My 18 year old brother was taken by police to the psychiatric ward of a hospital late last night, for attacking our grandmother. He has a history of mental illness, is on meds, and also is moderately retarded, with an IQ of about 55 (don't think this means he can't hurt anyone - he is almost 300 pounds and gets pleasure out of the pain of others). He's been in the hospital for behavioral/anger problems numerous times (he's also been in residental schools). He is violent toward many different people, and my parents and I would fear our safety if we were to take him back home (at least right now, if he can't go back to a treatment center or long term psych hospital). The hospital has drugged him up temporarily and decided that someone needs to pick him up, that he's fine to come home (for now..). We at home all know they are wrong, they have not seen him at his worst - but they are "threatening" to just release him (even if we don't get him). He cannot be on his own - can they do this?

I am a college student with mild retardation. I have a very difficult time knowing that this is who I am. People treat me really bad at school and always pointing out my disability. When ever I'm around people, I'm really scared and nervous because I know that they are looking at me because of my condition. What should I do?

He is very attached to me just like my own kid. I know that he'll die soon but I am providing all best things to him in terms of medication and the doctors. I am having hard time to accept the reality that he'll leave me soon ( because he has been with me for long time) Iam feeling very deppressed and sad and I think I won't be able to live without him. Iam so heart broken Please help me!! that is effecting my health and family.

My cousin's wife, she is 27 years old. Recently there's something wrong with her. She used to talk alot and had a very bubbly and helpful personality, but now she is very quiet. I donno what caused it. Maybe it was triggered by depression. She was an orphan and didn't grow up in a happy family. But now my aunt is taking good care of her. She even tried to commit suicide but changed her mind. Now she talks like a 3 year old and watches cartoons with the volume turned down. Its really serious. She can't recognize her best friend. Does anyone know what caused this and how to cure her ? Thanks.

Just wondering.......because I wasn't told no by the doctor or the pharmacist, but reputable online websites suggest not to use alcohol when taking it.

Also, if I know I am going to drink one evening, is it as easy as just not taking it for the night?

Thanks

I may be diagnosed again with schizophernia, but all the drugs I know of suck (haldol, risperdone)

Are there any Nootropic drugs that are prescrible for schizophernia with little or no negative side effects.

I figure if I can get Nootropics from the deal, it won't be all that bad to take medication..

any suggestions?

What kind of testing/treatment did they offer compared with a family doctor, internist, psychologist or psychiatrist? Did you find this beneficial?

I posted this in "Relationships, but I thought it applies here too:

I've been with this man for 7 years. Since I was 16. He's very "mentally unstable" He choked me a year ago to the point I passed out, he's attempted suicide, he's extremely overbearing and oppressive. How do I find the strength to leave him for good? I've already told him all of this and he called me begging and crying saying he knows, and he'll change. But I've heard all of it before. He'll never change. But how can I get him to see that we are not compatible anymore and that we must move on? It breaks my heart to see him in such pain. I'm afraid I'll go back just because I feel bad for him. Any advice?

He's been in and out of psychotherapy and meds, but won't stick to it.
