Yeah, someone pretty much has to be actively on the verge of suicide or doing harm to another to get committed. And then to get someone committed can be an uphill battle itself due to bed shortages.
My getting partially hospitalized was telling my doctor (in Indiana) I was driving home one day and saw an ambulance speeding down the road with its light and sirens on amd (my exact words to her) I felt compelled to create a great scene of irony with a tool normally used to save and preserve life being used as an instrument to end a life.
And that got me a step inbetween being fully committed and intensive out patient therapy (you actually move up to IOP in this program).
But since Ares is a kid, short of him attempting suicide or your bringing him in while he's raging their hands are probably going to be tied at the hospital.
Lots of clinicians haven't heard of partial hospitalization. Perhaps the doctor and insurance could do some sluething to find some lesser used route of treatment to get him seen one way or another.

Should I try to set him into a mania and just let him whoop my *** then and there? (Being serious. I would do it if it would help.)

That should do it.

 

[JustGeorge]

That should do it.

He started up while we were leaving... he bolted out of the ward and ran into radiology in restricted areas.

The security guard was not happy with the psych ward.

This partly reminds me why I left Indiana.

Conservative Family Leaves Red State Idaho After Moving There To Escape California 'Politics'

A conservative family moved from California to Idaho but decided to return due to difficulties "fitting in."

www.yahoo.com

"We decided after 3 years in Idaho, we are going back home," the family stated. "We wanted to move to a Conservative state, but we realized what it would mean to fit in." They continued, "It would mean we would need to be judgmental. We would need to gossip about others. Have our kids forget how to say please and thank you. Talk bad about new people moving here for a better life."

Did you get his name? He witnessed it happen and at this point it would hurt to add his name to your case.

I didn't, but I was there when he chewed them out.

Can't do it with a kid, but I just remembered a "trick" back in Indiana people would do increase their chamce if getting committed was to go in very high.

Ares is a kid, true, but they should have paid attention to the psychiatrist.

And maybe your rules are different, but in CA someone can be put on a 72 hour involuntary hold on the decision of someone qualified (Under California law, only designated professional personnel can place a person in 72-hour hold, often called a "515O." They can be police officers, members of a "mobile crisis team," or other mental health professionals authorized by their county.)

That should have been enough as well given the recommendation.

Our "severe weather" is heat.

 

[JustGeorge]

Just floods here. Minor, though.
