[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 657074, member: 1550"] Copa, I did not read the entire post because this so alarmed me. He sounds like he might be seeing and hearing things or thinking there are secret messages to him on TV, all symptoms of schizophrenia. I don't know what you can do about it. Legally nothing. But if he says he wants to hurt himself or somebody else, call 911 and he'll be taken to a hospital. I believe he needs to be evaluated. But... The other possibility is psychosis due to drug use. When our k ids use drugs, we don't really know what they are taking. He could be on psychedelics or meth or who knows?Denouncing meth may be that he takes it. Or heroin. He could be manipulating you in a clever way. What they say when they are on drugs is usually not the truth. I would get in touch with the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill to see if you can get any information on what to do, or if you even can do anything. The people who gave psychotic people "civil rights" had their own delusions and no clue what psychosis is. Psychotic people can not be talked out of a psychotic state. It doesn't work. Do you have any information on the mental health of his biological family? That DNA is in him...eating at him...whatever it is. I'm so sorry I can't help you more. [/QUOTE]
