Such a person needs therapy; probably antipsychotic medication, and possibly a mood stabiliser, unless the supplements and dietary modification below prove sufficient. A good support system will also be a big help. See bipolar disorder, at ezy-build * (below) in section 10. Bipolar usually involves major moodswings, which occur without apparent cause, and often over many months, or a matter of years, rather than days, as with most people (unless rapid cycling). I'd take 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements daily, replacing 2 of them with cod liver oil supplements in the winter months. Try the Lithium Carbonate, or Lithium Citrate (regular tests are necessary, for these) , before trying the other medications, and see how that goes, over a few months, and always check out anything first at http://www.drugs.com/, so you will be aware of the risks, and on the lookout for side effects. If not considerably improved, after a few months, consult your primary mental health care provider, If bipolar type 1, an antipsychotic may also be needed. Everyone should take the Omega 3 supplements, for its other health benefits: see http://www.mercola.com/ TASKBAR. Some people refuse medication, using supplements, and a selective, mostly raw food diet (I do not recommended trying this, if bipolar 1, unless you aren't troubled by hallucinations, or delusional states). Maintain the treatments for the depressive phase, in section 2, at * http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris and schizophrenia is addressed in section 40.

Every person has different needs, even if they specific orders. In order to solve these problems you most likely will have to delve very deeply into their childhood, and solve those issues.
That task is extremely hard to do, and I suggest you get a licensed professional to do it. I have many of those issues, except the Schizo. You must learn to keep it under wraps, and key, and cage.

the person you are talking about needs professional help, but everyone deserves love and care. This is not this persons fault. It is a disease/brain disorder. It is like cancer except of the mind and it can be treated. Unconditional love and care( but always keeping your boundaries up when the love one has symptoms) helps a person with mental disability tremendously.

It won't hurt and can help somewhat, but what they really need is deep therapy and judicious medication. The person trying to love them had best be prepared for a really rough ride and know not to take any of the coming vitriol to heart.

Definitely can't hurt but be careful this kind of person needs more than just love and care they need psychiatric care as well. Will most likely be quite lengthy if not lifetime.

it is too much for one person, Without medication and therapy, most paranoid schizophrenics are unable to function in the real world. If they fall victim to severe hallucinations and delusions, they can be a danger to themselves and those around them

A lot! People go through crazy relationships everyday out of lust, love, fear, and plain habit.
