How can I see my girlfriend?

My girlfriend was recently admitted to
the stress unit for a psyc evaluation.
Every since then her family won’t allow
any contact with me what so ever. She
wants to see me because I went to her
mom’s but they flipped out and took her
in the house.. they won’t even let her
near a phone.. is there anything I can
do?

YOu can't do anything: being her "boyfriend" is not a legally recognized relationship and does not give you any rights vis-a-vis her. If she is in for psychological evaluation, her family has the right to control her visitors; if they won't let her have any contact with you, you can't override their decision. If/when she is released, she can then see you, of course.
