Many Involuntary Patients Later Say They Agree With Intervention
Joan Arehart-Treichel

How do seriously mentally ill patients feel later about treatment that
was forced on them? No study appears to have addressed this question—
until now.

Would a severely ill psychiatric patient thank you later for forcing
medication on him or her?

If the patient regained full mental capacity as a result, chances are
good that he or she would. But if the patient did not, chances are
fair that he or she would not.
