I don’t think they can 100% force you into it. You have to give consent one way or another. Definitely better to get that stuff taken care of before you wind up too gone. My sisters ex who is basically her brother now and a part of my family is going through a ton with all that stuff and has been locked up 5-10 times in the last year for it, and he’s finally making the choice to change.

Good on anyone that changes though, better in the long run.

Good luck!
