Man walks into a psychiatrist office. He tells the doctor he speaks in an unknown dialect to a “god”. Is this person committed to an
insane asylum?psychiatric institution? Why or why not??72 hour psych hold at minimum and definitely not allowed any government job
Certainly. It's a delusion.
Considering insane asylums don't exist anymore that would be a no. But yes, they should probably be prescribed a mandatory stay at a psychiatric facility.
So since insane asylum is not used anymore, you couldn’t go ahead fill it in with psychiatric facility? The pedantry never ends
They have different connotations. The words we use are important. We don't refer to people as "retarded" anymore either for a similar reason.
In the US, unless he's a real direct threat to themselves or someone else's safety, they would not be detained. People are allowed to be insane as long as they aren't imminently a real direct threat to anyone's safety.
What if they’re running around nude? Or screaming threatening profanities or making offensive gestures? Many other symptoms could accompany psychotic dillusions which would lead to being involuntarily committed
I agree that they should be hospitalized in that case, but more than likely, they would be arrested in the US.
