I think I was remembering an episode of ER where there was someone who was in an impaired mental state who refused an injection for the treatment of some nonpsychiatric condition, so I'd assumed that sort of thing was an issue in real life too.
From the way the discussion was going, I'd latched onto the issues specifically to do with forcible psychiatric treatment, but yes, that isn't the whole of it.
