Is there such thing as a sectioned slow cooker?
I have one, but it only has two sections, not multiple. It sounds like you're looking for something from Sam's or BJ's or another wholesaler that would provide something like that for hot dog fixings or different appetizers.
Would I be sectioned for telling my GP this?
I decided to write a letter to my GP to describe how I was feeling, make an appointment and just let him read it. I have real trouble expressing how I actually feel and I'm scared of doctors/psychiatrists, so I thought it might be easier. There's one paragraph that I might not include though, and it's: "When I feel low, I get suicidal thoughts. At first it was just thinking "what if?", but now it's becoming more common. I've made a detailed plan and have written a note, and next time I feel down (which could be any time) I lose control and rationality and I know I could well do it and have came very close to it twice (I was interrupted and ran away). It's really scary not being in control, because I don't know what I'll do next and when I get like that, I can't and don't want to stop or be reasoned with. I really just want to die now, I can't face living like this." It's all true, and it was very hard to write. I feel like I can't do this anymore and I need to kill myself now and stop burdening my amazing friends and family; but one small, rational part in me that comes out occasionally when I'm feeling calmer (like now) says that this isn't normal. This rational bit in me is quashed most of the time though, and it scares me. If I did show my GP that, would he have the grounds to section me? I am NOT going into a hospital. If he did try, I think I might flip out and run for it, but if I did try and run I'm guessing they could stop me. The thought of it is making me all shaky and tense :S I know that you can be put into a hospital if you're an immediate risk to yourself, and I think I am. But it's hard enough writing the letter, let alone going to a doctor and losing my choice. I just know I can't go on like this, and I know deep down that I need help. But if I was faced with a doctor and the prospect of being locked up, I know I would panic and lash out :S So yeah, could he force me into a hospital?
What is it like to be Sectioned?
i have been sectioned before several times! in several different hospitals. Basically the section is soon dropped as you start feeling better. i was sectioned in one place for 6 months and somewhere else for 1 month the smaller section was much worse the hospital had padded cells and they put me in them several times but as soon as i was well they took me off my section and let me come home under the local crisis teams care! you can also be at home under section in different circumstances it can be a very distressing time but on the whole i have been treated very well!
In the UK, what does being sectioned mean?
Being detained under the powers given in the Mental Health Act 1983A relatively concise explanation of the details of this follows. I haven’t goneThe law gives provision for detention if someone’s mental health has deteriorated to the point that they are no longer able to make informed decisions around their care. This often coincides with serious risk to themselves or to other people.The Police are able to detain people who they believe to need care or control as a result of mental illness, and convey them to a place of safety for assessment. In public places this can be done under Section 136 of the mental health act, which allows detention for up to 24 hours, extendable by a further 12 hours. On private property an order from a magistrate is needed, under Section 135. This has similar powers of detention.Medical staff are able to detain people who are already admitted to a medical facility, again until such time that further assessment of their mental condition is possible. Nurses may hold someone for up to 6 hours, whereas the designated Doctor responsible for that patient (or their official deputy) may hold someone for up to 72 hours.These holding powers are there to allow for time whilst that person is held (for their safety) for a formal assessment to be made. This is normally by two Section 12 Approved Mental Health Practitioners (normally consultant psychiatrists and psychologists), for a decision to be made to lift that holding power. If not appropriate, then they will recommend formal detention to be made for assessment under Section 2 (28 days) or for treatment under Section 3 (6 months). These come will numerous legal protections and abilities to challenge, including taking the case to tribunal for review by external judges.Finally, the courts may order that someone is detained under section. Numerous provisions are made here, including Section 37 (hospital order post conviction), Section 38 and Section 47.Hope that helps!
If you are single, bipolar and have been sectioned 3 times under the UK Mental Health Act, what chance do you have of being a normal mother?
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder I and told I 'should not have' children because of it. And I don't. However I am now completely stable and off meds for years and I wish I had not listened to the 'advice'. I think that it is important to have a network of people that might help in case the person diagnosed with bipolar should get in trouble. Friends and family: before the person decides to have a child there should be at least three people who explicitly express a wish to take care of the child in case the mother should be hospitalized. If it is an option, it would be good if the person lived in a community. I also think that anyone diagnosed with a 'mental illness' should work on having the best self care they can: that means being very regular with getting enough sleep, exercise and a regular eating pattern of healthy foods. I think that if a person has a wish to be a mother she should NOT give up on that wish because of a diagnosis of mental illness.Of course there is a chance that the child will experience problems if the mother should struggle with mood problems or get hospitalized. In my opinion that is no reason to not have the child. Many children grow up under less than perfect circumtances and become wonderful people anyway. We cannot demand that it is guaranteed that the child will grow up under perfect circumstances before it is born. If we did, few children would be born.
Can someone get sectioned for their delusions?
I have Paranoid Schizophrenia got diagnosed about 1 year and a bit ago and i've never been sectioned ..yet that is.I'd like to keep it that way.But I've been having hallucinations(auditory & visual) that last longer and are more intense but not so often ..if that makes sense.Lately I've been seeing these little 5,10,20 cent piece clear circles that follow me everywhere I look but that only happens in the day time..and no it isn't dust.I've also seen this lady with black frizzy hair run through my kitchen and took something..but idk what? and she had this weird smirk on her face.My latest one was a wormhole (time warp) you know like the one Donnie Darko sees in the movie..well yeah and they last about 5 minutes except for the clear circles they last for hours on end..So what do you think can I be sectioned for that? and sometimes i'll get mad and start screaming my lung out & threatening to kill myself or others..but I never would I don't think.. So what do you think sectioned or not? Thank you!!
My computer the hard drive is sectioned in 2?
ignore the other answers i do not know why they bother, D: is the recovery drive you can use on boot to restore the computer to original settings or in some cases also to create recovery cds or DVds, it has a non standard version of FAT 32 so you cannot access it other than by pressing a function key on startup, it is not readable by windows but you can see it in the storage console, if C:is showing full your only option is a bigger capacity drive, you can clone your existing drive to a new bigger drive and keep everything intact using something like macrium reflect or driveimage XML
If I like to see porn a lot, would I get sectioned by the mental heath people?
Actually, it means you’re normal.
Section someone.. how long will it take?
Sectioning is only done if the person is a danger to them self or someone else. For example if they are likely to commit suicide, or stab someone. With eating disorders it would only be done if the person's physical health had reached serious due to lack of nutrition. If the person was ill enough to be sectioned then it would be irrelevant if they were back home for Christmas or not because the treatment would be essential. Sometimes the section is dropped but the patient is asked to remain in hospital and will be resectioned if they do not comply with the treatment. For example a patient who has been on a high section may be dropped to a lower section before Christmas and allowed home for a day, under the condition that they come back to hospital to finish their treatment. Alternatively if the patient gets help on a voluntary basis they will not have to worry about these restrictions.
Should they sell a sectioned turkey at Thanksgiving?
As many have said, you can usually buy a turkey breast. Frozen turkey breast are available all year. However, if you don't want to be limited by the pre-packaged turkey breasts, take any fresh turkey to the meat counter and let them know you want it the whole breast. They may cut off legs/wings/back and give you two packages, all for the price of the original whole turkey. Or they may sell you only the breast (at a higher per/lb price) and resell the trimmed pieces. Of course, you could always bring home a whole turkey and do the sectioning yourself. Not for the squeamish.
