On February 5, Kim commented that she was admitting herself into an inpatient behavioral disorder home as soon as she could store some possessions. She estimated that it would be two days. Could this be where she is?

Current comment on this post indicates that she has been missing since late February and that her family has hired a PI.
I worked for a psychiatrist for 11 years. During that time, the husband of one of our patients called to ask if his wife had been in recently for an appointment, or if the Dr. (Psychiatrist for whom I worked) had ordered that she be admitted to a mental health treatment facility. We had not seen her recently, although she usually only came in once a month to renew her medication. She was bipolar, as I recall.
The husband later called back to say that he knew she was in residence at a local treatment facility because he saw her vehicle in the parking lot of the facility. Now, the patient was not estranged from the husband. They were living together at the time. I do believe, though, that he had been out of town for a few days on a business trip, prior to her admitting herself for treatment. They had no children.
Further, when one of our patients was taken to the hospital with a medical condition, induced in part by the serious side effects caused by psychotropic medication she had been prescribed (having to do with the summer heat and the patient becoming dehydrated), she was deemed to be "missing".
Her very best friend, who had been out of town for a week, returned and was unable to reach our patient. She went to her house, for which she had a key. She was not at home. In talking to neighbors, it was learned that apparently, our patient had called paramedics herself, requesting assistance, and she was taken to the hospital. Meanwhile, the friend was at a loss to determine WTH the paramedics had done with her friend (our patient)!
Attempting to assist her best friend (whom I knew well enough, through our patient, to know that our patient would want her to know her whereabouts), I proceeded to call around to the area hospitals/mental health inpatient treatment facilities -- only to finally learn, by some fluke (I can't remember how, exactly, the beans were spilled, honestly!), that she had been admitted as
"Patient Jane Doe No. 267" (for anonymity's sake, not under her own name)!
So it is possible that a patient, who admits herself for treatment, may be temporarily 'OUT OF IT" and not realize that she is being "searched for" by family and friends. However, if she had admitted herself for treatment back in February, I would think that having been in treatment for some time, Kimberly would be in a stable condition such that she would be either contacting loved ones herself, or be judged capable of making the decision herself as to who should be advised of her whereabouts.
I fear that she has met with foul play.
And it sure would make sense if LE were allowed to coordinate with medical/mental health treatment facilities to determine the whereabouts of "missing" individuals. Unfortunately, with HIPAA laws, I don't think that is easily done.
