my uncle has schizophrenia and i don't understand at all what he goes through but i let him know that i lve him sometimes he wakes up in the middle of the night and walks all around the house he drinks i think roughly like 2 gallons of water i'm not really sure but he talks to himself in the mirror he claps his hands and says alot of things that don't make sense like in spanish he will aways say dale la galleta for no reason my granny knows when he is not well he thinks he sees germs everywhere and goes into a cleaning frenzy we justb clean with him so he does not think we are against him it's strange but i do know he got it when he was 18 and he dissapeared for 2 months he lived in peru at the time and my family were so upset about he finally was found in a city called arequipa they found him completely naked and all he could say was that voices in his head told him to go there and do something i never really knew what the voices said to him but he has been on meds ever since i would like to know more about it so i can understand him more and not judge him
