I have a family member who I believe who is a possible schizophrenic

I’m the only one he will talk to. I don’t know what to do. Can someone direct me of at least where to find some information, or perhaps your personal experience?

There’s a family version of this board…

You can request a wellness visit, the police will take him to the hospital. If you have 3 adults, the doctors will keep him for a few days for an evaluation. You maybe asked to write something up for a judge, not sure. That’s how it works here anyway,

@Timothy1 I’d like to direct you over to our Family forum, found at:

While this forum is for people with schizophrenia and other closely related psychotic disorders, the Family forum is specifically for people like yourself, who have a loved one they are concerned about.

Best of luck,
