Well done webpage.

Maybe also ask how did the word ‘schizophrenia’ coin? Schizo (split) and phren (mind) if I remember correctly, although it does not mean split personality.

In Michigan, psychosis alone is enough for involuntary admission. For example , I was once committed due to one comment I made saying Satan was affecting my life and making it suck. That got me involuntarily committed! I was not considered a harm to myself or others. @SzSupportAdmin

The question is worded “what are the typical requirements…” I think that leaves room for exceptions to the rule. Thanks for pointing that out , though @Lilyofthevalley

It also says : "In most jurisdictions " in the explanation of the correct answer.
