As has already been said, sectioning is for when someone is refusing to go into hospital when it is deemed that they need treatment.

If you feel you need more intensive support you can ask for an admission. Do you have a psychiatrist or anyone you can ask? The other option if you feel unsafe is to go to A&E and see the duty psychiatrist and ask for an admission.

But if you arent unsafe, and you just feel like you need more intensive therapy, then it may be an idea to look at therapeutic communities and such places as acute psychiatric wards are really for short admissions to keep someone safe and they dont really offer therapy.



Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes but when you look back, everything is different…

you once called your brain a hard drive, well say hello to the virus.
