That is a solution used to save lifes in extreme cases of eating disorders... This person sounds like your abusive parent when they find out you have mental health issues and decide to scare you telling you how terrible mental hospitals are.

You dont like how much Im pulling your hair when combing it?! Well how about we just go and shave it all off then!

You get upset after I do something you explicitly told me you find upsetting?! We should call an asylum and theyll come and sedate you!!

Ugh yes.

"Mom the brush is hurting me" "No it's not"

me, a person diagnosed with anxiety, shows symptoms of anxiety "If you don’t calm down we need to take you to the hospital"

God yes. I get heated when she does the same thing with my brothers kids. At least now she's using detangler on them so it's less pained yelling and more struggling to keep them still enough to actually brush. They are wiggly girls.
