    Ive only ever heard this as a random anecdote with no real evidence. Not saying it doesn’t happen, but I’d guess the percentage of people who do is probably miniscule.

    • When I worked at an inpatient psychiatric hospital, we had a few regulars who would self-admit to the detox unit just to have a place to stay with free food

      Edit: there was no judgment about this though btw- if there was a bed available and they met admission criteria, they’d be admitted regardless of their intent
