You will typically be placed on an involuntary 72 hour hold w/ suicide watch. If you don't switch to voluntary hospitalization in that time a judge can place you on an involuntary 14 day hold in a hearing. If you don't switch to voluntary hospitalization in that time the court can put you on involuntary commitment for 6 months, which can be repeated.

Details of this vary by state.
