How do you live with someone who has Schizophrenia .? |
Issue This person is on medication but still has irrational behaviour,and is also getting counseling. Best Tip ok, what relationship do you have with this person? This can be very hard and stressful in any case. Know that there are different levels of severity. A person I know had to place his mom in a foster home cause he could not live with her anymore, although he tried very hard. But in my case I have a boyfriend who is schizophrenic. He is the sweetest man I know! He is well regulated on his meds and he does volunteer work 5 days a week. There are some tasks that overwhelm him though. If this person you are talking about is still acting irrational than perhaps there needs to be a change in meds. It can take time to find the right balance of meds and counseling! It can be hard depending on the relationship you have with this person. Whoever it is, understand this must be very hard on them and scary to at times. I think you should get some sort of counseling yourself on this matter on how to cope! Good luck! Others Fight fire with fire - be schizophrenic yourself. ;-) Have you ever heard two nut cases in the asylum having a conversation? Sweet. . I don't think you should live with a person who is mentally ill. There are support groups for families of the mentally ill. People who've been through it will have some good tips. Talk to your relative's therapist for suggestions. And keep reminding yourself...it's not personal. This person has a damaged brain that's every bit as "physical" a problem as MS or blindness. Good Luck! my cuzin is the same way theres relay nothing you can do just keep an eye on them even if its a loved one they can become very mean i was siting at his House one night and he just up and tryd to beats the life out of me so yeah I'm not telling you this to make you afraid I'm just saying keep an eye on them just for your safety You sit them both down and talk to them its very difficult, but if you care enough about them, you will be there to give them moral support which is what they really need. watch "A Beautiful Mind" (with russell crowe), it will show you. |
