Section 3 of the mental health act?

We Answered:

Hey. Im afraid that the only way to get out of there is to comply with their wishes. Convinve them that you are ok. I know it may seem awful, but dont resist. If you have to be restrained and continuosly resist the staff then they are jut going to keep you there. Convince them that you are ok and getting better.
Wow! I cant believ you are allowed a laptop!. I live in UK too but ive never been sectioned so i dont know what its like

Good luck chuck x

I have been on a section 3 under the mental health act....is it still possible for me to work in America 6...?

Yeah, once you are release and fine, you can work.

Basically, you are just being kept/hospitalized until the doctors feel you are fine to leave. Once you leave, you are free.

I dont think that is true , I dont think you have to disclose your mental health status at all. Can you find out the requirements.......or call an airline and ask anonymously., or something.

Does it go down on your permanent record if you are submitted to a psychiatric ward under section 3 of m.h.act

We Answered:

You don't need to inform a future employer of the section. Don't worry even if the employer does know they are not legally allowed to discriminate after all that was a hick up and you are now back on track.
