If you voluntarily admit yourself to a hospital in New York because you are bipolar and don't think your meds are working can they decide not to let you leave without a doctor's consent?

If you voluntarily admit yourself to a hospital in New York...you become a "guest" of the state for 72 hours. They will evaluate your mental state and either release you, or you stay longer until a doctor says you can be released.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
