Trying to stay away from 330.1401 Penal Code in my mind




OK, so I post allot, but as I have said, this is for me and I am almost sure this will only be read over in my mind and not others. It’s like putting a post on Saturn, no one has ever been there and when they do get there I will be gone.
Cracking up is the easy way out for those who do not have the responsibility I have no choice as I am the provider of many and the "Rock" that keeps them together. It sucks. Only I have put myself in this position. The Vintage Man that I am has to show the strength and perseverance to overcome all obstacles. This is one of the reasons my wife married me as she states. The "Man in me" as some would say. When all falls down, I must be standing. I have shown this through my life no matter how miserable it is or affects me.
It is not easy to keep it together when the gale force winds of pain are flying at me. The strength I received from my relationship is gone as I have been casted off. Trying to stay sane while drifting in and out of insanity with no help has turned into a difficult challenge for me I have gone to some counseling help, but in the end it just starts me thinking more and more and the reason I sat in the chair becomes irrelevant.
So I just read over and over and try to remember the Penal Code when I am alone. Those points are like dodging a truck, which as this Vintage Man I have done all my life.


MICH. COMP. LAWS ANN. § 330.1401. (1) As used in this chapter, "person requiring treatment" means (a), (b),(c), or (d):

(a) An individual who has mental illness, and who as a result of that mental illness can reasonably be expected within the near future to intentionally or unintentionally seriously physically injure himself, herself, or another individual, and who has engaged in an act or acts or made significant threats that are substantially supportive of the expectation.

(b) An individual who has mental illness, and who as a result of that mental illness is unable to attend to those of his or her basic physical needs such as food, clothing, or shelter that must be attended to in order for the individual to avoid serious harm in the near future, and who has demonstrated that inability by failing to attend to those basic physical needs.

(c) An individual who has mental illness, whose judgment is so impaired that he or she is unable to understand his or her need for treatment and whose continued behavior as the result of this mental illness can reasonably be expected, on the basis of competent clinical opinion, to result in significant physical harm to himself, herself, or others. This individual shall receive involuntary mental health treatment initially only under the provisions of sections 434 through 438.
(d) An individual who has mental illness, whose understanding of the need for treatment is impaired to the point that he or she is unlikely to participate in treatment voluntarily, who is currently non compliant with treatment that has been recommended by a mental health professional and that has been determined to be necessary to prevent a relapse or harmful deterioration of his or her condition, and whose noncompliance with treatment has been a factor in the individuals placement in a psychiatric hospital, prison, or jail at least 2 times within the last 48 months or whose noncompliance with treatment has been a factor in the individuals committing 1 or more acts, attempts, or threats of serious violent behavior within the last 48 months. An individual under this subdivision is only eligible to receive assisted outpatient treatment under section 433 or 469a.
