A member asked:
Can you please tell me if i will be admitted to a psych ward if i go to a&e for an overdose of anti-depressants?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Watch out: If you do overdose, you may never make it to a psych ward, but might die at home. And, if you survive, more likely would be admitted to an intensive care unit first.
