Here's a little secret to avoid an involuntary committal: Don't open your door for police, and keep your doors locked. The police are the ones who come to serve the pick-up order from the psych hospital. They are NOT allowed to force entry into your home for a mental health pick up. They can and will attempt to open any door in your front or back yard that they can get to. If your door is unlocked, they are legally allowed to open it and go inside looking for you. If your door is locked, they are not allowed to break it down without a warrant (which they won't have for a mental health pick up, not unless you also committed a serious crime)

Just don't open the door for police, no matter how loud they knock and call for you. After around 72 hours the pick up order is dropped. Typically police will only make 1 or at most 2 attempts to pick the person up before they give up

thanks for the advice
