How Do Commit Someone for Alcohol and Drug Treatment?
Question by chocolate: How do commit someone for alcohol and drug treatment?
[rewrite]My mother is an alcoholic and drug user. She needs to be committed to a treatment center but she will not go. Last week she slit her wrists and went to the emergency room (50 stitches) but they let her go. I did not know until afterward that she had done this. How can I have her committed if she won’t go on her own? If she attemps suicide again, can I have her committed? Thanks.
