I did not say, nor ever advocate for a anyone to be treated against their will. Ever.
It should be your right to choose.
I stiil believe that if your are an academic community to which certain rules are held - than if you should choose to try to kill yourself, then you are either given the choice to try to accept help or leave school. I don't the point to trying to go to school if you are planning to kill yourself anyway - that was one of points of the article - you are working to finish a 4 year degree - for a future -
you don't *need* to be in school to suicide. But that's beside the point. It's not *forcing* someone into treatment if you say to someone "doing x.y.z has this consequence - if you choose not accept the consequence - (in this case go gte help) than you can longer be a part of the community. here is absolutely nothing wrong with that. In this community there are rules that if you do not adhere to, you are essentially asked to leave for a period of time. It's not *forcing* you to do anything.
Psych associations train people - they have no clue or idea that giving someone a degree, they will hurt a patient. It is insincere to think otherwise.
