    I don't fully understand what you are saying but if you are asking are you hospitalised when you first get diagnosed bipolar then no not usually. They normally give you some Information and ask you to look through it and think about which medication you think would be more suitable for you. It's a slow process as they don't just take you into hospital or grab the prescription pad they make sure you have thought things through about how you want things to go. The only time they would admit you is if you are clearly not in control, If they are struggling to get through to you or believe you are a danger to yourself.

    Kamran,

    I have had bipolar for many years and been sectioned

    (to hospital) many times.

    You will only be put into hospital if you are very very ill. For example,

    I normally (joke?) have been arrested etc and hospitalised when I

    become very unwell. This is called 'mania'. Imagine someone dancing

    down the street singing, laughing, screaming (at those who laugh),

    obstructing all cars and traffic and ending up in a church demanding

    that the crucifixes be burnt because me myself and I am the spiritual

    centre of the turnibg world. Then the police arrive etc. And that is how

    you end up in hospital OK.

    You are not like that so DON'T WORRY 😊!

    With a handshake in thought...

    Marek
