How do i find out if someone has been placed in a nuthouse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Nuthouse" ?: I'm assuming that by "nuthouse" you mean a psychiatric hospital, an inpatient facility in which people are treated for psychiatric illnesses. Some people use this term to intentionally insult, or to express their discomfort. If you want to know whether someone has been hospitalized, ask him or her. Psychiatric hospitals protect patients' confidentiality, & do not reveal their names or status.
