Because his freedom will be taken away from sometime between 3 to 30 days. Any other mental issues that he has, such as say NPD, will also be made public. If in a psych ward it is impossible to drink, go to parties, hang with friends, etc at his convience and leisure.
MOO
IMO Pistorius does not suffer from GAD and Nel knows that. Nel has been going on about "it is always about you". Nel has accused him of lying and OP has also been accused of acting in court. IMO if OP is sent to a Psych ward for 30 days, he will come out with another diagnosis and that is of Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
It is important to expose the lies of a narcissist in court as they usually act very convincingly.
This is some of the advice of Sam Vakim, a narcissist himself:
How do you "break" a narcissist in court?
Distinguish the factual pillar from the psychological pillar of any cross-examination of a narcissist or deposition made by him. Narcissists are superhuman in their capacity to distort reality by offering highly "plausible" alternative scenarios, which fit most of the facts.
Narcissists find the following devastating:
1. Any statement or fact, which seems to contradict his inflated perception of his grandiose self.
2. Any hint that he is subordinated, subjugated, controlled, owned or dependent upon a third party.
3. Any hint that the narcissist is weak, needy, dependent, deficient, slow, not intelligent, naive, gullible, susceptible, not in the know, manipulated, a victim, an average person of mediocre accomplishments.
4. The narcissist is likely to react with rage to all these and, in an effort to re-establish his fantastic grandiosity, he is likely to expose facts and stratagems he had no conscious intention of exposing.
5. The narcissist reacts indignantly, with wrath, hatred, aggression, or even overt violence to any infringement of what he perceives to be his natural entitlement.
6. Narcissists believe that they are so unique and that their lives are of such cosmic significance that others should defer to their needs and cater to their every whim without ado. The narcissist feels entitled to interact or be treated (or questioned) only by unique individuals. He resents being doubted and "ridiculed".
7. Tell the narcissist that he does not deserve the best treatment, that his desires are not everyone's priority, that he is boring or ignorant, that his needs can be catered to by any common practitioner (medical doctor, accountant, lawyer, psychiatrist), that he and his motives are transparent and can be easily gauged, that he will do what he is told, that his temper tantrums will not be tolerated, that no special concessions will be made to accommodate his inflated sense of self, that he is subject to court procedures, etc. – and the narcissist will likely lose control.
8. Contradict him often, disagree with him and criticize his judgement, expose his shortcomings, humiliate and berate him.

I think that Nel has been doing an excellent job of exposing OP for what he really is. I therefore believe that if OP is now evaluated for 30 days, the "diagnosis" will change and it is time that his enablers and the court were informed about which disorder Pistorius actually has and it it is NOT GAD IMO!
