I know that my lovely involuntary commitment to the psych ward is in my medical records but my question is when a potential employer does a background check, does that show up? I would think not since its part of my medical records and HIPPA protects me, but I know if I were to want to join the US military, LE or Federal Gov Agency they would find it but thankfully for me I have no interest in those fields. 

The cops threw me in there but I was never arrested, just "detained and committed for my own safety". Don't want this thing to effect my future any more than it already has. Thanks for your thoughts. 

P.S. Don't know if anyone one here is as crazy as I am, may need to post this question to the crazy people forum but thought I'd try here first. 

 
Medical records aren't accessible by potential employers, or by anyone else, without either your written permission or a subpeona.  As you mentioned, HIPAA laws prevent that.

 
Depending on what state you live in you won't be able to purchase a gun. You can never go into a field that requires a psych history (military/medical/law enforcement/and on). Employers cannot ask you about your medical history as it is confidential.

 
Ditto on what was said above. If you were put on a hold for evaluation and nothing came about it then owning a gun would still be an option. Just because you have someone that thinks they have large B__Ls does not mean squat. On a Federal firearm check you will be asked several questions 1 is are you on a habit forming drug. another have you ever been treated for any mental illness.

  2. A @ AnnaSofia: Welcome @jillybeans :)
  3. A @ AnnaSofia: @carterzeus Ronald is fairly new here so maybe he didn’t know what the SB is for. Looks like you’re new to the board, so welcome aboard. Anyway, yes we have an understanding that SB is just for basic BS and light convo. But sometimes people get in desperate situations and want to get advice asap. But it’s all good now. It’s more for safety to not air out certain things on the front page. Anyway hope everyone has a good day,
  4. Sakshi @ Sakshi: welcome @jillybeans ! :D

  10. A @ AnnaSofia: It’s totally ok @RonaldDonald i don’t own the place! It’s just for safety and stuff. My heart goes out to you. Lord knows I know how u feel. So many of us do. I’m glad we have people to lean on here.
  11. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @AnnaSofia my bad. I’m just really down bad right now. And yes we are all over his thread. I’ll keep the SB positive I’m sorry.
  12. A @ AnnaSofia: Thanks @Deepnorth !!
  13. Deepnorth @ Deepnorth: @AnnaSofia absolutely. Sometimes I cringe when I look at the shop box because I never knew what I’m going to see but I think you worded it very well.
  14. A @ AnnaSofia: I got cut off. .. be careful that it’s not some non-verified vend trying to swoop in and scam if u do post “who offers it.” Amd finally, I know I’m guilty but try to keep this stuff to DM’s or the forum threads instead of SB. Good luck Ronald!
  15. A @ AnnaSofia: whoever you guys are talking about I hope you have posted your experience in his thread so people know. I agree with Layne that a brand new vend is more likely to want to save the day. But also be careful
  16. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @st1ckyf1ng4z I wish I could man. I’m rural and new to town idk anyone.
  17. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: Hit the b10cķ if you’re in a p!nch, depending on where you are located that book is not hard to find. @RonaldDonald
  18. L @ Layne_Cobain: @RonaldDonald post your question about anyone who can express 4 or overnight in the “who offers it” thread maybe get a hit from one of these new vendors with that on the menu there’s a good # of them now
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: I know he talked such a good game with me when I emailed and in his thread @RonaldDonald and your right begging for ppl to leave good review but then ghosts everyone not a good look at all
  20. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @Layne_Cobain I have not :( and still nothing on ID. I’m freaking out and WDs are coming very soon. Idk why this dude cant just say something. I really trusted him, I could have/should have went with my regular. But no, homie was begging for good reviews and now he does some ghosting to new custees (3-4 of us) not good. ANYONE KNOW AN EXPRESS OR OVERNIGHT/2nd DAY with some #4
