CaptCraig Posted January 3, 2022 at 04:41 AM Share Posted January 3, 2022 at 04:41 AM If someone goes to see a therapist for stress, anxiety or anger, does that put their FOID or CCL in jeopardy for revocation? Or is that more for being admitted into a mental health institution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euler Posted January 3, 2022 at 05:27 AM Share Posted January 3, 2022 at 05:27 AM 430 ILCS 65/1.1 said: "Patient" means: ... (2) a person who voluntarily or involuntarily receives mental health treatment as an out-patient or is otherwise provided services by a public or private mental health facility, and who poses a clear and present danger to himself, herself, or to others. If the therapist practices at a hospital or other facility, "someone" might have to prove to the ISP that he's not crazy. As long as the treatment doesn't get reported to the Dept of Human Services (which includes if Medicare/Medicaid/VA pays, too, I believe), I suspect he'd be okay. The danger isn't limited to being admitted as an in-patient. IMO it's a stupid law that just makes people avoid treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptCraig Posted January 4, 2022 at 02:56 PM Author Share Posted January 4, 2022 at 02:56 PM Thank you. That's how I interpreted it too. Typical for IL. politicians to self-perpetuate their 'gun' violence problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
