[quote=Anonymous]He can go voluntarily, or you can take him involuntarily, but that man needs help. Now. Not two weeks from now when the xanax (which may/may not help) gets here.

If he was curled up in the dining room suffering from acute chest pain, this would be a no-brainer, right? Mental health is no different. This isn't "a little sad" or "struggling a bit". Adults in the fetal position losing their shit (without a specific reason, e.g. a death in the family, etc.) are having some significant mental health problems that, in this case, are life-threatening. Don't mess around. [b]He doesn't get to argue.[/b] If he can get up and function, he needs to do so, effective immediately. I suspect that's not within his power at the moment, which means he needs to get help. And if he won't get help voluntarily, get it for him.

I know that sounds a bit harsh, but I say this as someone who put herself in a mental health facility after curling up on the couch and losing my shit. And it didn't cost me my clearance. And I'm much happier now.
