    Doctors have the same authority as therapists to detain people if they believe they are a danger to themselves. I get what you are saying though.

    Statistically, depressed people who see mental health professionals have better overall happiness and lower suicidality than people who do not.

    I guess I’m kinda sad, which is why I feel defensive about this. I apologize if it came off as abrasive earlier. Lol also I got like 2 hours of sleep last night bc my gf’s dog is probably dying and needed to go to the vet. It’s been a day.

    Could you explain what you are worried about? Like, just because they have the authority to detain you, are you afraid they absolutely will if they have the chance?
