    So Leighton, your brother posted at 7:54 pm. You found his laptop 1 hour later, during this time he had been taken to hospital. On his laptop you didn't realise you had a sky account and logged on using your user name and password you didn't know you had and found out he had self excluded for 5 years. Ok........

    You missed the bit about the support worker coming round/phoning and advising him to self exclude for five years - which allibone did whilst Leighton was there but before Leighton found his computer - but, yes, that's what happened.

    ultimately i dont have to sit here and justify my brothers or my own actions. Ive explained the situation and you can mock as a group as seems the case on what ive read so far. All i will say is good luck to you. Everyone is an expert via a computer screen, just be careful which way you throw the hand grenades eh? Hope nothing similar happens in your lives.

    Hopefully your brother gets the help he needs. I spent a (thankfully) very short time in a psychiatric institution 20 or so years ago - voluntarily, back then sectioning was something of a last resort for psychiatric services who were very reluctant to section anybody - and the atmosphere was pretty hard going with lots of violence/patients who had transferred from prison on my ward. Like I say, I was pretty much in and out but I hope your brother encounters a more benign, more healing environment and I wish him all the best.

    Friendly suggestion, though: spend less time on here within hours of your brother's sectioning and more time offering support.

    All the best.

    Hi @leighton05

    I'm a little puzzled by all this.

    "allibone03" entered a Freeroll which started at 6pm, & finished 15th of 136, so that would have been a good while later, probably (just guessing) after 7.30pm.

    The thread was started at 7.54 pm.

    To suggest my brother played poker and therefore there could be no concern until he finished is bizarre wow

    So the doctors were contacted at 18.00

    Allibone03 was logged into his account at 19.54, time of the thread.

    He was at some point taken away by the doctors, but before being removed had then logged out of his account and into an account under the name leighton05

    Now call me cynical but...

    Think it's time to close the thread temporarily to allow frayed tempers to cool down.

    It will re-open at 11pm.
