My 17 year old was diagnosed with the beginning of physchophrenic. He yells and knocks on neighbors doors, climbs roof. I got a 3 day warning. If he doesn’t stop, we get evicted. It is taking to long to get him in for a medication evaluation. I really dnt want to. But i think i may hve to send him to a place to get stabilized on meds. As he is a weed smoker and he would have to be clean for 30 days. I dnt think he will do that being at home. He is very obnoxious and his room is a mess, he hardly eats, doesn’t communicate. It is very sad. He isn’t who he use to be 
Schizophrenia changes peoples minds
@Sweet, I’d like to encourage you to join our forum for Family and Caregivers that can be found at:
While this is a peer support forum 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.
Also, please let your loved one know about this forum as they may find it helpful.
Best of luck,
