Hi!
I know someone that was diagnosed from several doctors with having schizophrenia.
Problem is he refuses help, and won’t leave the house. We can’t force him out, his siblings and I have tried everything to get him to leave.
What options do we have, what can we do?
He’s getting worse by the day!
is he taking meds, no?
you say he won’t leave the house, i was like that before medication.
you could try and tell him that taking meds will improve his life, it does in most cases, did for me.
for many, taking the meds improves their way of life. it’s just like taking medicine for an illness, the same way a person with diabetes takes medicine to control insulin.
Hey @Maggie7, welcome.
This thread will have more help in the family section of the forum.
