    Psychiatrists say they will attempt to manage patients through ACT alone, but most end up on a CTO. Giving the patient an opportunity to co-operate with the treatment is better than deeming them to be unlikely to adhere as soon as the process starts. Most clinicians try not to immediately place the person on a CTO; they would prefer to develop a therapeutic alliance with the patient and then place them on a CTO if necessary. This is possible with ACT because it provides a safety net when testing a patient’s ability to adhere to their treatment plan. One family member explained that “when you’ve got an ACT team coming in…and you do go off your meds, they’re going to be aware”.…

    This poem is about racism and discrimination. In this situation, the reason why I choose this poem was because the author has a positive attitude and I also enjoy this poem. From this poem, I learned how people discriminate each other in different forms and ways like when people talk behind your back or even force you to do something that you don’t really like. It reminds me of a previous experience I encounter, which was getting a perfect score on a test, and my classmates accused me of cheating. Therefore, I do not really like this part of the poem, because it reveals the unpleasant side of human beings.…
