Tbh I think the bottom line isn't but should be, choice. Whether a person's Psychosis is 'manageable' or not. Obviously if they're a danger to themselves or others then they should be cared for in a safe place until the crisis has passed.
Interestingly, the Dutch psychiatric nurses which I did a project with, think we Brits are barbaric for giving mentally ill people anti-psychotics long term - paradoxically they use mechanical restraints for their mentally ill members of society. Go figure who's right and who's wrong if anyone - both are backed as evidence based practice in their own countries.
