✍️ Printable Declaration Included
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is say no — calmly, firmly, and legally.
If you or someone you know is ever placed in a mental health facility and wants to refuse forced medication or psychiatric evaluation, there’s a way to do it safely and lawfully.
⚖️ What You Can Say — and Why It Matters
📄 Under the U.S. Constitution and federal law, you have the right to refuse treatment unless a court determines otherwise.
This includes:
- The right to informed consent
- The right to be treated with dignity
- The right to refuse psychiatric medication unless found incompetent in court
And most importantly:
🧠 You cannot legally be medicated or restrained without due process unless you’re proven to be a danger to yourself or others.
