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.

  1. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I’m salty myself, being an Ohio state fan, but Miami is winning by the smallest margin. Indiana going to be hard to beat
  2. M @ meepmoopmeep: I’m salty about the SEC being eliminated but good for Miami. it was a well fought game by both teams
  3. M @ meepmoopmeep: Imagine being a 10 seed barely squeaking into the playoffs becoming a cinderella team
  4. M @ meepmoopmeep: I think they can beat Oregon, but Indiana is too good
  5. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Who thinks Miami stands a chance vs either team (Oregon or Indiana) my bet is Indiana but you never know
  6. S @ sporidicus: delete this though, if it's the wrong place
  7. S @ sporidicus: sorry I don't think I know what this is for. but It's the #4 edition
  8. kemdawg99 @ kemdawg99: @sporidicus reddit maybe? What mag?
  9. kemdawg99 @ kemdawg99: Anyone heard of ethyl midazolam, cyclopropyl midazolam or ethyl flualprazolam?
  10. D @ dhertz9192@gm: Delete
  11. Thoth @ Thoth: @sporidicus honestly depends on the mag. Read read read read the forum
  12. Thoth @ Thoth: CFP needs more of an NBA or MLB playoff structure but that would be hard to structure. Divisions inside Leagues
  13. S @ sporidicus: or is there a better place on the forum to ask
  14. S @ sporidicus: can anyone help me with a chemistry problem? someone purposefully poured powdered sugar into my mag, i need to see if i can clean it off. any chemists here?

  16. D @ drdrizzy13: Yea it will be tough but I think they might just have enough. I guess we will see what tomorrrow night?
  17. M @ meepmoopmeep: if miami can take down ohio then anything can happen, lmao
  18. M @ meepmoopmeep: i feel like they deserve it after all of the drama. at the same time though, Indiana is extremely good and will be a mountain for Ole Miss to climb if they make it to the championship game
  19. D @ drdrizzy13: I wouldn't mind seeing Ole Miss win either out of the teams that are left.
  20. M @ meepmoopmeep: Ole Miss has the chance to do the funniest thing ever and win a championship without Kiffin
