Help anyone been 136-ed?

[wonderworld]

i guess this is for the brits on here.

I was wonder what it was like to be sectioned 136, been thinking of jumping, but in case I get caught and taken to a place of safety suite, was wondering what its like, I'm assuming it just like a psych ward for short term.

Happened to me a few weeks back.
Exact same scenario as you describe.
Went to go jump off some cliffs.
Wandered about,chilling whilst at the same time looking for the optimal place to leap from.

So,this bloody woman decides I've been on the cliffs too long,on my own...

Rozzers turned up,would not listen to reason. Was 136'd.

Nope,wasn't put in the actual psych ward.
I'd describe it as like a slightly more elegant police cell.
Bed,table,chair nothing else. Door to room was wide open and the staff just chatted to me.
The evaluation team arrived some hours later.
Released me and I caught a taxi home,which they paid for.

Was held less than 5 hours,I reckon,and that was only because the eval team took so long to show up.

I'm located in the states. The name of it varies state by state, but the state I'm in it's called 302ed. Unless it's emergency circumstances, usually it's up to 72 hours evaluation.

What he said, but we have been held in the same place, prob same police force
I was held for 18 hours on one occasion, can't recall the amount of time in the other place, but considering I normally end up in those places at 1/2am, time makes no difference

what did you say to get out of sectioned 2 ?

Nothing special. I'd tried to tell the po-po from the get go I was only up on the cliffs having a lovely day,taking photos and sharing them with me mates on a webforum...
You'll face a panel of three shrinks who will quiz you. Answer them however you feel you want to.
I wasn't psychotic in any way.
Obviously,I'd opened my throat with a circular mini saw,but y'know,they let that one slide.

You can choose to deny being suicidal,or you can tell them you are.
It's up to you. Even if you do tell them you're suicidal,they may not section you.
If you're rational and they don't detect what they deem to be delusional thought processes or whatever,they'll likely let you go.

At least,that's how it is down here. Things have changed. 7 years ago,I was 136'd for walking up to the post office with no shoes on...
Thesedays,I can attempt to top myself until it works,without fear of being sectioned at all.

Nothing is set in stone,lovely. This is a purely hypothetical scenario right now.

you can talk your way out of that shit, they quoted me on something I said prior, I managed to wrangle it and was discharged wihtin couple hours!
At this point with this covid shit, they don't want to section people, they don't want the extra paper work etc.

i tried to jump in front of a train a few weeks ago. unfortunately it was a Sunday so there wasn't many trains (i blame my impulsivity) so i ended up hanging around for a while which resulted in someone reporting me.
Long story short. got 136'ed. spent 4 hours in a suite, assessed, told them id planned it for a month. the result i got sent home alone in a taxi at midnight and still have 0 support from my mental health team. Nobody cares! do what you want

So had you opened your throat with the saw on the same night you were up at the cliffs, and they saw the wounds you had but still didnt section you!? If so, how did you talk your way out of that one? Sounds like they couldnt give a toss, to be honest!

Yes,I was on the cliffs with the wound still open.
I linked to the thread that documents it. Bit jumbled,because a lot was happening,plus the police confiscated my phone for hours.
I don't have to put much effort into talking my way out of anything,with them.
I shrugged it off as self-harm,then this shrink tried to ascribe his own,fanciful explanation for my motivations.
Was sent home.
I don't want to expound too much. I cannot go into my actual motivation for being determined to die.
It's my stomach issue,that has utterly destroyed any quality of life I had.
So,no real benefit in locking me in a psych ward.
I'm quite happy they don't bother.

Nobody cares? Oh yes they care. They want you to kill yourself.
