Required show up to psych?

[EternalSkies]

So recently I was put in the psychward for 2 days after doing several things in a few weeks.
Thing is after I am let out I need to go to my regular psychiatry place to make sure they think I am fine after being let out.

I tried to cancel this. Which I have many times before. But they say I have no choice in it? They have been slightly threatening sometimes
that if I don't show up they will take action. So I have showed up mostly before. One time doctor threatened to come home to me if I don't come.

I don't get how they can require me to show up when I am not forced? Im stressed out about what will happen if I don't show up?
I thought I was done with them. After saying I won't show up if they book new appointments and that I never wanted to have this contact in the first place

Anyone in the nordics know how to deal with this? I don't want them to freak out just because I don't show up or whatever they are thinking

I've said they can discharge me several times. But mostly been ignored. Or more recently told they won't do that for my own safety. I thought
I was fine after I told them I won't show up to new appointments. As they went quiet for a month after that

Hey, I saw you attempted yew again as I got a notification when the other user quoted me from the old thread. I was wondering how you were doing actually as it's winter now and I was considering harvesting Taxus canadensis on the solstice but life got in the way. I'm not actively suicidal at the moment though I still keep the plant methods including yew in the back of my mind.

I don't have much to add about dodging psych authorities in the Nordics. Sorry you hit a rough patch again. I hope you find some peace of mind.

Im doing okay I guess but life is kind of similar to earlier this summer. I do more dangerous things more frequently. And sometimes I'm not even sure im thinking right myself. Like I thought it was a good idea to try an eat destroying angel twice. Fortunately for me I found the wrong type of amanita. Otherwise I'd have a painful death or living right now. Don't know what I was thinking with that actually. I was reckless. Done lots of things these past 7 months

If you're planning to use it I think you should probably be aware that you could likely die from it. Everyone reacts differently. Like I took 4 times the lethal dose of foxglove and my heart was veyr messed up for 5 days. But poisoninfo contacted the hospital letting them know another patient did the same thing in my country last year but took 1/4th of what I did and almost died and had to be in heartunit for 6 weeks. So its so different for everyone and dangerous

I've been doing dumb dangerous stuff over and over since last march.. I don't feel fully free from psych

When I attempted last October, I ended up in a mental facility for 2 weeks. They discharged me and scheduled an appointment for the following day. I went to that appointment and while explaining to the therapist what had led me to that point, they decided I should go right back to the facility. So I went back for another 5 days. When I was discharged *that* time, however, they had not scheduled a follow-up for me... and I told them I was leery because last time I was sent right back.

Long story short, since they screwed up and didn't schedule an appointment before discharging me, they lost their ability to enforce anything whether they could have or not. I did get a few calls at first for maybe a couple of weeks from someone wanting to schedule an appointment, but I never returned those calls and they stopped bothering me.

Your mileage may vary.

Thanks for sharing. I too have been there a couple of times. But only once for weeks. I just don't understand the "having to show up" part. Before I usually showed up for these but was never concerned too much. But this feels different since I've told them to leave me alone and I need to die etc. Im so stressed having to show up for someone elses comfort

Im not sure whether I should show up or not. Honestly I don't want to
