All right, so we go to a psychiatrist, named Dr. C.

Dr. C saw my friend and his mom for a time. My friend is also multiple.

Dr. C told my friend's mom that he should be locked up because of the voices in his head.

What should we do? We don't want to not tell her, but we also don't want to be told that we should be locked up.

Any suggestions?

Please also keep in mind that the body is a 16 year old female...

OK... i dont know what happened to my original reply but I will try to reiterate what I said.... darn LJ's been eating my posts!
Basically I ran away from home so I could tell someone what was going on in my house. I ran TO someone I knew and they called my mom and she said to take me to the hospital. When I got there my mom fed them some story about MY behaviour and when I was given the chance to talk, she was in the room so it wasn't until a week later that I finally told someone why I ran. Eventually we did go to court and my mom signed me over to the state so I could live in a group home for older teens, one that was mainly for abused kids. So I was eventually believed but initially I was locked up cus I was the troublemaker.

Wow that sucks ass. I'm sorry that happened to you. Unfortunately running away is seen as dangerous behaviour and grounds to get a child locked up, until, a court hearing or released to their parents. Yeah it sucks but as a juvie that's how it goes.
