then I hope they get it but acting up like this is doing them no favours.
Can see right through you Orion!!
