Thank you!!! Anyone that relate to this pls help me find answer.
I been with this guy for over 9 years and the last 5years had been nothing but hell.it was right after when he had his first child. That’s when I first start seeing changes in him. He would assume people is always talking bad about him. Accuse me of cheating. That everyone’s against him. He like to raise up his arm. He always talk to himself quietly and out loud. He see things that are not there. Mood always changes. He can get violent. Angry most of the time. Many and many more
If you don’t think it is schizophrenia related, why are asking us?
I mean, maybe you guys need counseling, I don’t know.
I never said it was’nt schizophrenia. I’m asking for help. Need to know what I can do to help him
If he’s been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia as you say above, and refuses medication, there isn’t much you can do, unless he’s a danger to himself or others, then it might be possible to have him involuntarily committed to hospital.
I don’t know if you want to help him, actually, it seems like you want things to be pleasant.
Listen, I have done some seriously ■■■■■■up things as a schizophrenic, but I’ve never lost my kids, and I’ve always kept my sense of humor.
If you want to help him, encourage the personal responsibility, and not that he owes it to you or the kids.
It’s a classic situation. People don’t even know what to do in that state, can’t see their own foolishness. Reluctant to acknowledge that there might be a problem until it’s basically to late.
It’s all our cultures ignorance.
Good on you for caring and reaching out. You’ll need the help of some people who know him personally to convince him he’s being strange.
If he’s already been to the doc about it, that’s huge.
I’m sorry this has happened.
Bryan, my father was a total ass, and he had no recourse, like schizophrenia.
I’m not saying hide behind an illness, but just realize that behaviors vary due to many different situations that are presented.
If women want the best case scenario, they need to not be a hindrance to the man that might be offering up his worst, at times, because he can’t be what is needed.
When I was psychotic I felt beset from all sides, and I lashed out to get my “tormentors” to go away. I think that’s common of many sz’s. The thing to do is get him on medications. They have long acting, timed released shots that would help if he isn’t med. compliant.
