A member asked:
Could people with major depression, or who have nervous breakdowns end up in a asylum?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I don't usually hear: The word asylum. Some depressed people benefit from inpatient psychiatric care. Reasons for admission might be suicidal thoughts, thoughts of harm to others, losing touch with reality or being so impaired that one isn't able to handle daily functioning.
